Blepharoplasty Surgery Cape Town: What Patients Should Know

The Blepharoplasty surgery Cape Town offered helps patients to feel much younger, eliminating signs of tired eyes without producing unnatural results. Excess skin and, in some cases, small amounts of muscle or fat which gather under or over the eyes can effectively removed by this surgery technique. Your suitability can best be determined by discussing your needs during your initial consultation.

Here, your surgeon will examine your eyes and guide you toward whether your procedure can be completed with a lower blepharoplasty (for the skin under the eyes), an upper blepharoplasty, or a combination of the two treatments.

As everyone’s recovery times are different, typical side effects from the surgery range from general swelling and/or bruising in the immediate weeks after surgery, to tight, numb and sometimes slightly sore eyelids, all of which should subside according to aftercare advice from your surgeon. It's crucial to pick the right surgeons so that the best results can be gained and during the consultation the patient's requirements for recovery, medical history and overall aspirations should be discussed.
