What to Expect from Our Sugar Land Texas Cosmetic Eye Surgery

If you are wondering why friends and family keep asking if you are tired or sleepy, you may want to check out the appearance of your eyes. Your eyes are the focal point of your face, and most people will look directly at your eyes during a conversation. Consequently, puffiness and excess eyelid skin around your eyes can give you a tired, unrested, and haggard appearance. Fortunately for you, Plastic Eye Surgery Associates offers quality cosmetic eye surgery, like blepharoplasty.

Blepharoplasty is an eyelid procedure that removes excess skin and muscle from both the lower and upper eyelids. The underlying fatty tissue produces bags under the eye or pooches out above the eye. The fat around the eye can be selectively removed or repositioned. Even more, blepharoplasty is great to improve drooping skin and bagginess. For patients with lower eyelid problems, they may be able to get the eyelid treated without any external incisions, and thus, no visible scar.

Additionally, blepharoplasty can help improve the vision of older patients who have excess skin and fat that is drooping over the eye. One thing to note is that blepharoplasty does not remove crow’s feet or other wrinkles, eliminate dark circles around the eyes, or lift sagging eyebrows. As such, eyebrow drooping can be addressed with brow lifting techniques. Furthermore, here are some reasons why you should consider undergoing blepharoplasty:

  • Puffiness or bags under the eyes
  • Excess skin or fat surrounding the eyelids
  • Droopy eyelids

General Overview

Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure with a tiny incision in the natural contours of the eyelids. This allows for minimal or no scarring. The surgeon will generally work on the upper eyelids first to remove fatty tissue and excess skin. Sutures are then placed into the eyelid crease incision to close the skin.

Next, we focus on the lower eyelids to eliminate puffiness and reduce herniated fat.  Everyone has fat in the orbit that acts like a cushion for the eye. With time and aging, this fat starts to fall forward, creating the look of bags under the eyes. The lower eyelid fat is then removed and repositioned into hollow areas, similar to filler under the eye but with your own tissue.

In most cases, the procedure will take about one to three hours. The procedure may take longer if additional cosmetic procedures are being performed, like a brow lift or forehead lift. In the office we may also use injections, like Botox, Juvederm, and Restylane, to reduce fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes. Above all, blepharoplasty can help you improve your quality of life, making your eyes look younger and refreshed.

Recovering from the Procedure

In most cases, the post-procedure instructions call for rest and limited exertion to speed up the healing process and recovery time. Every now and then, patients will report minor pain associated with the procedure that can be addressed with oral medication. Instructions for cool compresses and warm compresses will be given.

Complications are rare, but patients can still minimize the risk by carefully following the directions given after the surgery. Bruising and swelling are expected in the first few days. The healing process for blepharoplasty is normally shorter than the other forms of cosmetic procedures, about 1-2 weeks. With that being said, the benefits are long-lasting. At the end of this process, patients will have a more rested and youthful appearance.

Benefits of Cosmetic Eye Surgery/Blepharoplasty

As we have mentioned throughout this article, blepharoplasty can be a very beneficial procedure. If you are thinking about undergoing an eye surgery procedure, you should aim to be as informed as possible. Nonetheless, here are some of the many benefits that come from undergoing blepharoplasty:

Improved Vision

In some extreme cases, your vision may be affected by upper eyelid drooping or puffiness. As such, improving vision can be a major motivation to undergo blepharoplasty for affected patients. Even in milder cases where vision may not be noticeably affected, the patient may still experience a slight improvement in their vision after removing excess skin and fat in the eyelid.  Patients also report that their eyelids feel lighter, thus making them feel less tired.

Smoother Forehead

If your upper eyelids are affecting your ability to see, you may end up getting into the habit of raising your eyebrows for a better view. By doing so repeatedly, you’ll contribute to the deep furrows in your forehead. You’ll eliminate that brow-brunching habit and the forehead wrinkles that accompany it by removing the extra weight through a blepharoplasty.
