What is eyelid surgery?

Eyelid surgery in Tunisia is one of the most common cosmetic surgery procedures. It involves removing drooping skin from the upper eyelids and excess fat from the upper and lower eyelids. The benefits are as follows

• Reduces bags or puffiness under the eyes
• Brightens a “tired” appearance.
• Reduces dark circles under the eyes
• Lifts excess skin that can impair vision

Surgery does not completely eliminate dark circles, but complementary techniques can achieve even better results. And in some cases, people think their eyelids are drooping when in fact their forehead is drooping, which can make them more suitable for a brow lift.

Your surgeon will tell you if eyelid surgery is right for you, but bear in mind that ideal candidates generally don’t smoke or suffer from any serious eye conditions.

What can I expect before, during and after eyelid surgery?

Before the procedure, your care team will give you specific instructions on how to prepare for your eyelid surgery, including what food, drink and medication to avoid. Your care team will also give you personalised instructions to speed up your recovery.

All incisions made by your qualified surgeon will be well concealed within the natural structures of your eyelid area. Before the procedure, you will discuss your aesthetic goals in detail with your surgeon. Based on what you have shared, your surgeon will choose the best approach for eyelid surgery.

Although eyelid surgery is an outpatient procedure, it does require an anaesthetic, which means you will need to make arrangements to return home. Your care team will give you personalised instructions on how to care for your surgical site and advise you on any complications to watch out for.

When you return home, you will need to sleep in an elevated position for a few days after the operation, and most swelling and bruising should disappear within two to three weeks. At this point, you’ll begin to see your appearance refreshed and brighter.

The cost of eyelid surgery varies depending on your specific treatment goals and other services you may also undergo. Your surgeon will discuss the cost of eyelid surgery with you during your consultation.

Risks of eyelid surgery

Cosmetic eye surgery is generally safe, but as with any surgical procedure, there are risks of infection, bleeding or scarring. To avoid these, follow your healthcare team’s pre- and post-operative instructions and keep an open dialogue about your concerns throughout the recovery process.

Potential complications specific to eyelid surgery are rare and minor, but include:

• Blurred vision for several days
• Slight imbalance
• Ectropion (a more serious but treatable problem that occurs when the lower eyelid is pulled outwards)
