| Blepharoplasty - Eye Lid Correction As we age, excess skin forms in the eye area and the skin loses elasticity. Fatty tissue can accumulate under the skin. Your eyes will "look older" because these aging processes leave the eyes appearing tired, wrinkled, or puffy. Even with a good skincare and eye care regimen, wrinkles, puffiness, and drooping eyelids will catch up with you. Genetic factors and body chemistry can cause these aging effects in younger people. Surgery may restore a youthful and refreshed appearance to your eyes. How it Works The procedure is done by using local anesthesia and oral sedation. A CO2 laser is used to remove the excess skin or fat from the treatment area. To treat sagging upper eyelids, incisions are made along the natural lines of the upper eyelids to camouflage any possible incision markings. For lower lids, incision are made just below the lashes. For removing fat from beneath lower eyelids, transconjunctival blepharoplasty maybe performed. During this procedure incisions are made on the inside of the lower eyelid to eliminate any possible eyelid of visible scaring. Tiny sutures are utilized following the procedure to seal any open wounds. After The Procedure Following the procedure, patient should apply wrapped ice compressions to the eyes for thirty minutes every hour for 24 hours. Patients should sleep at a 30 to 45 degree angle for the first three days following the procedure. It is important to apply antibiotic ointment to the sutured area 3 to 4 times a day. Following the procedure, patients should avoid sun exposure. Heavy exertion or lifting should be avoided for one week. Patients should avoid taking aspirin following the procedure and instead opt for Tylenol or Advil. The proper way to clean your eyes: Use of cold compresses Use of lubricating eye drops Head elevation No makeup No alcohol No contact lenses |
