Rejuvenate Your Eyes with Blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty, more commonly called eyelid surgery, offers a correction to drooping upper eyelids and puffy bags below the eyes by removing excess fat, skin, and muscle. Castellon Plastic Surgery Center, led by board-certified plastic surgeon Mauricio J. Castellon, MD, offers blepharoplasty and other types of facial surgery for men and women who live in Melbourne, Brevard County and the surrounding communities of Central Florida.

WHAT IS BLEPHAROPLASTY?

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.

WHO IS THE IDEAL CANDIDATE FOR BLEPHAROPLASTY?

Dr. Castellon recommends blepharoplasty for men and women who look tired due to excess fat and tissue on the upper or lower eyelids.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF BLEPHAROPLASTY?

Blepharoplasty, commonly referred to as eyelid surgery, offers a variety of benefits aimed at enhancing both the appearance and function of the eyes. As a cosmetic procedure, it is primarily chosen for its ability to rejuvenate one's facial appearance.

When considering Blepharoplasty Melbourne patients can expect the following benefits:

  • Improved Vision: Removes excess skin that can impair peripheral vision.
  • Youthful Appearance: Reduces wrinkles and bagginess around the eyes.
  • Reduced Eye Strain: Alleviates the strain caused by droopy eyelids.
  • Enhanced Self-Confidence: Boosts self-esteem with cosmetic improvements.
  • Minimal Scarring: Incisions are strategically placed to minimize visibility.

BLEPHAROPLASTY RESULTS AND AFTERCARE

After blepharoplasty, patients can expect to see a noticeable improvement in their appearance. The full results of the surgery usually become apparent within one to two months.

During the recovery period after your blepharoplasty, it's important to follow all aftercare instructions provided by the surgeon to ensure proper healing. This includes resting with the eyes covered for a couple of days post-surgery, avoiding strenuous activities, and attending follow-up appointments. Proper aftercare is crucial for achieving the best results and minimizing the risk of complications.
