Patients should go through two ‘’sizing consultations’’ before they decide on their implant size. This is usually done with the surgeon, nurse or patient coordinator before the surgery takes place. During the consultation, patients wear a special bra and top and try few different sizers in front of a mirror till they find the size they opt to have.
Implant shape depends on existing breast shape. Surgeons recommend considering your natural breast shape when choosing. Round implants suit round breasts with centered nipples, while teardrop implants work better for slightly droopy breasts with lower-set nipples.
Patients can opt for three implant planes:
A - Under the gland
B - Under the muscle
C - Dual plane
The key aim is to minimize risks like rupture, leakage, or feeling the implant edges by ensuring adequate natural tissue coverage.
In essence, Blepharoplasty, commonly known as an Eyelid lift, is a surgical technique that involves the removal of excess skin, muscle, and occasionally fat from the upper or lower eyelids. Notably, not all cases necessitate muscle removal; in some instances, the procedure focuses solely on skin adjustments.
Indeed not! Blepharoplasty surgeries address both upper and lower eyelids, ensuring meticulous care at London Cosmetic Surgery. Specifically, the upper eyelid procedure is often referred to as an eye lift surgery.
The need for Blepharoplasty may arise due to functional or cosmetic concerns. For instance, droopy eyelids (ptosis) often prompt individuals to seek eyelid surgery, aiming to tighten excess eyelid skin. Moreover, Blepharoplasty can contribute to improved vision, offering a clearer field of sight post-surgery, especially in cases of obstructed vision. It’s important to note the distinction between upper eyelid Blepharoplasty (eye lift) and upper eyelid ptosis surgery, which primarily involves tightening the muscles and tendons responsible for elevating the upper eyelid.
Functional eye lifts commonly address the removal of loose upper eyelid skin that impedes vision during daily activities such as driving or other visual tasks. Additionally, difficulties in wearing glasses or contact lenses stemming from saggy upper or lower eyelids are key indicators for considering Blepharoplasty.
At London Cosmetic Surgery, we prioritize not only functional but also cosmetic enhancements. The aging process may lead to droopy or baggy upper and sometimes lower eyelids, influenced by stretching eyelid skin, weakening muscles, and prominent fat pockets. In many cases, hereditary familial traits also contribute to these conditions, affecting the overall attractiveness of the eyes and face, potentially imparting a tired or older appearance. Rest assured, we are dedicated to delivering the safest and most satisfying outcomes for our patients.
The longevity of Blepharoplasty results is a consideration, given the ongoing aging process. Typically, an eye lift’s enhanced appearance is not permanent, prompting potential reconsideration of the procedure in the future. However, depending on various factors, Blepharoplasty can offer lasting results for up to 10 years—a considerable timespan for its efficacy.
Evaluating the severity of health issues is crucial in determining eligibility for Blepharoplasty. Factors such as smoking can heighten surgical complications due to slower healing. At London Cosmetic, smokers may receive advice to quit smoking several weeks prior to the procedure to mitigate potential risks.
The choice between local or general anaesthesia depends on the candidate’s medical condition. Most cases are conducted under local anaesthesia, keeping patients awake while numbing the area around the eyes. However, some individuals, based on their specific conditions or concurrent cosmetic procedures, may require general anaesthesia administered through an intravenous drug injection, inducing sleep throughout the procedure.

During the recovery phase, London Cosmetic Surgery ensures comfort, safety, and proper sanitation to achieve optimal results. We may recommend actions such as applying cold packs in the initial 48 hours, followed by warm compresses to expedite healing, tailored to each patient’s specific post-surgery needs.
