Case #31347

This 49-year-old female is shown before and two weeks after incisionless surgery: fat transfer to the lower eyelids and no-incision eyebag removal.

Case #31495

This 44-year-old patient is shown before and eight months after a rhinoplasty, lower-eyelid blepharoplasty, and fat transfer around the eyes and a small amount of microfat transfer to her lips. For her rhinoplasty, she had a dorsal hump reduction, nasal bone slimming, and tip refinement using lateral turn-in flaps, a caudal septal extension graft, and nasal sill reduction, among other techniques. Her lower-eyelid procedure was done without an incision (transconjunctival) and fat was also placed into the upper eyelid and brow as well. She did not want to have a dramatic difference for the lips but a subtle augmentation. Microfat involves purifying the fat to make the result smooth and the recovery fast.

Case #21660

Botox, Injectable Fillers, Eyelid Rejuvenation

This 45-year-old woman is shown before and 1 year after upper blepharoplasty, facial fillers, upper facial Botox, and full-face MesoBotox. As can be seen, one-session of MesoBotox has changed the facial skin quality, lower facial wrinkles, and facial shape that has lasted year and will most likely persist except for the effects of ongoing aging. Dr. Lam has truly perfected full-face Botox treatments to improve wrinkles that could otherwise not be easily treated and to provide total facial balance.

Case #21142

Eyelid Rejuvenation

This 62-year-old man is shown before and 6 months after having his lower eyebags removed. The technique that was performed was incisionless (transconjunctival) not just to avoid a scar but to make sure that his eyelid shape would be perfectly preserved. He also had fat grafting under his lower eyelids to improve the hollowness along with a fractionated carbon dioxide laser to tighten his skin.

How long does it take to look normal after upper eyelid surgery?

Your eyelid may be swollen and bruised for 1 to 3 weeks after surgery. The appearance of your eye may continue to get better for 1 to 3 months. Most people feel ready to go out in public and back to work in about 10 to 14 days.

How long does it take to fully recover from upper and lower blepharoplasty?

Patients who have undergone upper lid surgery will usually be able to go back after 7-10 days. The recovery time is a little longer for lower lid surgery, with time off work increasing to 10-14 days.

What will I look like after eyelid surgery?

Your eyelids will probably look puffy after surgery. The incisions will probably look red, too. The swelling and bruising involved with blepharoplasty recovery tend to resemble a black eye. That is all normal.

What can I expect after upper and lower eyelid surgery?

After the procedure, it is normal to have some eye redness and slight bruising or swelling. Patients can expect to experience these post-op symptoms for the first couple of weeks, and over-the-counter pain medication can help ease any side effects.
