When considering blepharoplasty (aka eyelid surgery), it’s wise to have a clear understanding of the procedure, recovery, and expected results. Asking the right questions during your consultation can help you feel confident about your decision and ensure the surgery aligns with your goals. At Bay Area Laser Cosmetic Surgery Center, Dr. Armen Serebrakian combines years of expertise with a personalized approach to help each patient achieve their aesthetic vision.
What Are My Options?
Start by understanding the basics of the procedure. Ask whether upper eyelid surgery, lower eyelid surgery, or a combination of both is recommended for your unique concerns. Learn about the differences between functional and cosmetic blepharoplasty and how the surgery can address issues such as drooping eyelids, puffiness, or under-eye bags.
Am I a Good Candidate for Blepharoplasty?
Candidacy depends on various factors, including your overall health and skin tautness. Dr. Serebrakian will evaluate whether blepharoplasty is the right solution for you and discuss any medical or lifestyle considerations that could impact your results.
What Results Can I Expect?
While blepharoplasty can deliver significant improvements, understanding the realistic outcomes is crucial. Ask about what changes you can expect, whether the procedure will address your concerns fully, and how the results will change over time due to the natural aging process.
What Is the Recovery Process Like?
Recovery plays a key role in your experience. Ask about downtime, how long it takes to resume daily activities, and any steps you can take to promote healing. Dr. Serebrakian provides clear post-operative care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery. The good news is that blepharoplasty is less
What Experience Do You Have With Blepharoplasty?
Dr. Serebrakian’s extensive training and experience in facial and cosmetic surgery make him an excellent choice for this procedure. However, if you are outside of California and meeting with another plastic surgeon, it is fair to check credentials and ask to see before-and-after photos.
What Techniques Will Be Used During My Surgery?
There are various approaches to eyelid surgery. Discuss which techniques will be used, whether there will be visible scarring, and how the procedure will be tailored to your anatomy and goals.
