    Actually the surgery of blepharoplasty will not only intense your skin around the eyes corner but also change shape of your eyes because of the role of the tightness. You should protect the eyes carefully after the surgery which may make your recovery get on quickly. You should not use the eyes too much time with little rest. You are forbidden to smoke or drink.
