For the upper eyelids
For upper blepharoplasty, the incision is made in a natural fold in the hollow of the eyelid. As a result, the scar is very discreet. With this incision, the surgeon removes any excess skin and fat pockets. This procedure is often performed under local anaesthesia and lasts on average between 30 minutes and one hour. This is an outpatient surgery.
For the lower eyelids
For a lower blepharoplasty, two techniques can be proposed:
The doctor makes an incision under the eyelashes to allow for treatment of the
skin but also muscular slackness and to remove any fat pockets. The procedure
lasts on average one hour under local or general anaesthesia. The duration of
hospitalization is one day or one day and one night.
Another technique can be used, if it is necessary to treat only the problem of
the bags under the eyes without significant skin treatment, the doctor decides
to go through the inside of the eyelid to hide the incision on the inner lining
of the eyelid. No scar will be visible.
Recovery: What to expect after a Blepharoplasty?
After blepharoplasty in Morocco, It is expected to notice the appearance of edema (swelling) and bruises (blue) which importance and duration are very variable from one patient to another. But, you don’t have to worry, there is no real pain. However, some discomfort with a feeling of tightening of the eyelids, slight eye irritation or some visual disturbance may occur as a result of the operation. Do not worry about these signs, they are usually quickly reversible. You are advised to rest and do not make any effort in the days following the procedure. Depending on each case, 6 to 20 days are necessary before allowing the return to normal social and professional activities.
Your scars may remain a little pink for the first few weeks, but you can put on some makeup on the seventh day after your blepharoplasty.
You will not be able to perform physical activities for the first 15 days after the operation.
Results: What results will I see after a Blepharoplasty?
A period of 3 to 6 months is required to assess the outcome of your blepharoplasty in Morocco. This is the time it takes for your tissues to regain their flexibility and for the scars to fade away. The blepharoplasty corrects the aged and tired aspect of your eyes and allows them to find a new youth. The results of a blepharoplasty are generally among the most durable of cosmetic surgery. The removal of “pockets” is virtually permanent and they usually never appear again. The skin, on the other hand, continues to age, and laxity can, in the long run reproduce the crease of the eyelids. However, it is rare for a new intervention to be considered for another 12 years.
