You may be a good candidate for blepharoplasty in Lebanon if you:

Personalized Surgical Planning
Every blepharoplasty procedure is tailored to the individual patient.
Factors considered during surgical planning include:
- Upper eyelid skin excess.
- Lower eyelid bags or puffiness.
- Eyelid symmetry.
- Eyebrow position.
- Skin quality and elasticity.
- Eye shape and facial expression.

Most patients can expect:
- Bruising and swelling during the first week.

- Temporary sensitivity or dryness.
- Return to light daily activities within a few days.
- Return to work within 7–10 days.
- Gradual improvement in swelling over several weeks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will eyelid surgery remove wrinkles?
No. Eyelid surgery targets excess skin and fat, not fine wrinkles.
Is the scar visible?
Scars are usually hidden in natural eyelid creases and fade gradually over time.
How long does swelling last?
Most visible swelling improves within two weeks, although minor swelling can last longer.
Is the result permanent?
Results are long-lasting, but natural aging continues over time.
