What to Expect

Depending on whether you need excess skin removed or not, you may have an incision just under the lower eyelid or above the upper eyelid. This incision is hidden in a wrinkle and, over time, heals very well and is very difficult to find.  There will be some swelling and bruising. You will be able to get back to light activity the following day after surgery. Small sutures will be removed 7 days after surgery.
