 

EYELID SURGERY (BLEPHAROPLASTY) IN DOTHAN, ALABAMA

UNDERSTANDING BLEPHAROPLASTY

Blepharoplasty is a specialized surgical procedure designed to
rejuvenate the appearance of the eyelids. Age, sun damage, smoking,
and other factors can cause eyelid skin to deteriorate, leading to
drooping or bulging that makes patients appear older or more fatigued.

PROCEDURE BENEFITS

 	* Removes excess skin and fat from upper and lower eyelids
	* Tightens supporting muscles and tissues
	* Restores a more youthful, refreshed eye appearance
	* Improves overall facial aesthetics

CANDIDACY FOR EYELID SURGERY

Ideal candidates for blepharoplasty are individuals in good overall
health with realistic expectations. Patients experiencing loose,
sagging skin or puffy bags around the eyes typically benefit most from
this procedure.

PROCEDURE DETAILS

Southern Institute of Plastic Surgery performs blepharoplasty in an
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.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Most patients return to work within two days, with complete healing
occurring over several weeks. Swelling and bruising typically subside
within two weeks, with final results becoming increasingly refined
over the following year.

POTENTIAL RISKS

While rare, potential risks include bleeding, infection, and temporary
eye dryness. Choosing an experienced plastic surgeon and following
post-operative instructions significantly minimizes these risks.

COMPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES

Blepharoplasty can be combined with procedures like browlifts to
further enhance facial rejuvenation and address comprehensive
aesthetic concerns.
