Blepharoplasty Treatment
Blepharoplasty Treatment is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin from the eyelids. As people age, their eyelids stretch, and the muscles supporting them weaken, leading to the accumulation of excess skin and fat above and below the eyelids. This can result in sagging eyebrows, droopy upper lids, and bags under the eyes. In addition to aesthetic concerns, severely sagging skin around the eyes can impair peripheral vision, particularly the upper and outer parts of the visual field. Blepharoplasty can effectively reduce or eliminate these vision problems and rejuvenate the appearance, making the eyes look younger and more alert.
Blepharoplasty Treatment works by removing or redistributing excess skin, muscle, and fat from the upper and lower eyelids. For the upper eyelids, the surgeon makes an incision along the fold of the eyelid, removes the excess tissue, and then closes the incision. For the lower eyelids, the incision is made just below the lashes or inside the lower lid, allowing the surgeon to remove or reposition the excess tissue. In cases where the upper eyelid droops close to the pupil, the procedure may be combined with ptosis surgery, which lifts the eyelid and removes excess skin.
Blepharoplasty Treatment typically begins with a consultation where your medical history, goals, and expectations are discussed. A physical exam, complete eye exam, visual field testing, and eyelid photography are usually performed to plan the surgery and support any insurance claims. Before the surgery, you will need to stop taking certain medications that can increase bleeding and quit smoking to enhance healing. Blepharoplasty is generally done on an outpatient basis with local anesthesia and intravenous sedation to keep you relaxed. The surgery involves precise incisions to remove or adjust excess tissue, followed by closing the incisions and applying a lubricating ointment and possibly a cold compress to the eyes.
Blepharoplasty Treatment not only improves the appearance of the eyes by removing excess skin, muscle, and fat but also enhances vision obstructed by sagging eyelids. Patients often feel more self-confident and appear younger and more rested after the procedure. While the results can be long-lasting, individual outcomes may vary, with some people experiencing a lifetime of improved appearance and others noticing a recurrence of droopy eyelids over time.
