How is the procedure performed?

Non-surgical blepharoplasty is performed in-office with a specialized laser. By stimulating collagen production, fine wrinkles and early laxity in the eyelid skin improve. Its mechanism relies on the selective increase of temperature, applied to a specific zone of the skin.

What happens after the procedure?

After the procedure, the patient may develop swelling and, in some cases, redness at the treated sites. There may also be continuous tearing. Post-procedure care includes a moisturizing ointment, which may cause temporary blurred vision. In general, this is among the most common side effects, as is temporary photosensitivity. Full recovery is estimated at about 2 weeks. During this period, patients should follow the doctor’s instructions and rest adequately. After 1 week, once healing has progressed, the patient should wear sunglasses outdoors to protect the skin from sun and wind. For the next 3 weeks, avoid strenuous physical activity that increases blood flow to the eyes, such as working out, lifting weights, bending over, or even crying.
