Understanding Blepharoplasty in Charleston County

It is not possible to completely stop the aging process, but blepharoplasty offers a solution to restore a more youthful appearance. This surgical procedure, also known as an eye lift, helps correct sagging and drooping eyelids associated with aging. Sweetgrass Plastic Surgery provides blepharoplasty services for patients in Charleston, Summerville, Nexton, Mt Pleasant, Daniel Island, and West Ashley.

What is Eyelid Surgery?

Eyelid surgery is primarily performed for patients unhappy with age-related changes to their eyelids. As we age, eyelid skin loses elasticity and can droop, potentially impairing vision and creating an unattractive appearance. Blepharoplasty eliminates excess skin, restoring a more refreshed look.

Benefits of Blepharoplasty

• Reduces signs of aging on the face
• Helps patients look more awake and healthier
• Provides natural-looking results
• Potential improvement in vision obstruction

Ideal Candidates for Blepharoplasty

Candidates for blepharoplasty include individuals experiencing:

• Drooping or sagging eyelid skin
• Vision impairment due to excess skin
• Chronic conditions like frequent styes or blepharospasms

Preparing for Blepharoplasty

Patients should expect some tenderness and soreness for a few weeks following the procedure. Light sensitivity is common, so patients should have sunglasses readily available during recovery.

Cost Considerations

The cost of eyelid surgery varies depending on the specific corrections required. During the initial consultation, physicians will develop a personalized treatment plan and discuss associated costs.
