Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do I schedule an appointment for blepharoplasty?

To see if rhinoplasty would help you, please call our office to get an offer. You can reach our office at +(90) 212 347 9668 or send an e-mail now to info@pietrahealth.com.

2. What results can I expect?

Brighter, tighter, and more open eyes. Droopy eyelids and excessive skin are no more. The results can be subtle but impactful, and will last for years. You should look natural, yet more alert and vibrant.

3. Will I get different results if surgery is performed with a laser instead of a scalpel?

The result won’t depend on what cutting tool is used, but how skilled your surgeon is using it. Assuming the skill level of the surgeon is the same, your results will be the same. Which tool is used typically depends on the surgeon's preference.

4. Will eyelid surgery fix my peripheral vision?

Eyelid surgery only fixes peripheral vision that is blocked by droopy eyelids. There are many other causes of peripheral vision loss, including glaucoma, occlusions, a detached retina or a compression of the optic nerve. If you are experiencing peripheral vision loss, it is important to schedule an appointment with our eye doctor for a thorough examination and diagnosis.

5. How can I expect my face to look over time?

Your eyelid surgery results should be long-lasting. For the most part, removal of hooding and upper eyelid skin is a procedure that is performed only once. As aging continues, your brow can drop or descend, causing excess skin to reappear on the upper eyelid, but in this case the solution is a brow lift, not a second upper blepharoplasty. Lower blepharoplasty is usually performed to remove eye bags and puffiness around the eyes, and it too should only need to be performed once.
