The eyelids may seem like a very small part of the body, yet they can significantly impact how we look and feel about ourselves. Droopy eyelids or loose, sagging skin can cause the impression that you are perpetually fatigued and prematurely aged.
At Schoemann Plastic Surgery, we are pleased to provide natural-looking eyelid surgery to patients near Oceanside, CA. Through this eyelid surgery procedure, Dr. Schoemann can remove excess skin or puffiness in the eyes through eyelid surgery, allowing you to look and feel revitalized.
Eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, is a plastic surgery that removes excess skin and fat deposits around the eyes.
This eliminates the drooping, baggy, and puffy appearance of the eyes, allowing you to regain a youthful, alert, and energized appearance. Dr. Schoemann can perform eyelid surgery on the upper eyelid, the lower eyelid, or both eyelids simultaneously, depending on your aesthetic needs.
The benefits of eyelid surgery depend on the procedure you get and your overall aesthetic goals.
For instance, eyelid surgery performed on the upper eyelids can eliminate drooping skin above the eyes, which can help you look younger while correcting any impact that drooping skin has on your peripheral vision.
Meanwhile, lower eyelid surgery eliminates puffiness and sagging under the eyes, helping you look more refreshed.
At Schoemann Plastic Surgery, we believe every patient is unique and customize our procedures accordingly. With that said, most patients who come in for eyelid surgery can expect the following process:
First and foremost, you will have a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Schoemann. He will assess your medical history to ensure you qualify for a safe, successful procedure, then examine your eyelids to verify that eyelid surgery is the best way to achieve your aesthetic goals.
On the day of surgery, Dr. Schoemann will administer sedation to keep you comfortable and safe. Usually, eyelid surgery takes about two hours to complete. Be sure you arrange to have someone drive you to and from the surgery.
During your recovery, get plenty of rest. You can use ice packs to help minimize swelling and bruising during your recovery process. Most patients need a few days to rest before returning to work or participating in strenuous activities, so plan accordingly.
If you live in or near Oceanside, CA and want to know whether you are a good candidate for eyelid surgery, we recommend scheduling a consultation with the double board-certified surgeon, Dr. Schoemann.
In general, though, the best candidates for eyelid surgery are those whose excess skin near the eyes has impacted their beauty, vision, or self-confidence.
If you are looking for changes to your facial appearance beyond the eyelids, you may be better served by a more extensive procedure, like a facelift or brow lift. These procedures may be combined with eyelid surgery to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.
Eyelid surgery can revitalize your physical appearance, providing long-lasting and natural-looking results. Discover more by contacting Schoemann Plastic Surgery near Oceanside, CA at (760) 932-0238.
