There is absolutely only one person on earth who can answer this question and that is the general surgeon who will be doing your gallbladder surgery. The vast majority of these surgeries are performed endoscopically with or without robotic assistance. Recovery is much faster than open gallbladder surgery. Still we are talking about abdominal surgery. Hopefully your surgery is uneventful and you are quickly on the mend. Your general surgeon will give you an idea of when they think it is appropriate for you to then have upper eyelid surgery. As an eyelid surgeon, I personally would not schedule cosmetic eyelid surgery until you were at least 4 months out from gallbladder surgery and doing well.
These two surgeries have no connection. Lower blepharoplasty is probably going to be done in local or twilight anesthesia. So, as soon as you recover from gallbladder surgery you can do blepharoplasty. Good luck.
This is totally dependent on each surgeons opinion. There’s no reason why you couldn’t have eyelid surgery immediately after gallbladder removal as long as everything goes fine with the first procedure.Some surgeons may want you to wait a specific amount of time, so I suggest you ask your providers.Best,Mats Hagstrom, MD
