For this patient, Dr. Madjidi removed excess fat and tissue from both the upper eyelid and lower eyelid. The bulges underneath the eyes made this patient look excessively tired. Our plastic surgeon was able to give her a totally rejuvenated look that removed the bulges and sagging and made her eyes pop. 

Youthful and Refreshed How Eyelid Surgery Can Rejuvenate Your Look

Reduce Sagging

As we age, the skin on our upper eyelids begins to droop. Drooping eyelids can cause you to look older and can even obstruct your field of vision. 

Eliminate Undereye Bags

Undereye bags can create a sad or tired appearance. By removing the excess fat, blepharoplasty can eliminate the bagging and restore your lively look.

Reduce Wrinkles

An eyelid lift can remove excess skin and tighten your eyelids to effectively reduce wrinkles. 

Improve Your Confidence

Blepharoplasty can address the issues around your eyes that can make you feel self-conscious. By eliminating wrinkles and excess skin, your eyelid surgery can leave you looking more youthful and feeling confident.

Have worked with her for going on 5 years and I love her work so much that I had breast augmentation. She is simply fabulous and has a great bedside manner.
She also does all my fillers, simply the best, if I could give more stars I would.

More Dramatic Results From Eyelid Surgery

Eyelid Surgery

In men, it is important not to feminize the look. In this patient, the upper eyelids are over the lashes and weigh heavily. His eyebrows are also low set and push on the upper eyelids. Doing upper eyelid surgery alone would not have been enough to allow a natural and effortless eye-opening, so he also had his brows lifted. Scars are barely visible at 5 months.

What To Expect During Your Eyelid Procedure

Eyelid surgery is done as an outpatient procedure and can also be done at the same time as a facelift, mid-facelift, cheek augmentation, or fat injection. Fine wrinkles will not be corrected by surgery alone and may need to be addressed by skin resurfacing after surgery, such as a chemical peel.

Dr. Madjidi personally performs the surgery and follows her patients during their recovery.

Consultation

Before your surgery, you will meet with Dr. Madjidi at our Houston, TX, office for your consultation. There, she will listen to your desired results and analyze your face. She will ensure surgery is the best option and that your concerns cannot be fixed with non-surgical options like BOTOX Cosmetic or fillers alone. 

General Anesthesia

General anesthesia is given for this procedure to keep you asleep, comfortable, and pain-free throughout the entire appointment.

Incisions

Depending on which eyelid you are having done, your incision will either be placed in the natural crease of your top eyelid, or the lash line along your lower eyelid.

Removal

Dr. Madjidi will then remove excess fat, muscle, and eyelid skin to reduce puffiness and create a more alert appearance.

Sutures

Once the excess skin and fat are removed, Dr. Madjidi will suture the incisions closed. When not combined with any other procedure, blepharoplasty usually only takes between one and two hours. 

Recovery

Since this is an outpatient surgery and you will be under general anesthesia, you will need someone to take you to and from your appointment. 

Blepharoplasty Recovery What To Expect

Follow Dr. Madjidi's instructions to ensure a safe and quick recovery process. Many patients require about a week of recovery before returning to work. 

Bruising and Swelling

Bruising and swelling of the eyelids and around the eyes is normal following surgery. This should subside within the first week. Makeup can be used to cover any residual bruising in the meantime.

Minor Irritation

Minor irritation, sensitivity, or dry eye are also normal during the recovery process. Prescription eye drops can usually help ease any irritation during healing.

Light Sensitivity

Temporary sensitivity to light or a slight change in vision can sometimes be experienced by blepharoplasty patients. These side effects can also be subsided with prescription eye drops and dark sunglasses.
