More and more people are seeking blepharoplasty to address issues such as a “tired look,” because this surgical technique, without a shadow of a doubt, offers the best cost-benefit ratio, since its effect is long-lasting!
The starting point of this journey is a consultation with a specialist surgeon; only in this way is it possible to determine the best alternatives to provide a more youthful and radiant look, enhancing the beauty of your natural features.
How can blepharoplasty fix a tired look?
Blepharoplasty may be recommended by the ocular plastic surgeon in cases where the complaint is a tired look. The technique consists of removing excess skin from the lower and upper eyelids, as well as fat bags from the eye area, bringing back a youthful appearance.
Laser blepharoplasty delivers even more satisfactory results, especially when performed in the operating rooms of leading hospitals, with a trained team and high-quality equipment.
It is important to emphasize that eyelid plastic surgery with laser incisions offers two important advantages over the traditional technique: it reduces postoperative swelling and bruising, and it also allows skin renewal, with increased collagen, reduced wrinkles, improved laxity and even slight skin lightening.
Can blepharoplasty be combined with other procedures?
Yes, absolutely! However, the precise recommendation on the best combination of surgeries to lift drooping eyelids depends on a consultation with a specialist surgeon.
During the assessment, Dr. Rogério Leal, a specialist in aesthetic and reconstructive eyelid surgery, identifies your needs, the possible causes and the best treatments. In addition, preoperative tests are ordered to ensure the safety of the surgeries and procedures. Combining two or more surgeries can offer more significant and satisfactory results.
A brow lift, for example, is one of the techniques most often combined with blepharoplasty, especially because a tired look is associated with drooping eyebrows in a large number of people.

What is recovery like after combined surgery?
The postoperative period of eye plastic surgery is painless for most patients, especially when medical instructions are followed properly.
The main measures are cold compresses, relative rest, an appropriate diet, taking the prescribed medication, returning to work after 1 week and returning to physical activity (the gym) only after 2 weeks!
