Blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty

If you’ve noticed a constantly tired appearance or puffiness around your eyes, it could be a sign of ageing. Despite getting enough sleep, you may still struggle to regain that youthful, refreshed look you once had. Fortunately, there’s a solution.

Introducing blepharoplasty, a minimally invasive eyelid surgery in Dubai offered by Dr. Levente Deak. This surgical technique targets signs of ageing around the eyes, such as uneven fat distribution and drooping skin, giving you a more youthful and vibrant appearance.

With blepharoplasty Dubai, you can look forward to a younger, brighter appearance and an overall boost in confidence. Say goodbye to tired-looking eyes and hello to a rejuvenated, refreshed you.

What is Eyelid Surgery - Blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty or eye lift Dubai, is a procedure to refresh your look by rearranging the skin and fat around your eyes.

  • Upper blepharoplasty is a common procedure where excess skin is carefully removed, and fat is repositioned to improve the upper eyelids’ appearance. A small stitch is then used to bring the skin together, creating a new eyelid crease.
  • Lower eyelid surgery can be performed through different approaches. One option is making skin incisions directly below the lash line. Alternatively, a transconjunctival approach involves an incision inside the eyelid, which is not visible from the outside. This approach is particularly suitable for patients needing fat removal. Additionally, the transconjunctival approach can be combined with laser resurfacing of the eyelid skin to address wrinkles or correct sagging.
  • Asian eyelid surgery is done to create or enhance an upper eyelid crease. Also known as double eyelid surgery, this type of surgery involves using threads and is commonly performed on Asian people to “westernise” the appearance of the eyelid.

Before Blepharoplasty Surgery Dubai

Before your eyelid surgery in Dubai, Dr Levente recommends some important steps to ensure the best possible outcome:

By following these recommendations, you can help prepare your body for blepharoplasty surgery and promote a smoother recovery afterwards.

How is Blepharoplasty Performed?

Under local anaesthesia with mild sedation, you can typically return home four hours after the procedure. If you prefer deeper sedation, a laryngeal mask may be used after the initial marking is done. 

Additionally, this surgical procedure can be combined with other facial plastic procedures for comprehensive enhancement.

Post-Operative Care Instructions

Most individuals find that they can resume their normal activities within about three days following the procedure and typically return to work after seven days.

To help speed up your recovery, it’s beneficial to cover your responsibilities ahead of time so that you can focus on resting. Stitch removal will be done four days after the surgery. 

Be sure to follow all self-care instructions for the best outcome.

Basic eyelid care

  • Cold compresses to reduce swelling.
  • Eye drops to prevent dry eyes.
  • Ointment to keep them lubricated.

Be patient

  • After the eyelid surgery in Dubai, expect some temporary changes in your appearance. Your eyelids may be swollen, your incisions may appear reddish, and there may be swelling and bruising around your eyes, possibly resembling a black eye.
  • This can be a challenging time for many patients, as they eagerly anticipate seeing the results. However, it’s essential to be patient. The swelling typically subsides within about two weeks; shortly after that, you’ll notice the changes. Over time, the difference will become more and more visible.

Sun protection is very important

To protect your eyes after surgery from sunlight and wind:

  • Wear sunglasses with wide frames to shield your eyes from sunlight and wind.
  • Consider wearing a hat for additional protection.
  • Follow post-surgery instructions for applying sunscreen to the treated area.

Don’t strain your eyes

Don’t spend time on your laptop, reading books, or catching up on an entire season of your favourite TV shows for at least a week following eyelid surgery. Try audiobooks or podcasts instead.

Get plenty of rest

  • Getting enough rest applies to your body as well as your eyes.
  • Having adequate sleep is essential to accelerate your recovery.
  • Since healing requires significant energy, you may feel more exhausted than usual. Plan to take naps when you feel tired.

Don’t do any strenuous activities

  • During the first two to four weeks post-eyelid surgery, it’s crucial to avoid activities that can increase blood flow to your eyes. 
  • Avoid vigorous activities like jogging, aerobics, sports, or any intense exercise.
  • Be mindful of everyday activities that exert pressure in your head and increase blood flow to your eyes, like bending, lifting heavy items, and lying flat on your back.

Relax and slow down

  • To alleviate stress during your recovery, take a break from work and focus on relaxing your eyes and body.

Addressing Common Questions

Blepharoplasty is not a painful cosmetic procedure. You may have some slight discomfort on the day of surgery, but it should subside soon.

Blepharoplasty Dubai won’t stop your eyes from ageing. But the results typically last a long time. Upper blepharoplasty can last from five to seven years to an entire lifetime, while lower blepharoplasty rarely needs to be done more than once.

Like any surgical procedure, eyelid surgery in Dubai has some risks, including bleeding, infection, dry eyes, abnormal discolouration of your eyelids and scarring.
