Secondary correction after upper eyelids blepharoplasty

Secondary upper eyelid plasty, known as blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure carried out on patients who have previously undergone eyelid plasty but need to correct the results for various reasons. It can be performed to improve aesthetics, correct asymmetry or remove residual excess skin and fatty tissue. The procedure requires particular precision and experience on the part of the surgeon due to the altered tissue anatomy after previous surgery.

Duration: 1.5-2 hours.

Preparation: Consultation, blood tests, avoidance of blood-thinning drugs.

Course: Anaesthesia, correction of skin, fat and scars, precise placement of sutures.

Results: Improvement in aesthetics and function visible after a few weeks; full effects after 2-3 months.

Recovery: Swelling and bruising subsides in 1-2 weeks; sutures removed after 7 days; return to activity after 3-4 weeks.
