Rejuvenate your eyes with Blepharoplasty at St Helena Aesthetics.
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that targets the eyelids to correct issues such as drooping skin, excess fat, and puffiness. There are two main types: upper blepharoplasty, which focuses on removing excess skin and fat from the upper eyelids, and lower blepharoplasty, which addresses puffiness or under-eye bags caused by fat herniation. This procedure can significantly enhance the appearance of the eyes, offering a more youthful and refreshed look. In some cases, it can also improve vision if drooping eyelids obstruct the field of view. Recovery typically involves some swelling and bruising, with full results visible after a few weeks.

Refresh your look with Blepharoplasty at St Helena Aesthetics.
Drooping or sagging eyelids can occur as part of the natural aging process or due to factors like genetics or sun exposure. This condition often leads to a tired or aged appearance and, in more severe cases, can obstruct vision. Puffiness and under-eye bags may also develop, causing discomfort and impacting the overall aesthetics of the face. Whether due to aging or other factors, blepharoplasty is an effective solution to address these concerns and restore a more youthful and open-eyed look.
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to address aesthetic and functional issues with the eyelids. It is used to remove excess skin, fat, or tissue that may cause sagging or puffiness. This procedure can be done on the upper or lower eyelids and is often performed to improve the overall appearance of the eyes. The surgery can also improve vision if drooping eyelids are obstructing sight.
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during and after the procedure. Local anesthesia is typically used to numb the eyelid area, ensuring a pain-free surgical experience. After surgery, some swelling and bruising may occur, but these effects generally subside within a week. Pain can usually be managed with over-the-counter medication or prescribed pain relievers.
Recovery from blepharoplasty is typically quick, with most patients returning to normal activities within 7-10 days. Swelling and bruising may persist for a few weeks, but these effects gradually improve over time. It’s important to follow post-surgery care instructions, including avoiding strenuous activity and protecting the eyes from sun exposure, to ensure optimal results.
Good candidates for blepharoplasty are individuals who have noticeable sagging or puffiness around the eyes, which can be due to aging or genetics. Ideal candidates are generally in good health and do not have severe medical conditions that could affect healing. A consultation with a qualified surgeon at St Helena Aesthetics can help determine if blepharoplasty is the right option for you.
