Introduction to Male Eyelid Surgery

Male blepharoplasty (also known as eyelid surgery or an eyelid lift) is the most common male cosmetic procedure and usually yields the most dramatic, immediate results.

What Is Male Eyelid Surgery?

Blepharoplasty focuses on the area around the eyes, eliminating sagging skin, fatty deposits, wrinkles, and/or drooping eyelids. It can also improve vision by minimizing heaviness and discomfort around the eyelids.

Male eyelid surgery is designed to preserve a masculine appearance while still addressing signs of aging or functional concerns. It focuses on maintaining a natural, strong, and less exaggerated contour, so that the male patient appears youthful and refreshed without looking “overdone.”

Men who do not smoke and who don’t have any underlying health issues can be good candidates for male blepharoplasty. Patients should also have reasonable expectations for the procedure’s outcome based on information provided by Dr. Surjit Rai and Dr. Vasdev Rai during the consultation in Dallas, TX. Frequently, male blepharoplasty patients are executives and professionals in their early 40s who want to maintain their competitive edge in their day-to-day work.

What to Expect on the Day of Male Eyelid Surgery

Eyelid surgery for men typically begins with the administration of general anesthesia. For the upper eyelids, an incision is made along the lid’s natural crease, allowing excess skin, fat, and sometimes muscle to be removed or repositioned. This helps reduce hooding and restores a more open-eyed look.

In the lower eyelids, the approach varies depending on patient need. If there is excess skin, an incision is made just below the lash line to remove or redistribute fat and tighten the skin.

Male Eyelid Surgery Recovery

Your Guide to Post-Eyelid Surgery Care

Recuperation from eyelid surgery will require about a week or two of downtime, followed by a gradual return to your routine. Swelling and bruising around the eyelids are the most apparent aspects of the recovery process.

These symptoms can take some time to clear up, but most patients are comfortable going out in public within about two weeks. Discomfort can be eased by using cold compresses, medication, and/or topical ointment, as directed by our team at The Cosmetic Surgical Center in Dallas, TX.

Male Blepharoplasty Results

You can expect to see the full effects of male blepharoplasty around the six-week mark. Your eyes will look much brighter, younger, and alert, but you may still have some mild residual puffiness while the sensitive tissues around your eyes continue to readjust.

With proper sun protection and a healthy lifestyle, your eyes will look refreshed for many years after your male blepharoplasty procedure. Almost all individuals who elect to have surgery on their eyelids will only need a single procedure to accomplish their cosmetic goals.

    He is the most caring doctor

    He is the most caring doctor , he is very precise , listens , explains every detail and has addressed every concern I had. Although I was scared to have the surgery it was very quick and I absolutely love the way that I look. The recovery was not at all what I thought it would be. Dr Rai is extremely good at what he does and has been amazing through out the whole entire process. Thank you so much for everything I honestly feel so much better !!

    Dr. Rai is the best in Dallas

    This is my second-time coming to Dr. Rai for my nose and breast and I never leave disappointed. He is so kind and truly an artist at his craft. His staff is so kind and always so helpful. I had multiple consultations with different doctors and let me tell you Dr. Rai is the best in Dallas. Look no further Dr. Rai has the experience and his kindness are like no other.

    I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Dr. Rai and his team.

    From the very first consultation, he listened with compassion, answered all of my questions, and made me feel completely supported in my decision to explant.

    The surgery itself went smoothly, and the results exceeded my expectations. What truly stood out, though, was the phenomenal aftercare. Dr. Rai and his staff checked in consistently, responded quickly whenever I had concerns, and made sure I felt cared for every step of the way.

  • MRKTMade_Rai-40-473

    I’m forever grateful for Dr. Rai and his team.

    They are so thorough, nice, calming, reassuring, supportive…. I could go on and on. I would recommend Dr. Rai over and over! You simply cannot go Wrong with making him your choice. My favorite thing about the whole process was after surgery HE personally calls and emails you until you are released from his care. HE personally talks to you on the phone and shows that he gives a crap about his patient. It’s not just a paycheck to Dr. Rai, he truly cares and actually shows it. You don’t have many drs SHOWING their genuine care outside of your surgery day. He’s there for his patients and I’m grateful for it bc he calmed so much anxiety!!! Plus, his work is WONDERFUL! 100/10 recommend!

    I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Surjit Rai and his staff!

     They were exceptional, from the time I made my appointment to my consultation, my surgery and post op care. The front desk staff made the scheduling easy, the pre and post op nurse was kind and put my nerves at ease. Dr. Rai is a skilled surgeon with a wonderful bedside manner, he explained the surgery and outcome very clearly and provided personal post op support. I am a nurse in the medical field and I would highly recommend him as a surgeon.
