BLEPHAROPLASTY EYELID SURGERY MARLTON, NJ | SAMIR UNDAVIA, M.D.

UNDERSTANDING BLEPHAROPLASTY

Blepharoplasty, commonly referred to as an "eyelid lift", is a
precision surgical procedure designed to treat the upper and lower
eyelid complex. The primary goal is addressing drooping and puffy
eyelids while dramatically enhancing facial appearance with minimal
downtime.

AGE-RELATED EYELID CHANGES

As individuals age, the supporting structures surrounding the eyes
weaken, allowing adipose tissue to protrude through areas of orbital
septum weakness. This process, combined with excessive skin growth,
contributes to a tired, aged appearance. Blepharoplasty helps restore
a more youthful look by strategically removing excess fat and
tightening eyelid skin.

SURGICAL APPROACH

UPPER EYELID SURGERY TECHNIQUE

 	* Thin incision made within the eyelid's natural skin crease
	* Partial incision hidden near crow's feet
	* Precise trimming of excessive skin
	* Careful removal of protruding fat deposits

LOWER EYELID SURGERY OPTIONS

 	* Incision placement inside the eyelid or beneath the eyelash line
	* Customized approach based on individual anatomy
	* Potential fat repositioning to rejuvenate eyelid complex
	* Sutures removed within 5-7 days

PROCEDURE DETAILS

Blepharoplasty is performed on an outpatient basis, utilizing local
anesthesia with either twilight sedation or general anesthesia. When
combined with additional procedures, general anesthesia is typically
recommended.

RECOVERY EXPECTATIONS

Patients can expect minimal pain and swelling following the procedure.
Antibiotics and eye drops are prescribed post-operatively. Minor
bruising occurs, with makeup typically applicable within five days.
Most patients return to work within a few days and can resume full
exercise in 3-4 weeks.

PROCEDURE LONGEVITY

A typical blepharoplasty effectively sets the aging clock back
approximately ten years. To maintain results, patients are advised to
incorporate sun protection, avoid smoking, limit alcohol consumption,
and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

ALTERNATIVE TREATMENTS

Non-surgical alternatives include injectables such as Botox
Cosmetic®, Dysport®, Juvederm®, and Restylane®. A browlift surgery
might also be recommended depending on individual facial
characteristics.
