Am I a Good Candidate for Blepharoplasty?

Your consultation is the key to determining whether this procedure is correct for you. During this visit, your surgeon will assess your eye anatomy, overall health, and expectations.

The following are ideal candidates:

  • Adults with puffy or sagging eyelids
  • Individuals in good general health
  • Non-smokers with a stable health status
  • Those without serious eye conditions
  • Patients looking for lasting eye rejuvenation

What to Expect During Eyelid Surgery

Your journey starts with a personalized consultation in Calhoun, GA, where we’ll outline the best surgical plan for your features and goals.

  • You’ll receive either local or general anesthesia.
  • Incisions are placed in natural creases or inside the eyelid.
  • Excess fat, skin, and muscle are removed or repositioned.
  • Incisions are sutured to minimize visible scarring.

Eyelid Surgery Recovery and Results

Recovery is typically short and manageable. Most patients return to work or normal routines within one week. Swelling and bruising decrease over the first 10–14 days, with final results revealing a smoother, more open appearance.

Results generally continue to refine for four to six weeks and can last for years.

Eyelid Surgery Frequently Asked Questions

How long do results from blepharoplasty last?

Many patients enjoy results for five to ten years. Aging continues, but the improvements often remain noticeable.

When can I wear makeup again?

Most patients can resume wearing eye makeup in 10 to 14 days, once incisions fully heal.

Will insurance cover blepharoplasty?

Insurance will cover the procedure if it is deemed medically necessary due to vision impairment. We can assist with documentation if applicable.

What’s the difference between cosmetic and functional eyelid surgery?

Cosmetic surgery enhances appearance. Functional eyelid surgery improves vision by correcting eyelid droop.

Is scarring visible?

Scars are typically minimal and hidden within natural eyelid creases. With proper care, they fade significantly over time.

Are there non-surgical alternatives?

Fillers and skin-tightening lasers may offer modest improvements but cannot replace surgical outcomes for moderate to severe concerns.

What are the surgical risks?

Though rare, risks include infection, asymmetry, bleeding, dry eyes, and temporary blurred vision. Choosing a board-certified surgeon reduces these risks.

Can I combine eyelid surgery with other procedures?

Yes. It’s commonly paired with brow lifts, facelifts, or resurfacing treatments for full facial rejuvenation.
