Brighter Eyes: The Eyelid Lift

Rejuvenate Your Gaze With An Eyelid Lift

The eyes are the windows to the soul, or so they say – and our eyelids often reveal the first signs of aging. Remove the tired look of sagging eyelids and radiate confidence with every gaze with an eyelid lift from Dr. Sarmela Sunder.

No More Tired Eyes with Sunder Plastic Surgery

At Sunder Plastic Surgery we believe looking good and feeling good are wholly intertwined. As the eyes are a central focus in our personal interactions, expressing our emotions and character, Dr. Sunder introduces the eyelid lift procedure as a transformative journey toward brighter, fresher eyes. Our commitment to personalized cosmetic solutions ensures that your eyelid lift experience aligns with your unique goals, balancing your outer appearance with your inner confidence.

What is an Eyelid Lift?

An eyelid lift, also known as blepharoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure designed to rejuvenate the appearance of the eyes. This versatile procedure can address various concerns related to the upper and lower eyelids, such as sagging skin, excess fat, and puffiness. By precisely removing or repositioning tissue, an eyelid lift can create a refreshed and more youthful look, helping to restore the natural contours of the eyes. Dr. Sunder's eyelid lift procedure offers a tailored solution to rejuvenate your eyes, restoring their youthful vibrancy.

The Benefits of an Eyelid Lift

Over time, the delicate skin around the eyes can succumb to gravity and aging, leading to sagging, bagginess, or hollowness. An eyelid lift offers a range of remarkable benefits that extend not only to your physical appearance but also to how you feel about yourself. Here are some advantages that await you with an eyelid lift at Sunder Plastic Surgery:

Restores a more youthful and refreshed appearance to the eyes.
Reduces sagging skin and eliminates excess fat in the upper and lower eyelids.
Minimizes the appearance of under-eye bags and puffiness.
Enhances the natural contours of the eyes for a harmonious look.
Creates a brighter and more alert appearance.
Improves vision by removing excess skin that may obstruct the field of view.
Provides long-lasting results that can help you look and feel rejuvenated.

Is an Eyelid Lift Right for You?

Are you tired of seeing tired eyes staring back at you in the mirror? If you've noticed the gradual changes that time can bring, such as drooping eyelids, puffy under-eye bags, or excess skin obscuring the natural contours of your eyes, an eyelid lift might be the transformative solution you've been longing for.

The ideal candidate for this procedure is someone who wants their eyes to reflect their inner vitality – someone who seeks to align their outer appearance with their youthful spirit.

If your eyes no longer convey the youthful energy you feel inside, or if you find yourself constantly looking fatigued due to sagging skin and puffiness, an eyelid lift could be the answer. You might be feeling frustrated or even self-conscious about the way your eyes have changed over time. You may have tried various creams and treatments to alleviate the issues, only to find that they offer limited results. If you're ready to regain the lifted, refreshed look you once had, an eyelid lift can provide the rejuvenation you desire, allowing your true radiance to shine through.

The Eyelid Lift Process What to Expect

During your journey to revitalized and more youthful-looking eyes, Sunder Plastic Surgery wants to ensure you're well-informed and supported every step of the way. This is what you can expect on your eyelid lift journey:

Initial Consultation

Your transformation begins with a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Sarmela Sunder. She will attentively listen to your concerns, assess your unique facial anatomy, and discuss your aesthetic goals.

Customized Treatment Plan

Based on your consultation, Dr. Sunder will create a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific eyelid concerns. Whether it's addressing upper eyelid hooding, lower eyelid bags, or a combination of both, the plan will be tailored to achieve the most natural and harmonious results.

Procedure Preparation

On the day of your procedure, Dr. Sunder and her team will ensure you're comfortable and well-prepared for the surgery. Local anesthesia or sedation will be administered to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.

Incision Placement

The incisions for eyelid lift surgery are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring. For upper eyelid surgery, the incisions are typically made within the natural crease of the eyelid, allowing excess skin to be removed and the eyelid to be tightened. Lower eyelid incisions are often made just below the lash line or inside the lower lid.

Precision Surgery

Dr. Sunder employs meticulous surgical techniques to remove excess skin, fat, and tissue as needed. For upper eyelid surgery, underlying muscles may also be tightened to restore a more youthful contour. For lower eyelids, any excess fat causing puffiness can be expertly repositioned or removed.

Closure and Recovery

Once the necessary adjustments are made, the incisions are carefully closed with sutures. You'll be given detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery. Dr. Sunder and her team will closely monitor your progress and offer any support you need during your healing journey.

Results Unveiled

As the healing process unfolds, you'll gradually notice the revitalizing effects of your eyelid lift. Swelling and bruising will subside, revealing more youthful and refreshed eyes. Dr. Sunder's precise techniques aim to achieve a harmonious and natural outcome that enhances your overall facial appearance.

Eyelid Lift Recovery

Your recovery after eyelid lift surgery is a vital phase that contributes to achieving optimal results. Dr. Sarmela Sunder and the team at Sunder Plastic Surgery are committed to ensuring your comfort and successful healing. Here's a comprehensive overview of what you can anticipate during your recovery period:

Post-Procedure Care

Following your eyelid lift (blepharoplasty) surgery, it's crucial to adhere to our detailed post-care instructions. Applying lubricating drops/ointment and using cold compresses can aid healing and reduce potential side effects.

Immediate Recovery

In the immediate aftermath of the procedure, patients might experience swelling and bruising around the treated area. These normal effects typically diminish within the first two weeks, revealing your rejuvenated appearance underneath.

Return to Activities

While individual experiences may vary, most patients can usually return to work within a few days to a week after the surgery. However, it's recommended to avoid vigorous exercise and strenuous activities for at least two weeks to allow proper healing.

Suture Removal

Non-absorbable sutures, if used, are generally removed around 3 to 4 days post-surgery. This appointment will be scheduled by Dr. Sunder to monitor your healing progress.

Eye Makeup and Contact Lenses

For approximately two weeks after the surgery, it's advised to abstain from wearing eye makeup and contact lenses. This helps prevent any potential irritations and allows your incisions to heal properly.

Sun Protection

Protecting your eyes from sun exposure is essential during the healing process. Wearing dark sunglasses outdoors and applying SPF to your incision lines can prevent hyperpigmentation and ensure a smooth recovery.

Long-Term Healing

While you'll notice immediate improvements, your final results will continue to refine over the coming weeks as any remaining swelling subsides and your incisions heal. Dr. Sunder will provide guidance on skincare and sun protection to ensure the longevity of your results.

Dr. Sunder and her team are available to address any questions or concerns you may have during your recovery journey. By following the recommended aftercare instructions and attending follow-up appointments, you'll play an active role in achieving the best possible outcome for your eyelid lift procedure.
