What to Expect?

Consultation

The journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with our experienced surgeons. During this session, we assess the extent of ptosis (drooping eyelids) and discuss your aesthetic goals. Your medical history will be reviewed to ensure a personalized approach tailored to your unique needs.

Evaluation

Our surgeons conduct a detailed examination of your eyelids, assessing muscle strength, eyelid symmetry, and the severity of ptosis. This evaluation guides the development of a customized surgical plan to achieve optimal results.

Anesthesia

Eyelid ptosis surgery is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation. This ensures your comfort throughout the procedure while allowing for a faster recovery.

Incision Placement

The precise placement of incisions depends on the type and severity of ptosis. For mild cases, incisions may be made within the natural creases of the upper eyelids, minimizing visible scarring. In more severe cases, additional incisions may be required to address underlying muscle issues.

Muscle Adjustment

The key aspect of ptosis surgery involves adjusting the levator muscles responsible for lifting the eyelids. Our surgeons skillfully tighten or reposition these muscles to restore proper eyelid function and improve symmetry.

Recovery

Patients can expect some bruising and swelling initially, but these effects gradually subside. Follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor progress, and specific post-operative care instructions are provided to ensure a smooth recovery.

FAQ

Is eyelid ptosis surgery painful?

Eyelid ptosis surgery is performed under anesthesia to ensure your comfort during the procedure. Mild discomfort and swelling are normal after surgery, but pain is typically well-managed with prescribed medications during the initial recovery phase.

How long is the recovery period?

While individual recovery experiences vary, most patients can expect to return to normal activities within 1 to 2 weeks. Strenuous activities and heavy lifting should be avoided during the initial recovery period.

Will there be visible scarring?

Our surgeons strive to minimize visible scarring by placing incisions within natural eyelid creases. Over time, any residual scarring tends to fade, and makeup can be used to conceal it during the healing process.

Are the results permanent?

Eyelid ptosis surgery aims to provide long-lasting results. However, factors such as aging and skin elasticity can impact the longevity of the outcome. Your surgeon will discuss realistic expectations and potential follow-up treatments during the consultation.

Can eyelid ptosis surgery be combined with other procedures?

Yes, eyelid ptosis surgery can be combined with other facial rejuvenation procedures, such as blepharoplasty or brow lift, to achieve a comprehensive enhancement. Your surgeon will assess the feasibility and discuss potential combined treatments based on your aesthetic goals.
