Blepharoplasty eyelid surgery in Melbourne is available at Define Dermatology & Aesthetics with Specialist Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon Mr Ian Loh. Mr Loh provides thorough, personalised consultations to discuss whether blepharoplasty is appropriate for your individual circumstances, goals, and anatomy.
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that addresses excess skin, fat, or muscle around the upper or lower eyelids. It may be considered for functional reasons, such as impaired vision caused by drooping upper eyelids, or for aesthetic concerns relating to the appearance of the eye area.
Like all surgical procedures, blepharoplasty carries risks. Mr Loh will explain these in full during your consultation so you can make a fully informed decision.
Suitability for blepharoplasty is assessed on an individual basis. During your consultation Mr Loh will assess the eyelid area, review your medical history, and discuss your concerns and goals to determine whether surgery is appropriate for you.
Certain medical conditions affecting the eyes may influence suitability for surgery. Mr Loh will provide honest, individualised advice based on your circumstances.
Blepharoplasty may be performed on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both, depending on your individual circumstances. The procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia. Mr Loh will explain the recommended approach and what it involves during your consultation.
Recovery from blepharoplasty varies between individuals and typically involves swelling and bruising around the eye area in the initial weeks. Mr Loh and his team will provide detailed post-operative instructions and support throughout your recovery. Specific recovery timelines and restrictions will be discussed during your consultation.
