Often referred to as an eyelift, an upper blepharoplasty corrects the drooping and puffiness of the upper eyelid that can make you look old, tired or sad, as well as interfere with your vision. The procedure will also address the wrinkles and creases that can begin to appear on the eyelids, leaving you looking more rested and alert.
Upper blepharoplasty, or eyelid lift, is distinct from a brow lift, which elevates the eyebrow. These procedures may sometimes be done together.
Eyelift scars blend with the natural creases of the eyelids, so they’re less apparent. An upper-lid scar is hidden in the natural creases as best as possible.
An eye lift procedure alone takes less than three hours, and the recovery period is relatively brief. Expect about a week of swelling and several weeks for any bruising or discolouration to fully diminish.
After eyelid surgery, you shouldn’t wear makeup until 24 hours after all of your sutures are removed. It is also important to purchase new eye makeup, so you don’t risk contaminating your incisions with bacteria.
Eyelid surgery corrects droopy lids, sagging tissue and tired or puffy eye conditions. Corrections aside, the procedure is meant to restore youthful volume and smooth contours, but not to change the natural shape of your eyes.
