Top Blepharoplasty Eyelid Surgery Specialist New Jersey
Blepharoplasty Specialist
Blepharoplasty, or “eyelid lift” is designed to treat the upper and / or lower eyelid complex. Most commonly done for drooping and puffy eyelids, blepharoplasty can dramatically enhance the appearance of your eyelids and face within minimal downtime.
Blepharoplasty Consultation
During your blepharoplasty consultation with Dr. Undavia, you will discuss both the surgical and non-surgical options for rejuvenation of your eyelid complex. It is important to let Dr. Undavia know if you have had any medical problems with your eyes (glaucoma, cataracts, dry eyes, chronic tearing, etc.). If appropriate, computer imaging will be used to help you understand what could be achieved with this procedure.
Blepharoplasty Surgery
The blepharoplasty procedure can be done with local anesthesia and either “twilight” sedation or general anesthesia, and is done on an outpatient basis. When it is combined with other procedures, it is typically done under general anesthesia.
Upper Eyelid Surgery
In upper eyelid surgery, a thin incision is made within the skin crease of the eyelid. A small portion of the incision is also hidden with the crow’s feet. The excessive skin is trimmed, and a small portion of fat that has come through the orbital septum is removed.
Lower Eyelid Surgery
In lower eyelid surgery, the incision can be completely within the inside of the eyelid, or just underneath the eyelash line, hidden also within a skin crease. Dr. Undavia will discuss with you the right approach for your eyelids, given your anatomy, amount of fat that has come through your septum, as well as the amount of excessive skin you have. If your lower eyelid demonstrates a significant tear trough, Dr. Undavia might suggest a fat repositioning procedure that can also help to rejuvenate the eyelid complex and add volume to areas that need it. In all instances, the sutures are removed within 5-7 days.
Blepharoplasty Procedure Recovery
There is minimal pain and swelling associated with blepharoplasty. Antibiotics and eye drops are prescribed postoperatively. There is only minor bruising, and makeup can be typically worn by 5 days. You might experience some itching and dryness for a few weeks, but this will come down quickly. You can expect to be back to work within a few days, and be exercising fully within 3-4 weeks.
Plastic Surgery Alternatives
There are non-surgical and surgical alternatives to eyelid surgery, and include both injectables (Botox Cosmetic®, Dysport®, Juvederm®, and Restylane®), and browlift surgery. Dr. Undavia will discuss these options with you to see which is most appropriate for your facial features.
Eyelid Surgery FAQ’S
Blepharoplasty, also known as an eyelid lift, typically sets the clock back ten years. After the procedure is complete and the area has had time to heal, it is important for patients to take steps towards preserving their results. This can include incorporating sun protection into their routine, avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, and focusing on a healthy diet.
The best age to get blepharoplasty typically ranges from 30-80 years old, although it can be performed at any age for the right reasons. Blepharoplasty can help remove sagging skin around the eyes and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, making patients look more youthful. It is important for patients to consult with their doctor prior to getting this procedure to ensure that they are a suitable candidate for the procedure.
The pros of blepharoplasty include: Improved appearance of the eyelids and the surrounding areas and reduced wrinkles and sagging skin around the eyes. The cons of blepharoplasty include: Swelling, bruising scarring and risks associated with surgery
Reviews
In early May I had Eyelid Surgery and skin removal from my lower lids. (I was tired of looking so tired!) Dr. Undavia was wonderful. Very knowledgeable, took the time to explain every aspect of the surgery as well as what to expect after. I has so little pain it was truly amazing – and I look and feel terrific. The staff at the ENT Clinic is also very supportive. I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone and everyone!!
