I am planning to get pregnant. Can I perform upper eyelid blepharoplasty before pregnancy and can pregnancy affect the result of the operation? Is there a minimum time interval between surgery and pregnancy?

Answer: Cosmetic eyelid surgery is not medically necessary.
Hi from Istanbul. An upper and lower blepharoplasty, combined with the repositioning of fat pads, could effectively address your concerns, especially if complemented by deep microfat injections where necessary. Hope this helps, best of luck!
You are a great candidate for lower lid blepharoplasty with fat transposition. This surgery moves your natural fat to fill the tear trough and remove the “bag.” You also have ptosis of the left upper lid that needs to be addressed to restore symmetry. Best to see an eyelid expert.
