Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)

Types of Blepharoplasty Procedures

‍

At N1 Plastic Surgery, we offer both upper and lower blepharoplasty procedures, depending on your specific concerns. Whether you need to correct drooping eyelids, under-eye bags, or both, our expert surgeons will customize the procedure to achieve your desired results.

• Upper Eyelid Surgery: Upper blepharoplasty focuses on removing excess skin and fat from the upper eyelids, which can create a tired or hooded appearance. This procedure is ideal for those experiencing sagging upper eyelids that may be impairing vision or aging the face.

• Lower Eyelid Surgery: Lower blepharoplasty targets puffiness, bags, and sagging skin beneath the eyes. It’s ideal for patients who are bothered by under-eye bags or dark circles, providing a smoother, more youthful contour to the lower eyelid.

• Combination Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty: For patients with concerns about both the upper and lower eyelids, a combination blepharoplasty can address both areas in one procedure, achieving a more comprehensive rejuvenation of the eye area.

‍• Transconjunctival Blepharoplasty: For patients who only need to address under-eye bags without removing excess skin, a transconjunctival blepharoplasty is performed through an incision inside the lower eyelid, leaving no external scars. This technique is perfect for those with good skin elasticity but noticeable puffiness or fat deposits under the eyes.

Our Blepharoplasty Process

‍

1. Consultation & 3D Preview: Your blepharoplasty journey begins with a comprehensive consultation where we evaluate your concerns, discuss your goals, and create a personalized treatment plan. Using Adoreal’s 3D visualization technology, you’ll see a preview of your post-surgery appearance, helping you feel confident and informed throughout the process.

2. Customized Surgical Plan: Whether you need upper, lower, or combined eyelid surgery, we’ll design a plan tailored to your anatomy and aesthetic goals. Our expert surgeons ensure that your results are natural-looking and enhance the overall balance of your face.

3. Minimally Invasive Procedure: On the day of surgery, our surgeons use precise, minimally invasive techniques to ensure minimal scarring and a faster recovery. For upper eyelid surgery, incisions are made within the natural crease of the eyelid, while lower blepharoplasty incisions are either hidden along the lash line or inside the lower eyelid.

‍4. Recovery & Aftercare: After your surgery, we provide detailed post-operative care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery. Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can return to normal activities within 1-2 weeks, with full results becoming visible over the next few months as swelling subsides.

Recovery After Blepharoplasty

‍

• Minimal Downtime: Most patients experience mild swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the first few days after surgery. These side effects typically subside within the first week, and many patients are able to return to light activities after 5-7 days.

• Return to Activity: You can return to work and daily activities within 1-2 weeks, though strenuous exercise should be avoided for 3-4 weeks to allow for proper healing.

• Final Results: While you’ll notice an improvement soon after the procedure, the full results of blepharoplasty will become apparent as the swelling diminishes over the next few months, revealing a brighter, more youthful eye area.

‍• Scar Management: Our surgeons place incisions in natural creases or inside the eyelid to minimize visible scarring. Scars typically fade over time and become virtually invisible.‍
