BLEPHAROPLASTY (EYELID SURGERY)
Restore Volume and Rejuvenate Your Natural Beauty
At Intentional Wellness Center, Blepharoplasty is a personalized surgical procedure that improves the appearance of the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both by addressing excess skin, puffiness, and eyelid heaviness. Treatment is carefully planned around your anatomy, goals, and overall eye health to support natural-looking rejuvenation while maintaining your unique expression.
DETAILS
THE PROBLEM IT TREATS
Loose or sagging upper eyelid skin, hooded eyelids, eyelid heaviness, puffiness caused by excess fat, bags under the eyes, lower eyelid skin laxity, fine lines around the eyelids, or a tired appearance that does not reflect how you feel. In some cases, excess upper eyelid skin may also interfere with peripheral vision. These concerns may develop with aging, genetics, sun exposure, skin elasticity changes, or natural shifts in facial volume and support.
HOW IT WORKS
Blepharoplasty removes or repositions excess eyelid skin, muscle, and fat to improve eyelid contour and create a smoother, more refreshed appearance. Upper blepharoplasty typically focuses on reducing excess skin or heaviness along the upper eyelid, while lower blepharoplasty may address under-eye bags, puffiness, or loose lower eyelid skin. Incisions are carefully placed within natural eyelid creases or discreet areas whenever possible to support refined, natural-looking results.
THIS TREATMENT IS IDEAL FOR:
This treatment is ideal for individuals who:
• Are bothered by drooping, hooded, or heavy-looking upper eyelids
• Have under-eye bags, puffiness, or excess lower eyelid skin
• Want a brighter, more rested, and refreshed eye appearance
• Have realistic expectations about surgical improvement and recovery
• Are in good overall health and able to safely undergo a surgical procedure
NOT RECOMMENDED IF:
You have certain uncontrolled medical conditions, active eye infection or inflammation, severe dry eye, uncontrolled glaucoma, uncontrolled thyroid eye disease, bleeding disorders, or other concerns that may affect healing or surgical safety. A consultation is required to determine candidacy, review your medical history, and decide whether upper blepharoplasty, lower blepharoplasty, or a combined approach is appropriate for your goals.
IDEAL CANDIDATE
TREATMENT TIME
Approximately 1–2 hours, depending on whether the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both are treated and whether additional procedures are performed at the same time.
NUMBER OF TREATMENTS NEEDED
Blepharoplasty is typically performed as a single surgical procedure. Results are long-lasting, although the natural aging process will continue over time. Some patients may choose future maintenance options to support overall facial rejuvenation.
DOWNTIME AND RECOVERY
Downtime varies by patient and procedure type. Temporary swelling, bruising, tightness, dryness, irritation, or mild discomfort are common during the early healing period. Cold compresses, prescribed or recommended medications, and careful incision care may be part of your recovery plan. Many patients return to light daily activities within several days, though strenuous activity, eye makeup, and certain skincare products may need to be avoided until cleared by your provider.
EXPECTED RESULTS AND TIMELINE
Initial improvement may be visible as swelling and bruising begin to resolve, with the eyes gradually appearing smoother, more open, and more refreshed. Results continue to refine over several weeks as healing progresses, with final results typically becoming more apparent over the following months. Individual results vary based on anatomy, skin quality, healing response, surgical plan, and whether upper, lower, or combined eyelid surgery is performed.
