How is Blepharoplasty Surgery Performed

Blepharoplasty – more popular as eyelid surgery in Delhi, offers a solution to restore and rejuvenate the appearance of the eyes, making the person look fresh, alert and younger. Many individuals suffering from drooping eyelids, sagging under eyes or under eye bags look at this surgery as a solution. 

But before making a decision in favour, it is important to understand the step-by-step procedure of Blepharoplasty surgery so that you are mentally prepared. 

Let’s get right into it!

Step 1: Consultation and Evaluation

The process begins with a consultation with an experienced cosmetic surgeon in Delhi. During the consultation, the surgeon will discuss your concerns, assess your suitability for the procedure, and understand your desired outcome. This initial evaluation ensures that the surgery is tailored to your unique needs and expectations.

Then comes the day of the surgery, when you reach the surgical facility for the procedure.

Step 2: Anaesthesia and Incision

On the day of the surgery, you will be administered anaesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. Once you are relaxed, the surgeon will make discreet incisions along the natural creases of your eyelids. These incisions are strategically placed to minimise visible scarring and allow for optimal access to the underlying tissues. 

In upper eyelid surgery, the incision is commonly placed within the natural crease of the upper eyelid. On the other hand, for lower eyelid surgery, the incision is generally made below the lower lash line or inside the lower eyelid using a transconjunctival incision technique. An experienced cosmetic surgeon in Delhi will always make sure the post-recovery scars of the incisions are always hidden in the natural skin folds and creases. 

Step 3: Tissue Adjustment and Removal

With the incisions made, the surgeon will carefully adjust and remove excess fat deposits, skin, and muscle tissue as needed. 

This meticulous process helps improve the contour of your eyelids, eliminate puffiness, and restore a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance. Your surgeon’s expertise ensures that the adjustments are precise, delivering natural-looking results after your Blepharoplasty eyelid surgery in Delhi.

Step 4: Closure and Recovery

After the necessary adjustments have been made, the incisions will be meticulously closed with sutures. Patients can generally expect some bruising and swelling around the eyes, which gradually subsides over the following weeks. 

Your surgeon will provide detailed post-operative instructions to guide you through the recovery process. It is essential to follow these instructions to ensure proper healing and minimise any discomfort. While the recovery period may vary for each individual, most patients can expect to resume their normal activities within a few weeks.

Overall, the actual procedure of Blepharoplasty surgery doesn’t take more than an hour. The recovery usually does not take more than a few weeks, and you can return to your regular life quickly after that.
