Upper And Lower Eyelid Surgery Recovery Time

Upper And Lower Eyelid Surgery Recovery TimeEyelid surgery is a facial rejuvenation surgery that can help reduce excess skin and fat from around the eyes. When patients undergo this procedure, they can opt to either have just the top eyelids completed, the lower eyelids, or both. Your surgeon will discuss your expected recovery time with you during your consultation. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Matthias Solomon provides upper and lower eyelid surgery to patients in Dallas, Frisco, Sherman, Texas, and surrounding locations.

Your Recovery

After eyelid surgery, patients may experience pain, swelling and bruising, blurry vision, and sensitivity to light. It is recommended that you have someone drive you home and stay with you for at least the first night of your recovery to help assist you with your needs. Swelling, bruising, and scarring will occur for several weeks, but you are able to resume work when you are comfortable.

Speeding Up Your Recovery

You should take plenty of time off work and try to rest and sleep as much as you can to help you heal properly. Stocking up on healthy foods and preparing your bedside will help you have an easier recovery in the first week or two. You may need to use cold compressions, ointments, and pain medications to ease your discomfort. Follow your post-op instructions from your surgeon for the best results.
