Is This The Right Fit For You

Am I a good candidate for a blepharoplasty?

Anyone can be a candidate for blepharoplasty as long as they do not smoke and in good health. Most patients tend to be above the age of 35 since this is when sagging or drooping eyelids begins to be a problem.

Blepharoplasty Procedure

What happens during the surgery?

Blepharoplasty is an outpatient procedure that typically takes up to two hours under IV sedation. Dr. Feledy or Dr. Maiorino begins by making an incision along the natural fold of the eyelid to ensure that the scars will be as invisible as possible. He removes excess skin, muscle and fat before closing the incisions.

Recovery Time

What should I expect after my Blepharoplasty?

Following a blepharoplasty Northern VA patients will receive a lubricating ointment to protect their eyes from damage and, especially, dryness. The initial redness and numbness usually passes after several days. Swelling and bruising can be experienced for up to two weeks after surgery. Dr. Feledy or Dr. Maiorino can prescribe medication to deal with any discomfort.

Blepharoplasty Results

When will I see the results?

It takes between 1-2 months to fully recover from an eyelid surgery when your new look should be evident. Your scar should be nearly invisible thanks to the targeted nature of the incisions. Your eyelids should appear smoother and firmer.
