At Contemporary Plastic Surgery of Red Bank, New Jersey, the vision of enhancing your natural beauty becomes a reality under the skilled hands of Dr. Robert Herbstman. If you’re yearning to bid farewell to bothersome under-eye bags and revitalize your appearance, look no further. Eyelid surgery could hold the key to unlocking your desired transformation. Here’s everything you need to know.

Understanding Eye Lid Surgery: Eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure aimed at improving the appearance of the eyelids. It can address excess fat, skin, and muscle tissue in the upper and lower eyelids, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed look.

1. Types of Eye Lid Surgery: There are two main types of eyelid surgery:
   • Upper Blepharoplasty: Targets sagging skin and puffiness in the upper eyelids
   • Lower Blepharoplasty: Focuses on reducing under-eye bags and wrinkles in the lower eyelids

Dr. Herbstman will assess your specific concerns and recommend the appropriate procedure or combination of procedures to achieve your desired results.

2. Ideal Candidates for Eye Lid Surgery: Good candidates for eyelid surgery are those bothered by sagging skin, puffiness, or wrinkles around the eyes. They should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations about the procedure’s outcome.
3. The Eye Lid Surgery Process: Eyelid surgery is typically performed as an outpatient procedure under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia. During the surgery, incisions are made in the natural creases of the eyelids to minimize visible scarring. Excess fat, skin, are then removed or repositioned to achieve a smoother, more youthful contour.
4. Recovery and Results: After eyelid surgery, patients can expect some bruising, swelling, and discomfort, which can be managed with medication and cold compresses. Most individuals can return to work and normal activities within 7 to 10 days, although full recovery may take several weeks. As swelling subsides, the final results of the surgery will become more apparent, revealing a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.
5. Maintaining Results: To optimize the results of eyelid surgery, it’s essential to follow post-operative instructions provided by Dr. Herbstman. This may include avoiding strenuous activities, wearing sun protection, and using recommended skincare products to keep the delicate skin around the eyes healthy and hydrated.
6. Risks and Considerations: While eyelid surgery is generally safe, like any surgical procedure, it carries some risks and potential complications, including infection, bleeding, and adverse reactions to anesthesia. Dr. Herbstman will discuss these risks with you during your consultation and address any concerns you may have.
