Candidates for Eyelid Surgery

Candidates for eyelid surgery are typical:

  • People with good health and without any illnesses that might delay recovery
  • People without significant eye problems
  • Individuals who do not smoke

Risks

Risks associated with surgery include:

  • Anaesthetic response and haemorrhage.
  • Infection
  • Damage in the eye muscles
  • Itchy and dry eyes
  • Colour change of the skin
  • Pain
  • Blurry eyesight
  • Potentially requiring revision operation

Before the Eyelid Surgery

Your physician will examine your overall health and risk factors, take pictures, and talk about possibilities for your eyelid surgery and the sort of anaesthesia to be applied. Also, to ensure that it is safe to do the procedure, the doctor will calculate your height and weight. Your doctor could advise postponing your procedure if you are obese, expecting a baby, or planning a pregnancy.

 You should be prepared to reduce your activities for a few days as your eyelids recover and plan to stay home.

How is Eyelid Surgery Done?

Eyelid surgery or blepharoplasty is typically done on an outpatient basis. Medications may be injected into your eyelids or intravenously to sedate them and calm you. To do surgery, an incision must be made along the eyelid’s crease or lower than the lower eyelashes. Afterwards, extra skin, fat, or muscle is removed, and the incision is fully closed. Generally, the scar will be concealed in the eyelid’s natural fold. Both general anaesthesia and local anaesthesia are options for the procedure.

A facelift or brow lift can all be performed simultaneously with blepharoplasty. It could take an hour to do an upper eyelid surgery. The lower eyelid procedure might take up to two hours.

After Surgery

You spend some time in the recovery area following surgery and you can go the day after so you can recover at home. After the operation, you may have vision problems as a result of the lubricating lotion such as sensitivity to light, swollen eyelids, swelling, and watery eyes, as well as a sensation of discomfort.

Recovery

To lessen puffiness, you’ll generally need to rest with your head elevated on pillows for a few days, use the recommended lotion or eyedrops, protect your eyes from wind and sun, and stay away from intense activities.

Eyelid Surgery Results

Wound and oedema often decrease gradually over two weeks after eyelid surgery, and the scars can take a few months to heal. However, after four to six months, they often fade.

The effects of surgery might endure a lifetime for some individuals. Others may experience recurrent sagging eyelids.

Side Effects

Following eye bag surgery, it’s usual to experience:

  • Teary, dry, or itchy eyes which may last a couple of weeks
  • Swollen and numb eyelids
  • Scars that slowly heal until they are completely undetectable

Eyelid Surgery Cost

The eyelid surgery has varying costs depending on having an upper eyelift, lower eyelift, or both. The prices can range from about £1100 to £1500 and are valid for a certain period. The costs include treatment, weekly check-ups, expert medical consultation, transportation, hotel discounts, translation, and other expenses.

You can get detailed information about prices and consultation appointments by entering your contact information in the form on the  Avicenna plastic and reconstructive surgery center page and our patient representative team will contact you.
