A blepharoplasty consultation is a personalised and essential step to determine if eyelid surgery is right for you. Here’s what you can expect during your visit:
1. Discussion of Your Concerns
The consultation begins with a conversation with Mr Kopsidas about your concerns and goals, such as:
Are you unhappy with sagging eyelids or under-eye bags?
Is your vision affected by excess skin?
What results are you hoping to achieve?
Mr Kopsidas will carefully listen to your needs to tailor his recommendations.
2. Medical History Review
Mr Kopsidas will review your overall health and medical history to ensure you're a good candidate for the procedure. Be prepared to discuss:
Any existing medical conditions, especially eye-related issues.
Current medications, supplements, or allergies.
Past surgeries or treatments, particularly on or around the eyes.
3. Physical Examination
A detailed examination of your eyes and surrounding areas will be conducted. This may include:
Assessing the skin's elasticity and the extent of drooping or puffiness.
Checking for conditions like dry eyes or other issues that may affect recovery.
Taking photographs to analyse your features and plan your treatment.
4. Treatment Plan Recommendations
Mr Kopsidas will explain how blepharoplasty can address your concerns. They may recommend:
Upper Eyelid Surgery: To remove excess skin that causes drooping or vision obstruction.
Lower Eyelid Surgery: To reduce puffiness and smooth under-eye bags.
Combined Procedures: If both upper and lower eyelids need improvement, or if complementary treatments like Botox or fillers could enhance your results.
5. Discussion of the Procedure
Mr Kopsidas will provide an overview of the procedure, including:
How it’s performed (local anesthesia).
Recovery timeline and expectations.
Potential risks and how they’re managed.
6. Q&A Session
This is your time to ask any questions, such as:
What is the recovery process like?
How long will results last?
Are there alternative treatments for my concerns?
Mr Kopsidas will ensure you feel informed and comfortable moving forward.
