An eyelid lift, also known as blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery, rejuvenates your eyes by removing small amounts of fat and loose skin from the upper and lower eyelids.
Many patients who have the surgery also experience better vision and fewer episodes of tired eyes because the excess tissue is no longer fatiguing the eyes. After your eyelid lift, you will have a more alert appearance. Dr. Castellon recommends blepharoplasty for men and women who look tired due to excess fat and tissue on the upper or lower eyelids. The lower eyelids may sag down to expose the pink tissue inside the eyelid. This can put you at a higher risk for getting debris in your eyes and contracting eye infections.

The full results typically become apparent within one to two months as swelling subsides and the tissues settle. Blepharoplasty results are long-lasting, with many patients enjoying their rejuvenated appearance for several years. While the procedure does not stop the aging process, it significantly delays the signs of aging around the eyes, helping you maintain a youthful, vibrant look.
Recovery from blepharoplasty is generally smooth with proper care. Mild swelling and bruising are common in the first week, gradually improving over time.
Patients are encouraged to rest with their heads elevated and apply cold compresses as directed by the surgeon. It’s important to avoid strenuous activities, heavy lifting, and direct sun exposure during the initial healing period. Most blepharoplasty patients are able to return to work and light activities within 7 to 10 days. Attending follow-up appointments and adhering to aftercare instructions are crucial for minimizing complications and ensuring the best possible outcome.
Except in rare cases, blepharoplasty is not covered by medical insurance. We are better able to provide a cost after your consultation. Castellon Plastic Surgery Center accepts payment by cash and check as well as credit card, including MasterCard® and Visa®. If you are interested in financing the cost of your blepharoplasty, we encourage you to apply with CareCredit® and LendingUSA.com.
