How Long Does Blepharoplasty Last? Understanding the Longevity of Results
One of the most common questions we hear at Restore Surgical Center is:
“How long will my blepharoplasty results last?”
The good news? Blepharoplasty is one of the longest-lasting facial procedures available, often with results that hold up for a decade or more.
What Affects How Long Results Last?
The longevity of your eyelid surgery depends on several factors:
- Your age at the time of surgery
- Genetics and skin quality
- Lifestyle habits (e.g., sun exposure, smoking, sleep)
- Whether upper, lower, or both eyelids are treated
On average:
- Upper eyelid surgery can last 10 to 15 years
- Lower eyelid surgery results can be permanent, though skin aging will still continue
Will I Ever Need It Again?
For many patients, blepharoplasty is a one-time procedure. Some may choose a minor revision years later as part of a refreshed cosmetic plan, but it’s rarely necessary unless desired.
