Eye Lid Surgery
   
 

Eye Lid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)


 

Introduction

The eyes are usually the first area on the face to show age. As we mature, we can develop lower eye bags and our upper lids can 'hood' our eyes, thus exacerbating the signs of age on our face. The Eye Lift will remove bags and hooding, so that the skin is tightened and the eyes look younger and brighter.

Procedure

The upper and lower lids can be operated on together or separately. Excess fat and skin is removed from the eye area, and the skin can be moved upwards and outwards to tighten it.

Recovery

An Eye Lift usually takes 1-3 hours to complete. Most people return to work within one week of their procedure.

Post-Operative Care

River Medical offer post-operative support to all our patients, and you will be advised of the actions you can take to relieve any pain and/or discomfort. You will experience some mild scarring around the socket of the eye. This will normally fade quite quickly. There is likely to be some initial bruising and swelling.

Benefits

  • Increased self confidence
  • Youthfulness restored
  • Vision can be improved
  • Deep lines around eyes smoothed out

Is this right for me?

The procedure is suitable for any mature person who is physically and emotionally healthy.

Things to Consider

It is important that you carefully consider any cosmetic surgery procedure. Your consultant will be pleased to answer any questions during your consultation and leading up to the procedure.

What are the risks?

Although Eye Lift surgery is generally a safe procedure, it does carry risks. These include infection, scarring, and delayed healing of wounds. You can minimise risk by following pre and post operative advice.

Questions to ask the doctor

  • What results should I expect?
  • What results should I not expect?
  • What different facial procedures can I combine?
  • Am I a good candidate for this surgery?
  • What can I do to aid a swift post-operative recovery?

Preparing for the procedure

You can prepare for your Eye Lift procedure by keeping to a healthy diet, to aid strength and recovery. During your consultation you should inform your cosmetic surgeon if you smoke or take medication and you will be advised accordingly.

Patient testimonial

"To whom it concerns,

I'm delighted with the results of my blepharoplasty. Mr. Chatzis must have a very good eye as well as a steady hand!
I don't know how he did such a good job within such a small space! Already, there is hardly any scarring to be seen.
I just look so much better. "
