Weeks 1–2: Getting Back to Normal
As your body starts to heal, you’ll notice steady improvements.
1. Stitches and Incisions
● Stitches are typically removed within 7 – 10 days if they are non-dissolvable.
● Follow your surgeon’s instructions for cleaning and caring for the incision area.
2. Activity Restrictions
● Avoid heavy lifting, strenuous exercise, or bending over to prevent increased blood flow to the face.
● Light walking is encouraged to improve circulation and reduce swelling.
3. Skin Sensitivity
● Your skin will still be sensitive, so avoid makeup and harsh skincare products for 3 weeks, until your surgeon gives you the green light.
● Protect your healing skin from the sun with sunglasses and sunscreen once approved.
Weeks 3–4: Seeing the Results
By this stage, the swelling and bruising will have subsided significantly, and you’ll start noticing the results of your surgery. Most patients
feel comfortable returning to work and social activities. This is the time when your rejuvenated eyelids truly begin to shine.
Months 2–3: Long-Term Healing
While most of the healing happens within the first month, the final results of your blepharoplasty will be fully visible within 3 months. The
scars, if any, will gradually fade. Regular follow-ups with your surgeon at Royal Spanish Center will ensure optimal healing and
satisfaction with your results.
