Eyelid Lift

Eyelid Lift Surgery, or Blepharoplasty is a plastic surgery cosmetic procedure that removes excess eyelid skin and wrinkles, reduces puffiness or lower eye bags, and creates a more youthful look to the eyes,I have developed a special technique that has minimal pain and a quick recovery. If you do have discomfort, tylenol is usually all that’s needed. You will have some swelling of your neck as well as some bruising but it is usually very minimal. Most of the swelling and bruising resolves in a few weeks but it will take 3-4 months to see the final result. Initially you will have a large dressing wrapped around your head neck. You will need to keep this dressing on for the first 2 weeks.

About The Procedure

An Eyelid Lift Surgery, or Blepharoplasty is a plastic surgery cosmetic procedure that removes excess eyelid skin and wrinkles, reduces puffiness or lower eye bags, and creates a more youthful look to the eyes. As we get older, or sometimes genetically, there is excess hanging skin over the eyes or lower eye bags. This can make patients look tired and aged. My female patients often complain that they have trouble applying eyeshadow and their eyeliner constantly imprints itself higher up on the lid. My patients with excessive upper eyelid skin often feel tired – that they have to strain or lift their eyebrows to see or read. The puffiness to the lower lids makes patients look sad or sleepy. An eyelid lift surgery is designed to restore a more youthful appearance to your eyes and relieve some of these common complaints. It may involve the upper lids, the lower lids, or both. It is sometimes combined with a brow lift, or Botox around the eyes to create a complete harmonious appearance of the upper face. When it comes to eyelid lift surgery, I strongly believe in creating natural looking results. Too often this surgery is performed too aggressively especially with the upper eyelid, creating an unnatural “surprised” look, or changing the natural or cultural shape of the eye making it look fake.

In your consultation, I will take the time to understand what you hope to achieve as well as do a detailed facial evaluation. I will discuss with you the way a rhinoplasty can make your nose look in relation to your other facial features and ensure that I have a complete understanding of the specific changes you want to make. In rhinoplasty, every small detail matters. We will work together as a team to achieve your desired results. I encourage you to bring pictures of different noses to your consultation, both ones you like and dislike so we can discuss your aesthetic preferences in detail and I can have a better understanding of what you hope to achieve.I will do a detailed consultation, take a complete medical history and conduct a careful examination and develop a customized plan based on your anatomy as well as your aesthetic goals. I consider age, overall health, emotional well being, as well as expectations for surgery when evaluating a candidate for this procedure. Patients who smoke have a significantly higher risk of wound healing problems. I require patients to have stopped smoking for anywhere from 2 months to a year depending on their smoking history before having surgery. To minimize the possibility of excess bleeding.
