What is Eyelid Surgery?
Eyelid Surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a cosmetic and medical procedure that addresses the upper, lower, or both eyelids. It involves the removal or repositioning of excess tissue and reinforcement of surrounding muscles and tendons. This surgery can address issues such as under-eye bags, drooping eyelids, and puffiness that contribute to a tired or aged appearance.
“Had an eyelid surgery with Dr. Davidson. He and his assistants were wonderful. The surgery was a success, already I can see the results even though I’m still in recovery. Dr. Davidson was thorough and was interactive with the patient, making sure the patient understood the process, and be comfortable throughout. His verbal communication with everyone in the room created a relaxed yet trusted atmosphere. Also, it was a team approach, as the assistants played their respective roles supporting Dr. Davidson which made the process smooth and effective. Overall I felt 100% positive with Dr Davidson and with his assistants.”
Candidates for Eyelid Surgery
Ideal candidates for eyelid surgery are individuals who experience functional issues with their eyelids or who wish to improve cosmetic concerns such as drooping eyelids, excess skin, and fine wrinkles of the lower eyelid. This procedure is ideal for those looking for cosmetic enhancement and those whose vision is obstructed by excessive eyelid skin. The best way to determine your candidacy for eyelid surgery is by scheduling a one-on-one consultation at Rostami OPC in McLean, Virginia.
Eyelid Surgery Treatment
At Rostami OPC, eyelid surgery is tailored to each patient’s needs. The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation and takes about one to three hours, depending on whether both your upper and lower eyelids are treated. Incisions are strategically placed in the eyelids’ natural creases to minimize visibility. Fat is repositioned or removed through these incisions, the muscles are tightened, and excess skin is trimmed to rejuvenate your eye area.
Eyelid Surgery Recovery and Aftercare
Recovery from eyelid surgery usually involves some swelling and bruising, but discomfort is typically minimal and can be controlled with the prescribed medication. Most patients can return to normal activities within seven to ten days. Our experts at Rostami OPC will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery, including information on how to care for your eyes, medications to apply or take to aid healing, and when to follow up with your surgeon.
Eyelid Surgery Results
Results from eyelid surgery at Rostami OPC can be instantly noticeable. Your final results will emerge once your swelling and bruising subside. Eyelid surgery enhances your appearance by making the eyes look more rested and improving your field of vision. The final results from eyelid surgery are typically long-lasting, giving patients a more youthful and refreshed look for the years to come.
