Eyelid Surgery

Eyelid Surgery
Eyelid surgeries are called Blepharoplasties They are used to
correct the ways genetics and aging have affected the appearance
of the eyes When eyes become aged they seem fatigued, angry and
sometimes look sad Eyelid surgery greatly improves the
appearance of the entire face and allows the patient’s true
youth to be seen once again
Some of the best candidates for eyelid surgery are people who
have become unsatisfied with the appearance of their eyes
Generally the patients should be in good health and have a
realistic expectation of what the procedure can accomplish
There are certain medical conditions that are a relative risk
factor with Blepharoplasty Conditions such as high blood
pressure, dry eyes and hypothyroidism present some risk, so it’s
best to inform your surgeon if you suffer from any of these
conditions
The eyelid surgery procedure generally takes between one and
three hours, depending on the nature of the operation The
operation begins with the surgeon making small incisions along
the natural curves of your eyes, generally starting with the
upper lids Once the skin has opened the doctor begins to remove
the fatty deposits and any extra skin or muscle that causes the
eyelids to droop Very detailed sutures then hold the incisions
together to tighten and shape sagging skin and muscles
In certain situations, the doctor makes an incision on the
interior of the lower eyelid to remove fatty deposits that don’t
require skin adjustment This is known as transconjunctival
blepharoplasty and is most often performed on younger people who
have thicker and more elastic skin
