What is Blepharoplasty?

— Blepharoplasty, also called Eyelid Surgery or Eyelid Lift, is a surgical procedure to tighten saggy eyelid skin.

— The doctors remove saggy skin from your eyes in the upper and lower eyelids.

— The goal of the procedure is to rejuvenate the appearance of the eyes by extracting saggy skin, droopy tissues, and fat deposits.

— It can be done in the upper and lower eyelids, according to the patient condition.

— The result is a younger look in the patient, eliminating the tired expression associated with saggy eyelids.

— In the Upper Eyes area: To raise hooded or droopy eyelids.

— In the Lower Eyes area: To remove eye bags and tighten loose skin.

— Both procedures can be performed at the same time or separately.

How do they perform Blepharoplasty?

The procedure is quick and safe. Be sure you have the best board-certified plastic surgeons. Remember that the doctors at VIVE Plastic Surgery are board-certified in Mexico and the US as plastic surgeons and members of high-standard medical associations.

— Upper eyelid surgery can take 30 minutes to an hour, while lower-lid surgery takes slightly longer.

— Regularly, it’s performed under local anesthesia. You’ll be numbed and sedated but awake.

— For lower eyelids surgery, you may have general anesthesia to make you feel more comfortable. 

— Discuss with your doctor what kind of anesthesia is better for you, depending on your medical record, your condition, and the procedure to practice.

— Before the procedure, your doctor will make some marks on your skin. It helps to design the operation and determine the amount of fat or skin to be removed.

— The doctors, anesthesiologists, and nurses will ensure that you are comfortable and confident.

— The surgeon performs the incisions following the natural crease of the eyes, so you’ll never have any visible scar.

— After removing the tissues and fat, the doctor sutures with a thin thread.

— Your eyes will never be at risk because the operation is performed only on the skin, without touching the eyes. 

— Depending on the procedure and the anesthesia, you may feel dizzy after the procedure. Take your time to go back home safely.

— Come with a relative or friend to help you to go back home and not drive.

— You’ll be home the same day without staying at the hospital for the night.

— If you come from abroad, consider staying the first days in our Recovery House or associated hotels, having professional assistance for your safety and comfort.
