The blepharoplasty done every year in the United States has increased more than double in few years. Well-performed blepharoplasty surgery yields a natural-appearing improvement of the most significant feature of the face i.e. eyes with no breaking the bank or putting you out of action for few months at a time. With a skilled blepharoplasty surgeon, the operation is fairly secure comparative to other plastic and cosmetic surgery operations. Recovery from blepharoplasty is relatively painless, and the enhancement is lasting for long.
However, not every patient will be pleased with the outcome of surgery. Of course, some patients may experience blepharoplasty complications due to some reason. Still, there are other patients who have undergone aesthetically and technically with all particulars in a proficient blepharoplasty surgery but at the end remain unhappy. Such patients tend to come under several categories:
• The patients who prefer blepharoplasty to appear naturally fresher but then they only found its predictable result as "different"
• The patients who actually wish to look different rather naturally fresher but did not achieve that unachievable fantasy shape.
• The patients who undergo blepharoplasty for their eyelids to look like those people who are especially a model or celebrity.
• Those patients who thought surgical accuracy is perfect and absolute.
• The patients who think healing from blepharoplasty is a fast and effortless process.
• The patients who think blepharoplasty surgeons are magicians rather than professional doctors.
• The patients who demanded a conformist result from blepharoplasty but then were unhappy about their probable "undercorrection"
• Those aged patients having advanced changes or damaged tissues or unhealthy eyes and they gone under blepharoplasty.
• The patients with few visible facial problems such like a droopy and bulgy face which require face lift.
• The patients with psychological problems.

Eye Creams and Gels for Blepharoplasty
In recent years, eye creams are appearing with more additive which can do little more that just a mere moisturizer. These creams are called cosmeceuticals that haze the difference between drugs and cosmetics. For example:
Antioxidants are widely advertised for the aid in protection from sun damage, retrain inflammation and endorse healing. These antioxidants are Vitamin C, Vitamin E, lipoic acid and co-enzyme Q. These antioxidants are helpful in case of blepharoplasty. There are modest or no justification for these antioxidants which remain completely unconfirmed in real-life clinical situations for blepharoplasty. This is similar to what happening inside a biochemist’s test tube. Such designed antioxidants should be used with the opinion of expert blepharoplasty surgeon or respected research dermatologist. Under a controlled observation, it is found that vitamin E actually worsened the appearance of scars after blepharoplasty in over 90% of patients.
Alpha-hydroxy acids are said to help for wrinkles by thickening dermis and epidermis with new collagen. These alpha-hydroxy acids are also known as "fruit acids" and glycolic acid. Alpha-hydroxy acids are also used to improve skin luster by retreating the irregular build-up of keratin.

After Blepharoplasty Avoid too Much Exposure to Direct Sunlight
The main determinant of irregular pigmentation and eyelid wrinkle is the "Photoaging" due to cumulative effect of ultraviolet light exposure in direct sunlight. The too much UV exposure to the direct sunlight after blepharoplasty can also thicken eyelid skin to leathery texture and may result structural stretching. This may increase the risk of developing skin cancer.
The advanced sunscreens or sunblocks are the most effective methods to protect the eyelids from ultra violet damage after blepharoplasty. The use of sunscreens and sunblocks after blepharoplasty can slightly irritate eyes once they melt and make way into the tear. When spending time outdoor in direct sunlight use sunglasses or visor or long hat to better protect your eyelids. Such preparations are highly desirable after blepharoplasty for use on skin next to tender eyes. The regular use of moisturizer cream containing antioxidants on the eyelids may also protect you against the photoaging due to UV lights.
Sun tanning in control after blepharoplasty is not an issue because the incision at the upper eyelid is tucked on the crease into the depths. The incision is commonly placed on the inside surface of the lower eyelid. Sun tanning is a mistake after the eyelid chemical peel, especially for the first two or three months after peeling when exposure to sunlight UV may cause in blotchy over-pigmentation.
