What is the recovery time for cosmetic eye surgery?

Recovery time varies depending on the specific procedure and individual factors. Generally, patients can expect initial swelling and bruising to subside within 1-2 weeks for surgeries like blepharoplasty and ptosis correction. Full recovery, where the results are visible, may take a few months. Non-surgical treatments typically have shorter recovery periods, often allowing you to resume normal activities within a few days.

Are the results of cosmetic eye surgery permanent?

While cosmetic eye surgery can provide long-lasting results, it does not stop the natural aging process. Procedures like blepharoplasty and ptosis correction can significantly improve appearance for many years, but factors such as skin elasticity, lifestyle, and genetics will continue to influence your appearance over time. Regular maintenance treatments and good skincare can help prolong the results.

What are the potential risks and side effects of cosmetic eye surgery?

As with any surgical procedure, cosmetic eye surgery carries potential risks and side effects. These may include infection, scarring, dry eyes, difficulty closing the eyes, and changes in vision. Non-surgical treatments may have side effects like bruising, swelling, and temporary discomfort. It is crucial to discuss all potential risks with your surgeon and follow their pre- and post-operative care instructions to minimise complications and ensure the best possible outcome.
