Eyelid Surgery Before & After Case 366

This 64-year-old woman came to the office with concerns about her facial appearance. She described frustration with the look of her eyelids, especially the periorbita, and reported receiving comments that she often looked angry or tired. She also asked about options for the downturning at the corners of her mouth. After a thorough consultation and discussion of her goals, we determined that eyelid surgery, specifically bilateral upper and lower lid blepharoplasty, would address her primary concerns.

Her medical history was notable for good overall health and stable weight. She has not experienced issues with dry eyes, which is an important consideration before eyelid procedures. The surgical plan focused on removing excess skin and fat from both the upper and lower eyelids. This approach can help restore a more alert appearance and address the heaviness that sometimes causes a fatigued look.

Recovery proceeded as expected, with visible bruising and swelling resolving within the usual timeframe. At her follow-up visits, she noted that friends and family commented on how well-rested she appeared. The changes to her eyelids resulted in a more relaxed and approachable facial expression, and she was pleased with the outcome.
