What is a Blepharoplasty procedure?
Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, removes excess skin and fat around the eyes to correct hooded upper lids or under-eye puffiness, restoring a more alert, rested appearance. Dr. Salim AYOUB performs upper blepharoplasty, lower blepharoplasty, or both together, often as a standalone procedure or combined with a facelift or brow lift.
Because the eyes are one of the first areas to show visible aging, even a conservative blepharoplasty can noticeably refresh the whole face. Dr. AYOUB places a strong emphasis on preserving natural eye shape and avoiding an overly tight or ‘surprised’ look.
Blepharoplasty is performed under local or general anesthesia, so patients do not feel pain during surgery. Mild swelling and bruising afterward are normal and typically resolve within 1-2 weeks.
Most patients return to work and normal activities within 7-10 days, once visible swelling and bruising have subsided.
