Eyelid Lift (Blepharoplasty) in Beverly, MD

Understanding Eyelid Lift Surgery

An eyelid lift, or blepharoplasty, is a specialized facial surgical procedure targeting the delicate eye area. Since the skin around the eyes is exceptionally thin, it often demonstrates the earliest signs of aging, creating wrinkles and puffiness that can make patients appear perpetually tired.

Procedure Overview

The eyelid lift removes excess skin and fat from upper and/or lower eyelids, providing a rejuvenated and refreshed appearance. When both upper and lower eyelid surgery are required, the upper blepharoplasty is typically performed first.

Ideal Candidates for Eyelid Lift

• Patients with heavy upper eyelids
• Individuals with puffy under-eye bags
• Those experiencing a constantly tired or angry eye appearance
• Patients with visual field impairment due to sagging eyelids

Surgical Procedure Details

The eyelid lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia, typically lasting approximately one hour. During the procedure, excess skin and muscle tissue are carefully removed, and remaining tissues are strategically tightened to achieve optimal results.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect initial recovery within 4 days, with full results becoming visible after 4-6 weeks. Most individuals experience brighter, more alert eyes with a more youthful appearance. Swelling gradually diminishes over 2-4 weeks, and patients are advised to avoid strenuous activities during initial healing.

Insurance and Financing

In some cases, eyelid lift procedures may be covered by insurance, particularly when visual field impairment is documented. Multiple financing options are available, including Care Credit and major credit cards.
