What is blepharoplasty surgery?

Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, is a procedure designed to enhance the appearance of the eyes by correcting sagging skin, excess fat, and drooping eyelids. It can be performed on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both, depending on the patient’s needs.

‍In addition to rejuvenating the eyes for a fresher and more youthful look, this surgery can also improve vision in cases where drooping eyelids obstruct the visual field.

A Rejuvenated Appearance: Removes excess skin and, in many cases, adjusts the fat pads to reduce the appearance of under-eye bags, creating a fresher look.
Improved Vision: Eliminates excess skin from the upper eyelids that may obstruct peripheral vision, enhancing both appearance and functionality by correcting eyelid ptosis.

Blepharoplasty is ideal for those looking to correct eyelid sagging, puffiness, or under-eye bags that can create a tired or aged appearance. If drooping upper eyelids are affecting your vision or you simply want a fresher, more youthful look, this procedure may be the perfect solution.

Recovery Schedule: What to Expect After Blepharoplasty Surgery

The First Week: Rest and Healing

During the first week after blepharoplasty, it’s essential to prioritize rest and carefully follow all post-operative instructions. Dr. Rodríguez will provide detailed guidelines to help reduce swelling and bruising, as well as to keep the surgical area clean. It’s normal to experience mild discomfort, a feeling of tightness, or dryness in the eyes—symptoms that can be relieved with lubricating drops. Most patients can resume light activities, such as walking, within the first five to seven days.

Weeks 2 to 4: Gradual Recovery

As the initial swelling and bruising begin to fade, you will start to see the first results of your eyelid surgery. During this phase, you can return to work and resume moderate activities, but it is important to avoid strenuous exercise, heavy lifting, or rubbing your eyes. Wearing sunglasses outdoors is recommended to protect your healing eyes from sunlight and wind.

Month 1 and Beyond: Final Results Take Shape

Within a month, most of the swelling and bruising will have subsided. Over the following months, the incisions will continue to heal and gradually fade, blending naturally with the contour of the eyelids.
