What's the blepharoplasty recovery process for ptosis on both eyes?

Recovery for blepharoplasty typically involves bruising which lasts up to two weeks. Swelling is also common and expected. Treatment includes cold compresses to the area, keeping the area slightly elevated for the first few days post op, and arnica supplements. Swelling is mostly resolved after about a month.

Typically swelling lasts 1-2 weeks. Sutures come out around 10 days or so. Usually after 3-4 weeks you are back to normal activities. Hope that helps.

For the type of ptosis surgery I perform, the initial recovery phase is usually about 5-7 days, at which time sutures come out.

Bruising generally takes 1-2 weeks, but most patients have resolution at 1 week.

The majority of the swelling resolves at 1 month, with significant improvements every week.
