Blepharoplasty in East Lansing, MI | Ahmed Sufyan, MD

What is Blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty, or cosmetic eyelid surgery, addresses aging-related changes in the delicate eye area. As one of the most popular cosmetic procedures nationwide, this surgical technique effectively reduces bagginess in lower eyelids and removes excess skin from upper lids.

Understanding Eyelid Aging

Aging progressively reduces skin elasticity, volume, and firmness. Patients often experience:

• Loose upper eyelid skin folds
• Deep lower lid creases
• Muscle slackening
• Fat bulging underneath eyes

Ideal Blepharoplasty Candidates

Dr. Sufyan recommends this procedure for healthy adults experiencing visible aging signs around the eyes. Suitable candidates typically include individuals 35 and older with realistic aesthetic expectations.

Consultation Process

During a private consultation, Dr. Sufyan thoroughly evaluates medical history, examines the eye region, and discusses patient goals. He provides comprehensive insights into potential surgical outcomes.

Surgical Procedure Details

Performed in the East Lansing area surgery center, blepharoplasty involves strategic incisions within natural eyelid structures. The procedure typically takes 3-4 hours and can address upper, lower, or both eyelid regions.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect minimal downtime, with most returning to normal activities within 8-10 days. Upper eyelid surgery results generally last approximately seven years, offering a long-lasting rejuvenated appearance.

Potential Limitations

While blepharoplasty effectively restores a youthful eye appearance, it cannot completely eliminate surrounding wrinkles or address issues like dark circles. Dr. Sufyan can recommend complementary treatments during consultation.
