At what age can I start applying Botox?No, eyelid plastic surgery is not risk-free. Eyelid and facial plastic surgeries are among the most common aesthetic procedures performed by plastic surgeons. Blepharoplasty, cheek lifts, and face lifts are very popular alternatives for people who want to rejuvenate their appearance. All of these procedures are safe, but as in any surgery, eyelid plastic surgery can sometimes go wrong. We have all heard stories of “botched” faces and severe complications after plastic surgery. The risks involved in these surgeries are not higher than most surgeries in general; they are certainly lower than other surgeries, such as heart surgery or spine surgery. However, your face makes you who you are! You cannot take the risk of a poorly done operation on your face. There are risks involved in aesthetic surgery, but they can be prevented in most cases. Choosing the right surgeon is the first step to guarantee a smooth and risk-free operation.
