Blepharoplasty Recovery
Bright, Youthful Eyes
Recovery from upper and lower blepharoplasty is generally quick and manageable. Most patients experience mild swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the first week, which can be alleviated with cold compresses and prescribed medications. Stitches are usually removed in the office within 6–7 days, and most individuals return to work and light activities after 10–14 days. As the healing process progresses, you’ll notice a more rested, youthful appearance, with smoother eyelids and reduced under-eye puffiness. By three months, your results will be fully realized, enhancing your confidence and brightening your overall facial expression. At Vermont Plastic Surgery, we’re here to support you through every step of your journey to refreshed, natural beauty.
