What to Expect from Your Eyelid Surgery
As with all facial cosmetic surgery, good health and realistic expectations are prerequisites. Blepharoplasty removes the excess fat, muscle, and skin from both upper and lower lids. The results can be a refreshed appearance, with a younger, firmer eye area. After a mutual decision is made by both you and Dr. Ferguson, the technique indicated for your individual surgery will be discussed. The risks and costs inherent in the procedure will be outlined.
In upper eyelid surgery, Dr. Ferguson first marks the individual lines and creases of the lids in order to keep the scars as invisible as possible along these natural folds. The incision is made, and excess fat, muscle, and loose skin are removed. Fine sutures are used to close the incisions, thereby minimizing the visibility of any scar. In lower eyelid surgery, eyelid puffiness caused primarily by excess fat may be corrected by a transconjunctival blepharoplasty. The incision in this case is made inside the lower eyelid, and excess fatty material is removed. Wrinkles are improved by application of a concurrent peel or with laser treatment.
Post Eyelid Surgery
Immediately after the surgery has been completed, ointment may be applied to any skin incisions. This is not done for transconjunctival blepharoplasty unless a concurrent peel has been performed. You will be given a prescription or sample of this ointment. Over-the-counter moisturizer drops are highly recommended. A certain degree of swelling and bruising is normal.
Cold compresses, as well as head elevation when lying down, will enhance healing and relieve discomfort. Pain is usually minimal, but all patients are given pain medicine, and, when indicated, medicated drops.
For a week and a half following blepharoplasty, you will need to clean the eye area (the eyes may feel sticky, dry, and itchy). The redness and bruising resolves fairly quickly. We can assist with camouflage after the stitches are removed three to five days after surgery. Sunglasses cover things perfectly. Most patients are able to resume their normal activities immediately after the procedure. Your only limitations are contact sports and contact lenses.
Special consideration must be made with the oriental eyelid due to anatomic variations. Dr. Ferguson is well experienced with preserving ethnicity, Westernizing, or reversing previous eyelid surgery.

You might consider blepharoplasty if droopy or sagging eyelids keep your eyes from opening completely or pull down your lower eyelids. Removing excess tissue from your upper eyelids can improve your vision. Upper and lower lid blepharoplasty can make your eyes appear younger and more alert. 👁
Blepharoplasty may be an option if you have:
•Baggy or droopy upper eyelids
•Excess skin of the upper eyelids that interferes with your peripheral vision
•Excess skin on the lower eyelids
•Bags under your eyes

An eyebrow transplant is a cosmetic procedure where hair grafts (plugs) are transferred to your brow area. This goal is that new hairs will grow from these grafts, producing a fuller look.
NeoGraft is the state-of-the-art in hair transplantation for both the scalp and eyebrows. Many women pluck their eyebrows to the point they cease to grow. These hairs can be replaced with the NeoGraft System.
Here’s how it works: the hairs must be surgically removed with the NeoGraft as single hair follicles from the back of the scalp. They must then be inserted into a previously designed brow at an extreme angle and also in the proper direction to achieve a normal looking brow. Typically from 250 to 350 grafts are needed for each brow. Remember that these are hairs from your scalp, so they will continue to grow and must be trimmed when too long.
The procedure is done under local anesthesia and takes from 3 to 4 hours to perform. After the procedure there may be some minor scabbing for a few days. The hairs will fall out at about the third week from “hair shock,” which is typical. They then regrow at about the third or forth month and then you’ll have eyebrows forever.
If you’re tired of Microblading or drawing in your brows, please DM or give us a call to schedule a virtual consultation!
