REVITALISE YOUR EYES AT REFRESH MEDISPA
An upper eyelid lift, or blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure aimed at rejuvenating the appearance of the eyelids by removing excess skin, fat, and muscle tissue. It treats drooping upper eyelids, restoring a more youthful and refreshed look to the eyes.
About Eyelid Lift
During the procedure, known as upper blepharoplasty, the surgeon makes discreet incisions along the natural creases of the eyelids.
Excess skin and fatty tissue are then carefully excised or repositioned. Techniques may involve muscle tightening if necessary, ensuring a natural-looking result. This method rejuvenates the upper eyelids by addressing sagging skin and puffiness, ultimately enhancing the overall appearance of the eyes.
Recovery from an eyelid lift typically involves mild discomfort, bruising, and swelling, which gradually subside over a week or two. Patients are advised to rest with their head elevated, use cold compresses, and avoid strenuous activities during this time. While initial results are noticeable shortly after surgery, full results become apparent as swelling resolves over several weeks.
