What To Expect At Blepharoplasty Consultation With Dr. Hitesh Laad ?

During your initial consultation with Dr. Hitesh Laad , of Authentic Hair Transplant and Cosmetic Centre, Pune, Dr. Hitesh Laad will discuss any health issues or medications you are taking before surgery to ensure it is safe for both eyes and eyelids. Dr. Hitesh will also check if there’s anything else in the way like allergies, medications, or vitamins.

Dr. Hitesh Laad will also test your vision and assess how well you produce tears during the consultation. You might also be asked to provide any relevant information from an ophthalmologist about recent eye exams.

Dr. Hitesh Laad will talk about your goals and expectations for the surgery. You’ll have to decide whether to perform a blepharoplasty procedure on all four eyelids, just the upper or lower eyelid, whether skin, as as well as fat, would be removed, and if any additional procedures would be required.

You should feel comfortable asking the surgeon any question you may have. It is important for your peace of mind and safety that all worries about procedures are addressed before they begin, so don’t hesitate! The consultation will help with this goal as well by allowing time to go over everything in detail- from expectations on both sides (surgeon’s side & patient) to concerns or fears regarding results.

How Is Blepharoplasty Surgery Performed?

Blepharoplasty may take from one to three hours, depending on the degree of surgery. Dr. Hitesh Laad will most likely start with the top lids and then work on the lower ones if you’re getting all four eyelids treated.
Dr. Hitesh Laad makes incisions in the creases of your upper lids, and just beneath the lashes in the lower lids during a standard procedure. The cuts may extend into the crow’s feet or laugh lines at the outer edges of your eyes.
The skin is separated from underlying fatty tissue and muscle, extra fat is removed, and sagging skin and muscle are trimmed using a scalpel. The incisions are then sealed with tiny stitches.
Dr. Hitesh Laad may perform a transconjunctival blepharoplasty on you if you have a pocket of fat beneath your lower eyelids but don’t need to have any skin removed. The incision is made inside your lower eyelid in this procedure, leaving no obvious scar. It’s usually done on younger individuals with more elastic and thicker skin.
After surgery, your eyes will most likely be coated with ointment and a bandage applied to them. When the anesthesia wears off, your eyelids may feel tight and painful, but you can manage any discomfort with prescription pain medication. If you experience severe agony, contact Dr. Hitesh Laad immediately.

What Factors Affect The Cost Of Blepharoplasty In Pune?

If the blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery is done simply for aesthetic reasons, the procedure will not be paid for by insurance. However, if a medical or functional cause of blindness is identified, insurance may cover the repair. The following factors have an impact on the overall prices of blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery in Pune:

Fees for consultation with doctor
Medical staff fees
Cost of the surgical facility
Cost of pre-surgical tests, and post-surgery dressings and garments The cost of blepharoplasty is determined by a number of factors, such as the type of surgery performed, the technique utilized, the surgeon’s experience and expertise, the clinic or hospital’s location, and facility accreditation.

What Happens After Blepharoplasty Surgery?

Dr. Hitesh Laad may advise you to keep your head raised for several days and to apply ice packs to reduce swelling and bruising (bruising varies from person to person; it peaks during the first week and usually lasts between 2 weeks to a month).
You’ll be shown how to clean out your eyes, which may take a few days to get used to. Many doctors recommend eye ointments because your eyelids may feel scratchy at first and your eyes might hurt or itch.
For the first few days, you may also experience increased tearing, sensitivity to light (such as when you look at bright lights), and temporary changes in your vision, such as blurring.
Dr. Hitesh Laad will be watching your progress closely for the first week and up to 10 days. Your stitches will be removed two to seven days after surgery. As soon as they’re out of your eye, the swelling and discoloration around your eyes will slowly subside, and you’ll start to look and feel a lot better.
After two or three days, you should be able to read books or watch TV. But you shouldn’t wear contacts for about two weeks, at least not right away. And even after that, they might feel uncomfortable for a while until your eyes adjust.
Most people feel ready for public exposure and work after one to two weeks. After that, depending on the rate at which you heal and Dr. Hitesh Laad ’s instructions, you‘ll probably be able to put on makeup to cover up any remaining bruises.
You may be sensitive for several weeks after exposure to sunlight, wind, or other irritants, so you should wear glasses and a special sunscreen lotion for your eyes when you go outside.
Dr. Hitesh Laad will likely advise you to rest for three to five days after your surgery and to avoid any strenuous activity for about three weeks. It’s especially important to avoid activities like bending, lifting, and vigorous sports that raise your blood pressure. You may also be advised not to drink alcohol because it causes fluid retention.

What Are The Risks Of Blepharoplasty Surgery?

If eyelid surgery is performed correctly, complications are rare and usually minor. However, there is always a risk of complications, including infection and a reaction to the anesthetic. You can reduce your risk by closely following Dr. Hitesh Laad ’s instructions both before and after your surgery.
Blepharoplasty is usually a safe procedure, but there may be some minor complications, including a double or blurred vision, temporary swelling at the corners of the eyes, and a slight asymmetrical appearance in healing or scarring after surgery.
After your stitches are taken out, there is a small chance that tiny whiteheads might appear. However, these can be removed easily with an extremely fine needle.
Some patients may experience temporary difficulties closing their eyes when they go to sleep after having had eye surgery.
Another very rare complication of eyelid surgery is ectropion, when the lower lid pulls down. If this happens again, further surgery may be needed.

Keep in mind that all these complications are rare and will not happen to every patient. Dr. Hitesh Laad takes the utmost care to ensure that no risks or complications occur.
