Rejuvenate Your Eyes

 

One of the first things noticed about you is your eyes. Inherited family traits or the natural aging process can result in eyelid wrinkles, deep lines, dark circles, and puffiness. These elements contribute to a tired, sad, or prematurely aged appearance.  

 

Eyelid lift surgery, also known as blepharoplasty or eyelid lift surgery, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin from both the upper and lower eyelids. Underlying fatty tissue (fat pads) that herniate (protrude) can produce the appearance of puffiness or bagginess.  

 

These fat pads can be selectively removed or repositioned for a more refreshed look. The result tightens drooping skin, reduces sagging and can even help to improve vision in some patients who have hooding on their upper eyelids. Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Frank L. Stile at Stile Aesthetics in Las Vegas, NV will be happy to personally meet with you to discuss all your aesthetic concerns and the options to treat them.

 

What is Eyelid Lift Surgery?

Dr. Stile may perform upper eyelid surgery, lower eyelid surgery, or a combination of both.  


Upper Eyelid Lift Surgery 

For upper eyelid surgery, Dr. Stile will make the incision within the natural fold of the eyelid. The incision will be extended outward as much as possible in order to address the fullness and skin folds located on the outside of the upper lid.  

 

After the incision is carefully made, Dr. Stile will remove excess fat and redundant skin. After the procedure, the incision will be closed with very small nylon sutures. Sutures are commonly removed at seven days following surgery. 

Lower Eyelid Surgery 

For lower eyelid surgery, the incision will be placed along the edge of the lash line. This incision allows for Dr. Stile to lift the eyelid skin and muscle, giving him access to the protruding fat pads. Fat pads may be trimmed or repositioned. Some eyelid skin is trimmed, allowing for the resulting lid to be smooth and taut when the procedure is completed. 

 

A special approach/technique is used for patients with puffy lower lids but good skin tone called transconjunctival blepharoplasty. Patients with dark under-eye circles caused by a lack of fat in the area could benefit from injectable volume enhancers (fillers)  or transferred fat to add volume to the undereye area and/or cheek. 

Upper and Lower Combined 

With some patients, both the lower and upper eyelids need to be addressed to correct all issues effectively. When both are combined, surgery will last approximately two hours.

*Individual Results May Vary

Am I a Good Candidate for Eyelid Surgery?

The best candidates for blepharoplasty: 

  • Have eyelid issues that cause them to look older. 
  • Have vision problems caused by droopy upper eyelids. 
  • Have droopy, down-turned eyelids as a result of aging or genetics. 
  • Have “bags” under the eyes. 
  • Desire a more refreshed, rejuvenated appearance. 
  • Desire a natural-looking result.

What Results Will I See?

Patients should expect natural-looking, younger, more refreshed eyelids after their surgery. Additionally, scars will not be visible due to both their placement and the incredible ability of eyelid skin to heal.

What is the Recovery Process Like? 

This is an outpatient surgical procedure. Patients are discharged home after a short recovery in our accredited center. After surgery, patients can expect the eyelids to be bruised and swollen to varying degrees. Cold compresses, medicated eye ointments or eye drops, Natural Tears and elevating the head will minimize these symptoms. These symptoms should only last a few days. Eyelid recovery is usually easy for most patients, and normal light activities can be resumed within a week with full exercise at three weeks.
