Despite feeling young on the inside, many people complain of a tired appearance around their eyes. For many people, this includes bulging fat of the lower eyelid, along with excess skin. This can sometimes add years to your appearance, on a face that otherwise appears young.
Eyelid rejuvenation through cosmetic eyelid surgery is an outpatient procedure that can reduce the signs of aging. Here at Hillcrest Plastic Surgery, we have a skilled team, led by Dr. Kenrick Spence, that performs blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) in Orlando.
What to Expect at a Consultation
You'll be evaluated based on several important factors that help determine the next best steps. These include:
- An evaluation of your state of health.
- A detailed history of any vision problems.
- An evaluation of your pattern of aging, such as eyelid descent, excess skin and bulging fat.
- A discussion about the position of the scar and its effects on your upper eyelid.
The evaluation is an opportunity to make sure you feel comfortable with the procedure. It's also a chance for us to understand your eyes and health better.
Preparation for Eyelid Surgery
There are some important steps to prepare for eyelid rejuvenation surgery. While you'll be supported and informed throughout, it's good to know what to expect. This can include:
- Medical clearance: You'll typically be asked to stop taking specific medications and supplements. This can include stopping all blood-thinning agents at least one week prior to surgery, including aspirin, vitamin E and more.
- Avoiding smoking and alcohol: You must stop smoking at least eight weeks prior to surgery. Consuming alcohol is also not recommended before and after eyelid surgery.
- General lifestyle changes: You may be encouraged to eat a healthy, balanced diet and stay hygienic before your procedure, which helps to aid recovery.
- Post-procedure instructions: You'll need to arrange a comfortable place to recover. Ensure you have someone to take you home after the procedure.
These small steps can help you have a smooth recovery and look forward to your desired results.
Eyelid Rejuvenation Costs
Your consultation will include an open, friendly conversation about the eyelid rejuvenation costs and your payment options. We like to do this at the beginning of the process, so that you can have more peace of mind. Dr. Spence will discuss your payment options so you can choose the one that best suits your needs.
