Brighten Up Your Eyes — Expert Eyelid Surgery with a Touch of Istanbul Magic

If your eyelids are feeling heavy or your eyes look more tired than you feel, you’re not alone.

You’re not alone, and it’s totally normal to want a fresher, more awake look.

At Oceanscape Group, we combine top-notch surgical care with a smooth, supportive experience that might just include a little bit of Istanbul’s charm (and maybe some baklava on the side).

Thinking about refreshing your look or addressing functional concerns? We’re here to guide you.

What is Blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty is a surgery that removes extra skin, fat, or muscle from the upper or lower eyelids. It can help reduce drooping lids and under-eye bags. For some people, it also improves side vision when drooping eyelids block their sight.

Sometimes, functional improvements — like better vision — are included in the same surgery.

Who is Suitable for This Surgery?

People who might consider blepharoplasty include adults who:

• Have drooping upper eyelids

• Notice puffiness or bags under their eyes

• Feel their eyes look tired or aged

• Experience vision problems caused by eyelid skin

• Have trouble with makeup or contact lenses due to eyelid shape

  
  

Your surgeon will assess whether this surgery is safe and appropriate for you.

Types of Eyelid Surgery Offered

• Upper eyelid surgery: Removes excess skin and fat from the upper lids

• Lower eyelid surgery: Addresses under-eye puffiness or bags

• Transconjunctival surgery: An internal approach with no visible scars

• Functional surgery: Aimed at improving vision obstructed by eyelid drooping

  
  

Your treatment plan will be tailored to your individual needs.

What to Expect During Surgery

• The surgery usually takes 30 to 90 minutes

• It is done under local or twilight anesthesia.

• Incisions are made in natural skin folds or inside the eyelid to reduce visible scarring.

• Patients usually go home the same day.

Recovery and Aftercare

You may experience swelling, bruising, or mild discomfort after surgery. Here is a typical recovery timeline:

• Days 1–3: Swelling and mild discomfort; cold compresses help reduce swelling.

• Days 5–7: Stitches are removed; makeup can be reintroduced gradually.

• Week 2: Most swelling reduces; appearance improves.

• Month 1: Results settle; most normal activities resume.

• Months 3–6: Final results appear as scars fade.

  
  

Aftercare instructions are important for healing and will be provided by your surgeon.

Q: How long does the surgery take?

A: Typically, the procedure lasts between 30 and 90 minutes depending on the complexity.

Q: When can I return to normal activities or work?

A: Most patients can return to light activities and work within 7 to 10 days, but full recovery varies individually.
