The Essential Information On Double Eyelid Surgery

By Dr Ahnsup Kim

Beauty is all about definition and what better place to put it than the most expressive feature of the face – the eyes. The form of the eyelids can create character in one’s eyes and some find it necessary to improve because aging, stress or genetics can make them appear older than they are with saggy lids. This is why blepharoplasty or double eyelid surgery is becoming a popular procedure among many. But what do you really need to know about blepharoplasty surgery?

Blephraoplasty is a surgical procedure which is designed to remove the fats, excess skin and muscles both from the upper and lower eyelids. Usually it is done on Asian eyelids that are heavily drooped without any folds. Some think this makes them look tired or plain, and want to add some character into these peepers by creating double eyelids.

There are three types of blepharoplasty approach, the upper eyelid surgery, lower eyelid surgery and Asian eyelid surgery. It can either improve the marked hooding of the upper eyelid or also remove the puffiness in the middle and inner portion. Since eye bags are also one of the most unflattering features that can grace the face, this can be fixed by a lower lid surgery. Asian eyelid surgery on the other hand is a procedure which doesn’t really remove their ethnicity but to improve their general appearance.

In addition to their specific targets, blepharoplasty can also improve the peripheral vision, restore the eyelid’s youthful appearance and provide a more alert and rejuvenated appearance. In effect, it can give you with a renewed sense of self-confidence.

Prior to any incisions being made, one should pass as a good candidate for the surgery. Most importantly a person should be physically healthy to prevent any complications. Certain medical conditions such as cardiac diseases, hypothyroidism, and diabetes can make this procedure more risky than it is. It is also important that a possible patient is psychologically and emotionally stable to deal with the results, as well as to create realistic expectations.

The procedure would be performed with the doctor creating an incision and removing accumulated fat, skin and muscles. For the lower eyelids, aside from removing the surgeon can may also reposition the internal structures. After this, the surgeon will close it in a technique that will make the incisions aesthetically invisible by using very fine sutures. The entire procedure can last for three hours at most.

After the surgery, your eyes may have the tendency to dry up which is why you need to constantly lubricate it with artificial tears or eye drops. Severe pain may also be expected along with some swelling and bruising, but this can be managed and will soon dissipate in a few days. Your eyes may also become highly sensitive around this time, which is why you need to wear dark sunglasses especially when going out. The stitches will then be removed after two days.

The healing period would require that you prevent any activities that can stress your eyes unduly. Avoid doing computer work, reading books, or wearing contact lenses for a while. Double eyelid surgery will cost you around $3000-$6000 so better make sure that you are extra careful to improve the recovery process and aesthetic outcome.
