Blepharoplasty
(Eyelid Surgery)
The eyelids are one of the first areas to show the effect of aging and fatigue. Drooping eyelids, dark circles, and puffy under-eye bags can make you look older than you are and may make you feel less confident about your appearance.
If under-eye concealers, targeted eye-firming creams, and getting plenty of rest hasn’t helped reduce the bags under your eyes, there is a way to permanently regain a more youthful and refreshed eye area: eyelid surgery.
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure to remove underlying fat and excess skin from the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. It is sometimes used to add an upper eyelid crease for those who have monolids. It’s a short and easy procedure that can significantly enhance your appearance. UELC has well-equipped cosmetic clinics for eyelid surgery in Vaughan, Brampton, and Toronto to help you.
Recovery from Blepharoplasty
Immediately After Surgery
Our staff will monitor your progress for a few hours after your eyelid surgery. You can go home accompanied by a family member or a friend once the anesthesia wears off.
Recovery at Home
For quick recovery after your eyelid surgery, keep the following in mind:
• Try to relax and rest as much as possible.
• Reduce screen time, including watching television, working on a laptop, using your phone, and reading for the first few days.
• Keep your head slightly elevated to help reduce bruising and swelling around your eyes.
• Your eyes may be sensitive to bright lights for a few days after the surgery.
• Take your medication regularly.
• Follow-Up Appointments
Our surgeons will schedule your follow-up appointment one week after your cosmetic surgery. You may return to work after around ten days of recovery and start light exercise two weeks after surgery. However, be sure not to strain your eyes and avoid strenuous activities until 5 to 6 weeks post-surgery.
FAQ
Your Questions Answered
What are signs of aging in the upper and lower eyelids?
Sagging skin that interrupts the contour of the upper eyelid and blocks one’s vision are signs of aging upper & lower lids. Other signs may include: 1. Puffiness or bags under the eyes; 2. Excess skin or fine wrinkles on the lower eyelid; 3. Drooping skin on the lower ey
Who can undergo eyelid surgery?
Ideal candidates for eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) are individuals with visible signs of aging around the eyes, such as drooping lids, puffiness, or excess skin that affects appearance or vision. Candidates should be in good health, have realistic expectations, and seek a long-term cosmetic solution. For those not seeing results with non-surgical methods, blepharoplasty offers a lasting option to refresh the eye area.
Lower Lid VS Upper Lid Blepharoplasty?
Upper eyelid surgery removes excess skin and fat to reduce drooping and improve vision, giving a more youthful look. Lower lid blepharoplasty targets puffiness and wrinkles under the eyes, reducing bags and creating a refreshed appearance. Both procedures can be combined for full rejuvenation.
How long does Blepharoplasty last?
Blepharoplasty results are typically long-lasting. For most patients, upper eyelid surgery can last 5-7 years or more, while lower eyelid surgery often provides permanent results, as the fat and skin removed rarely return. However, natural aging continues, and some may choose additional treatments later on.
