Upper and lower blepharoplasty is a plastic surgical procedure indicated for the correction of combined upper and lower eyelid aging changes, including excess skin, fat deposits, and tissue laxity.

The procedure involves:

• Excision or repositioning of excess skin and adipose tissue.

• Refinement of periorbital structures to restore contour.

This approach allows for:

• Improvement in eyelid contour and periorbital symmetry.

• Reduction of tired or heavy appearance.

Treatment planning is individualized to ensure:

• Procedural safety and precision.

• Natural-looking and long-lasting results.

Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty – Postoperative Recovery and Travel Recommendations

Following combined blepharoplasty, patients may experience:

• Postoperative edema and ecchymosis most noticeable during the initial 1–2 weeks.

• Temporary effects on appearance and comfort.

Clinical course:

• Gradual improvement over time.

• Return to normal daily activities typically within 10–14 days.

Postoperative recommendations include:

• Remaining in the country for at least 5–7 days following surgery.

• Avoidance of air travel and short-distance travel (up to 3 hours) during this period.

For extended travel:

• Journeys exceeding 4–6 hours should be postponed for at least 10–14 days.

• This recommendation is intended to support proper healing and reduce the risk of postoperative complications.
