I was very nervous about my blepharoplasty surgery at first. It also took me forever to decide to go through with it. I found Dr. Denise Wong on Google and booked a consultation, thinking I would just give it a try. She is very professional, and the consultant was also very nice and helpful.

What Can Blepharoplasty Correct?

Blepharoplasty is a highly effective procedure designed to address a variety of cosmetic and functional concerns around the eyes. Some of the key issues it can correct include:
saggy upper eyelid
As we age, the skin around the eyes loses elasticity, leading to droopy, sagging upper eyelids. Blepharoplasty tightens and lifts the skin, providing a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
under eye puffiness
The buildup of fat and fluid beneath the eyes can cause unsightly puffiness. Eyelid surgery can remove or reposition this fat, creating a smoother, more rested look.
droopy upper eyelid

Blepharoplasty can correct lower eyelids that droop and expose too much of the white of the eyes, restoring a more balanced and natural appearance.

Loose skin and fine lines around the eyes can make the face look tired or aged. By removing excess skin, the procedure can smooth wrinkles and give the eye area a rejuvenated look.

In some cases, drooping upper eyelids can obstruct a person’s vision. Blepharoplasty not only enhances appearance but also improves vision by removing the excess skin that may be blocking sight.
This procedure helps clients regain confidence and feel revitalized, making it a popular choice for those seeking both aesthetic and functional improvements.

Types of Blepharoplasty We Offer

Understanding what to expect before and after blepharoplasty can help you prepare for the procedure and ensure a smooth recovery. Here’s a detailed look at the process:

Upper Eyelid Surgery

This procedure focuses on correcting sagging skin on the upper eyelids, which can not only make the eyes appear tired but may also impair vision. By removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding muscles, upper eyelid surgery enhances the eye’s appearance, providing a more youthful and alert look while potentially improving vision.

Lower Eyelid Surgery

Lower eyelid surgery is designed to eliminate puffy bags under the eyes, often caused by the natural shifting of fat and fluid over time. This procedure smooths the under-eye area, creating a firmer and more youthful contour. It is ideal for those who want to address dark circles and puffiness for a refreshed appearance.

Double Eyelid Surgery (Asian Blepharoplasty)

Popular among Los Angeles’s diverse population, double eyelid surgery creates a more defined eyelid crease while preserving the natural shape of the eye. This procedure is specifically tailored for individuals of Asian descent who seek to enhance their eyelid’s appearance while maintaining ethnic features. Our skilled surgeons carefully customize this procedure to achieve natural-looking results.

Whether you’re looking to correct functional issues or enhance your appearance, our team at Wave Plastic Surgery is dedicated to delivering exceptional results through these specialized blepharoplasty procedures.

The journey begins with a personalized consultation with one of our highly experienced surgeons. During this initial meeting, we take the time to understand your aesthetic goals, review your medical history, and assess the unique features of your eye area. Our surgeons will discuss the best approach for achieving natural-looking results tailored specifically to your facial structure.

At Wave Plastic Surgery, we are committed to delivering top-tier results in San Francisco eyelid surgery. Our team of skilled surgeons is renowned for their expertise, making us the trusted choice for patients seeking the best outcomes in blepharoplasty.

The Procedure

At Wave Plastic Surgery, our blepharoplasty procedure is performed with the utmost precision and attention to detail, ensuring both aesthetic and functional improvements.

Surgical Techniques

Depending on your specific needs and the type of blepharoplasty being performed, the surgery can be done under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia. During the procedure, small, carefully placed incisions are made along the natural creases of the eyelids, minimizing visible scarring. For upper eyelid surgery, incisions are made in the natural fold of the lid, while lower eyelid surgery typically involves an incision just below the lash line or inside the eyelid to access and remove fat deposits or excess skin. Every step of the process is handled with precision, ensuring a safe and effective outcome tailored to your facial structure.

Procedure Duration

Blepharoplasty is a relatively quick procedure, often taking 1-2 hours, depending on the complexity and whether upper, lower, or both eyelids are being treated. Our skilled surgeons at Wave Plastic Surgery are meticulous in their approach, ensuring that every detail is addressed to deliver flawless, natural-looking results.

Recovery & Results

Expected Downtime & Aftercare

Recovery from blepharoplasty generally requires a short period of downtime. Most clients can expect some bruising and swelling in the first few days, which typically subsides within 1-2 weeks. We provide clear aftercare instructions to promote healing, such as keeping the head elevated, using cold compresses, and avoiding strenuous activities. Stitches are usually removed within a week, and any residual swelling continues to diminish over the following weeks.

Final Results

While initial improvements are noticeable soon after surgery, final results become more apparent as swelling fully subsides, usually within a few months. Clients are often delighted to see their rejuvenated, youthful eye area, free from sagging skin, puffiness, and under-eye bags.

At Wave Plastic Surgery, we believe that ongoing care is just as important as the surgery itself. We provide follow-up appointments to monitor healing and ensure that you are fully satisfied with your results, offering support at every stage of your recovery journey.

Frequently Asked Questions about Blepharoplasty

A good candidate for blepharoplasty is someone who has sagging or drooping eyelids, puffiness, or under-eye bags and is in good overall health, typically seeking to enhance their eye area for a more youthful appearance.

The blepharoplasty procedure typically takes about 1 to 2 hours, depending on whether both the upper and lower eyelids are being treated and the complexity of the surgery.

The results of blepharoplasty can last for many years, typically 10 to 15 years or longer, depending on individual factors such as skin type, aging, and lifestyle. While the procedure offers long-lasting improvements, natural aging will continue to affect the eye area over time.
