Description
Cosmetic eyelid surgery is designed to remove excess skin, fat and muscle from around the eyes to give a more alert and youthful appearance. The procedure can be done on the upper or lower eyelids or both at the same time or separately.

As you age, the skin around your eyes loses its elasticity. You may develop loose folds of skin on your upper eyelids and deep creases under your lower eyelids. Droopy eyelids can give a tired appearance as well as impair vision and cause frequent blinking and eye fatigue. Fatty bulges ('bags') can appear under the eyes when the structural muscles in this region weaken. Cosmetic eyelid surgery or blepharoplasty can remove the excess skin, fat or both from around the eyes resulting in a refreshed and younger appearing eye area.

Blepharoplasty is usually performed as a day case under general anaesthesia. Alternatively, the surgery can be performed under local anaesthetic. The eye area is anaesthetised with a local anaesthetic injection. A sedative may also be administered to allow the patient to relax. The surgeon will advise which type of anaesthesia is most appropriate for the individual.

Eyelid surgery takes one to two hours, or less if just the upper or lower eyelids are being done. For surgery on the upper eyelids, an incision is made into the natural lines and creases in your lids and in the wrinkles at the corners of your eyes. For surgery on the lower eyelids, the incision is made just below your eyelashes. This means your scars will run along the natural folds of your eyes. Excess fat, muscle and loose skin are removed and the skin is closed using fine sutures. If only fat is removed and there is no excess skin, the incision may be made inside the lower eyelids, leaving no visible scar. The blepharoplasty operation involves the eyelid structure and the surrounding soft tissues only. There is no interference with the muscles or organs of the eye itself. Therefore, there should not be undue concern about the possibility of any visual impairment.

After surgery, there will be some swelling and bruising around the eyes. This can be alleviated by the regular application of ice packs. It is also important to lubricate the eyes regularly with a lubricant eye ointment. Sutures and tapes are generally removed five to seven days after surgery. Eyelid surgery involves a relatively short recovery process with minimal discomfort.

Eyelid surgery cannot alter dark circles and fine lines around the eyes, nor can it change sagging eyebrows. Blepharoplasty is often performed as a single procedure, however, it can be combined with other facial rejuvenating surgery such as brow lift or facelift to create an overall more youthful appearance.
