The ideal blepharoplasty candidate is a healthy individual seeking
improved eye appearance. This procedure offers multiple benefits:

weeks. Vision may be temporarily impaired during initial recovery. Ice
packs can help manage swelling and discomfort. Most blepharoplasty
results become visible within 2-3 weeks, though final outcomes may

	* Restores a more youthful, refreshed eye appearance
	* Improves overall facial aesthetics

outpatient facility under general anesthesia. Surgeons strategically
place incisions in natural eyelid creases to minimize visible
scarring, allowing precise removal and repositioning of excess tissue.

within two weeks, with final results becoming increasingly refined
over the following year.

POTENTIAL RISKS

eye dryness. Choosing an experienced plastic surgeon and following
post-operative instructions significantly minimizes these risks.
