Blepharoplasty Treatment Options: What is Blepharoplasty Treatment?
Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) reduces bagginess from lower eyelids and removes excess skin from the upper eyelids.
How does Blepharoplasty work?
Also known as “eyelid surgery”, this procedure uses ultra pulse carbon dioxide laser to remove excess fat cells and loose skin. The laser’s precision and safety now make it a preferred method for many patients; because the laser actually seals off blood vessels, the procedure is nearly bloodless.
What is a Blepharoplasty session like?
This procedure uses the ultra pulse carbon dioxide laser to remove excess fat cells and loose skin. The laser’s precision and safety now make it a preferred method for many patients; because the laser actually seals off blood vessels. By combining blepharoplasty with Botox, you can expect a substantial improvement in lines or crow’s feet. Tightening the lower eyelid at the same time as blepharoplasty can produce even better results. Laser blepharoplasty normally takes anywhere from about 60-90 minutes, and you may return to work within a week, looking well-rested and refreshed.
What can Blepharoplasty treat?
As skin ages, it gradually loses its elasticity. A lack of elasticity plus the constant pull from gravity causes excessive skin to collect on the upper and lower eyelids.
Excess skin on the lower eyelid causes wrinkles and bulges. On the upper eyelids, an extra fold of skin can hang over the eyelashes and hinder proper vision.
What results can be expected from Blepharoplasty?
Upper eyelid surgery can last at least five to seven years. Lower eyelid surgery rarely needs to be repeated. Of course, your eyes will still age and sag over time, which may warrant additional procedures.
