Everything about my blepharoplasty plastic surgery!

Plastic surgery can be a hot topic, but today I want to share my experience with Blepharoplasty surgery. A Blepharoplasty is a type of surgery that removes excess skin from the eyelids. After discussing with my doctor how this was affecting my eyesight, we both decided that this surgery would help with my peripheral vision. It was an "easy" surgery with minimal pain that I could handle with some Tylenol. I'm happy and pleased with how it looks as well as how much it helped with my sight!

Thank you for being so open and sharing your experiences. You look absolutely amazing. And having better vision is just icing on the cake!

[@BethDjalali]

you said it! I'm so happy my vision isn't impaired anymore. thanks for stopping by!

[@Oivey2000]

@@BethDjalali I had it 2 weeks ago, but strictly for cosmetic reasons (in conjunction with a face/neck lift). Just curious, how long did the lid tightness, lid numbness & residual swelling take to totally clear up? I still have all 3 but know I'm only 2 week post-surgery. Just curious what your experience was...I've heard anything from 3-4 weeks, to 4-6 weeks to 3 months.

[@donnaharris8722]

I am a mostly retired registered nurse. I recover cataracts one day a week. Our eye surgeon usually does one or 2 blephs on eye day. They usually look great even in Recovery. An ultimate compliment was when a patient asked me who did my eyes .

[@user-sn1ft4dg8r]

Going through it right now. Day 3 post op upper bleth. My experience exactly. I failed 2 field vision tests. No pain, Bruising yes. World looking brighter ❤

[@debbiegibson3604]

You look FANTASTIC! I had an upper blepharoplasty when I was 60. I am 75 now, and it still looks good. The best thing about it is that even when I am tired, I don't look it.

[@charlavinyard4203]

You.Look.Maaavelous. I had my eyes done when I was 56 (born with heavy upper lids) and I’m nearly 70. They still look great! You’ll notice improvement for 3-6 more months as your swelling goes completely away. I’m so happy for you! Way to go!😁

[@BethDjalali]

Thanks for sharing! I still have a bit of swelling in the corners of my eyes but I'm definitely on the mend.

[@anneh-lint8480]

At 65…I had breast cancer and a double mastectomy. Then I decided to do the upper and lower eyelids, just like you did. I had a reaction the stitches or cream. I’ll be tested soon. I had those other things , too. The other treatments really helped my skin. Next, bunion surgery. A lot of living ahead of me. Ann

[@nancyb2593]

I worked as a surgery scheduler for a plastic surgery group. While there, I had a number of plastic surgeries which included a blepharoplasty, and I have always loved it.

[@GladBurgio]

Hi Beth, I wanted to share another type of eye "surgery" that is less invasive. It's called "non-surgical Blepharoplasty". I'm 62 and had it done March 2022. It was done in a clinic by a plastic surgeon. So important to go to a surgeon ONLY. I'm very happy with my results. I wish I could attach before and after pictures but no way to do that here. At age 50, I noticed my eyelids "disappeared." I can wear eyeshadow & mascara again. Recovery time was a week for the scabs to fall away. A few months until normal eyelid color returned. It's very important to avoid the sun when healing and use a non-stinging SPF on eyelids for at least a month. My out of pocket cost was under $1000 including follow up visits. Yes, it wasn't pretty for the first week in recovery - even scary. But worth it! No scarring, no stitches, no pain. I should mention that it took under one hour (+ 45 minutes for numbing cream) and I drove home 90 minutes away immediately afterwards. Although better to have someone else drive! I also do microneedling RF at the same clinic. I've had Botox but too late for me for it to make a difference. That's the extent of my procedures. Hope this helps someone considering Blepharoplasty 🤩

[@BethDjalali]

Thanks for sharing!

[@marlagardner1804]

I had the same surgery earlier this year on upper eyelids only. My vision was better the moment he told me to open my eyes. I couldn’t believe it! I was awake during the procedure but never felt a thing. He wanted me awake so he could do his best to ensure I could close my eyes. Recovery was about the same as you described. I just turned 60. It’s wonderful to put on mascara and eye shadow and not have it bleed under my eyes! I would do it again in a heartbeat. My insurance would only pay for upper eyes.

[@BethDjalali]

I'm so happy to hear you're pleased with the results!

[@Undisclosed86467]

You have beautiful skin. It's obvious that you live a healthy lifestyle. I do my own microneedling with a dermapen and absolutely love the results. Not only does my face benefit, but I have vastly improved my ugly hysterectomy surgical scar which was hypertropic.

Beth, thank you for sharing this experience. Your results are beautiful and your advice is on target!

[@BethDjalali]

[@janetstevenson8521]

Beth you did a very good job of explaining the procedure. Like you, at age 64, my optometrist recommended me to have blepharoplasty and my insurance did cover the procedure. I was not a candidate for the lower lids but definitely needed the upper lids done. My plastic surgeon did an excellent job. I think it is so important to use a good plastic surgeon and to do your reseach first. I was very nervous but so pleased afterward and downtime was minimal. I am 77 now and so glad I had that surgery. Having cataract surgery a couple of years ago was also very scary but so worth it. You look amazing! Thank you for sharing this with us.

[@susanlarkin3790]

I was talking about this very thing this morning. Thank you for walking us through your experience. I actually had no idea that a doctor would recommend the procedure due to vision impairment! That is a great new piece of info!

[@BethDjalali]

Glad it was helpful!

[@lisahays855]

I have had upper eyelid blepharoplasty twice. Both times were a good experience with no complications. I think the reason I needed it a second time was my surgeon was very conservative in how much skin he removed since I also already have dry eye syndrome. I have noticed that my incision line this time has taken longer to lighten up and thin out. It has been five months. But I definitely noticed a change in my vision both times. As surgery goes, this is not a bad one. My advice would be to make certain that the surgeon is certified in orbital and Oculoplastic surgery. My sutures dissolved

[@dvorahmariscal7963]

Absolutely agree that the surgeon should be Board Certified in both areas. You want the best when it comes to your eyes.

[@marieguerra5975]

I was contemplating if I should use my certified plastic surgeon, to do my blepharoplasty. I feel the oculoplastic surgeon would be more experienced with any problems that might come up !!

I had my uppers done last February and I'm still very pleased. I could see my lid out of the corner of my eye. I didn't even ask for insurance to cover it as I wanted it done immediately and it was only $1800. My husband gave me a breast reduction and lift at the same time! Super pleased with it as well, went from DDD to C. And in my 5'1" frame it made a big difference.

[@mnop1774]

Thank you Beth! How refreshing to see someone open and forthcoming with procedures. I'm a firm believer in it being a personal choice. Body autonomy is how I see it and it's not my place to say what anyone else "should" or "should not" do. It's all about personal freedom and who am I to pass judgement. What does bother me are those who claim they've never had work done and it's all good genes, healthy lifestyle, you name it. That's not okay imo. Anyway you look great!

[@Dianapohl]

I had similar surgery done in August as well. The initial purpose was to repair the muscle on the lower right eyelid, which was shot, resulting in the eyelid turning inward and the lashes irritating the eyeball. That was miserable! When I went to the eye surgeon, I asked about my upper lids, which were impeding my vision dramatically. She lifted both upper lids and repaired the muscle on the lower right lid but left the lower left lid alone. Shortly after the surgery, the lower left lid started to turn in as well, and I now am having that repaired in early December. If I'd have looked as good as you post-op, I'd have been thrilled! I was a mess, but I don't regret that one bit because I can see so much better. My eyes have genetically large bags below them, which I would have to pay to have repaired, so that's not happening because of the expense; however, friends and acquaintances comment on how much more open my eyes appear.Thanks for sharing! I sent photos to my closest friends and kids but could never have shared with others. You look amazing!!!

[@BethDjalali]

I hope you’re doing well! Yes, having our vision restored is the best! Speedy recovery in December.

Beth before you have any type of Plastic Surgery on your face two weeks before you have the surgery start taking large doses of Calcium with Magnesium which comes in liquid form if you prefer and Vitamin C at least 12K of Vitamin C and follow the instructions on the container for the Cal-Mag then add another dose. Most Plastic Or Reconstructive surgeons know about this combo before and after surgery . If you take these I can promise you that you will have little bruising afterward and will heal much faster. My best friend had one of the first Health Food stores here and she had a lot of Plastics done but you would never know it and we both have fair sensitive skin. She was a blonde and i am blonde with a lot of natural red in my hair. We both healed quickly from our Plastics with almost no scaring. Just tuck this away for any future Plastics, Trust me it really works.

Your eyes look great. I just viewed your video even though it was a yea ago. I would love to see a before picture to be able to determine if I could qualify for my insurance to pick up some of the cost. Thank you so much for sharing.

Only an ophthalmologist can make that decision. It’s all about your field vision and whether you pass or fail that vision test,

I honestly don’t think you look bad after your surgery, of course you’re bruised, which is to be expected, but all and all, still a beautiful lady. 👏👏👏

You are so welcome!

Thanks for sharing and being so honest. You look amazing!

You look great Beth. Following significant weight loss I had a tummy tuck 6 years ago at 59. Best thing I ever did. I would love to have my eyes done too cos I have droopy lids but still thinking about it. I'm in the UK and we don't have medical insurance for anything cosmetic so cost is the big consideration. Thanks for sharing.

I had a tummy tuck at age 55. I am 60 now. I had 5 kids all with c-section. My first child was 12 lbs and the rest were 10 lbs. I have always been slim. My tummy after having a total of 5 c-section had tons of loose skin. I am so happy I was brave to have this major surgery. It was not easy. Thank you Beth for sharing. Greetings from Arizona.

I had an upper blepharoplasty 15 years ago and it still looks good. This past summer, I opted to have lower blepharoplasty. Like you, I had no bags....just some loose skin that I thought would look better if it were a bit tighter. I saved my pennies and needed a lot of them as the lower procedure cost $6,000! It took a very long time to heal with tremendous bruising. From the time I had the procedure until I had no more bruising was two months. After two months, I truly saw zero difference from pre-op. I asked my daughters who are extremely blunt and they said the same. Now, 7 months out, I still see no difference. I regret spending the money now. When you speak to your surgeon, be sure you know what to expect. Often, whether it be creams, potions or procedures, we are buying into the dream.

I’ve had cosmetic surgery and I feel great about it. I’m 65 and wish I’d done it when I was a little younger.

Good for you. You have beautiful blue eyes. I am planning on having my eyes done within a couple of years. A present to myself.

[@BethDjalali]

Best of luck!

[@katrinabowers5088]

Very helpful, honest video-thanks for your transparency

[@cinza6670]

Thank you for your insights. I am going to have this procedure this month. Nervous but optimistic. Prepping my home ,food , people in my corner for support. I am all natural gal but the upper eye sagging became a issue. Now to deal with it and take care so it’s got a real chance for success.

[@endeavouringit]

I looked at vlogs before you had the surgery and can't see why you needed it, I wish you showed before and after photos.

[@BethDjalali]

My eyesight was impaired. Thats the reason for the surgery

[@jaclynmoylan1905]

Heavy eyelids are in my family and I’m considering this procedure for all the reasons you talked about. I don’t know if I will fail the test, but I plan on getting it done either way.
