EYELID SURGERY (BLEPHAROPLASTY) NORTHBROOK, IL | AKHIL K. SETH, M.D.

UNDERSTANDING BLEPHAROPLASTY

Blepharoplasty is a specialized plastic surgery procedure designed to
correct sagging or drooping eyelids. The eyelid's thin skin makes it
particularly susceptible to aging, often showing the earliest signs of
tissue weakening. When eyelid muscles and tissue deteriorate, it can
significantly impact peripheral vision and daily activities.

TYPES OF BLEPHAROPLASTY

FUNCTIONAL BLEPHAROPLASTY

Functional blepharoplasty addresses eyelids that obstruct vision. This
medically necessary procedure may be covered by insurance when vision
is demonstrably impaired. Physicians use the Humphrey Visual Field
(HVF) Analyzer to determine the extent of visual field restriction.

COSMETIC BLEPHAROPLASTY

Cosmetic eyelid surgery focuses on aesthetic enhancement. Procedures
can target upper or lower eyelids, with techniques like
transconjunctival blepharoplasty allowing fat removal through internal
incisions, ensuring no visible scarring.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR BLEPHAROPLASTY

Optimal candidates for blepharoplasty include individuals who:

 	* Are in good overall health
	* Do not smoke
	* Have no serious eye conditions
	* Possess healthy facial tissue and muscle

THE BLEPHAROPLASTY PROCEDURE

Typically performed as an outpatient procedure, blepharoplasty
requires local anesthesia and sedation. The surgery duration ranges
from 45 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the specific areas treated.
Surgeons make precise incisions along natural eyelid creases, removing
or repositioning fat, tightening muscles, and excising excess skin.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Post-surgical recovery involves minimal downtime. Patients typically
return to work within a few days, with full healing occurring over
several weeks. Surgeons recommend avoiding strenuous activities and
protecting the surgical site during initial recovery.

POTENTIAL RISKS AND CONSIDERATIONS

While blepharoplasty is generally safe, patients should understand
potential risks such as temporary swelling, bruising, and rare
complications like vision changes. Scars are typically well-concealed
and fade significantly over time.

EYELID SURGERY (BLEPHAROPLASTY) IN BURR RIDGE, IL

UNVEIL A BRIGHTER YOU WITH BLEPHAROPLASTY

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, corrects the shape and proportion
of upper and lower eyelids to deliver a more rested and youthful look.
Dr. Neena Will performs precise surgical techniques to alleviate
hooded appearances and reduce under-eye puffiness.

 	* Loose, sagging upper eyelids
	* Excess skin under the eyes
	* Puffiness or tired-looking eyes
	* Good overall health
	* Realistic expectations

SIGNS OF AGING IN EYELIDS

UPPER LID AGING

As upper lids age, fatty deposits may appear, causing a puffy or tired
appearance. Skin loses elasticity, and gravity causes skin to gather,
potentially obstructing vision.

LOWER LID AGING

Lower lid aging can result in wrinkled skin, dark under-eye bags, and
drooping that makes eyes look weary and aged.

BLEPHAROPLASTY PROCEDURE DETAILS

Dr. Will performs eyelid surgery in the Naperville and Burr Ridge area
offices under local anesthesia. The technique varies depending on
whether upper or lower eyelids are being treated, with careful
attention to facial structure and symmetry.

RECOVERY EXPECTATIONS

Patients can expect:

 	* 5-7 days of home recovery
	* Potential temporary blurry vision
	* Swelling and mild discomfort
	* Results visible within 10-14 days

PTOSIS REPAIR

For patients with droopy eyelids, ptosis repair can address muscle
weakness affecting eyelid position. Some cases may be covered by
insurance pending visual field testing.

PROCEDURE COSTS

Blepharoplasty is typically considered an elective cosmetic procedure.
Dr. Will and her team will provide a detailed quote following a
comprehensive evaluation.
