IMPROVE THE APPEARANCE OF THE EYE AREA FOR PALM DESERT, INDIO, AND LOS ANGELES-AREA PATIENTS

The thin, delicate tissue surrounding the eye is often the first to show signs of facial aging. Many men and women who want to correct the look of wrinkles, sagging, puffiness, or under-eye hollows visit the Cosmetic Surgery Institute office to discuss eyelid surgery in Palm Desert. Eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, can improve both the upper and lower eyelids to refresh a tired appearance, create a more alert expression, and even improve vision by removing skin that droops and hangs over the eye itself.

OUR APPROACH TO EYELID SURGERY

The Cosmetic Surgery Institute team takes a comprehensive approach to eyelid surgery in order to treat a broad range of eye concerns. Unlike traditional eyelid surgery, which involves only the removal of skin from the upper or lower lids, our surgeons include the use of lasers and fat transfers to treat additional problems such as under-eye hollowness or crepey skin around the eyes. Not only will you appear more alert and approachable after eyelid surgery, but your blepharoplasty results will continue to improve over the next several months.

YOUR CHOICES FOR BLEPHAROPLASTY

WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT PUFFINESS OR HOLLOWNESS UNDER THE EYES?

Chronic under-eye puffiness is often the result of genetic factors and cannot be fully corrected through the use of creams or cosmetic products. For these patients, lower eyelid surgery is generally performed to reduce the look of under-eye bags.

Eyes that appear “sunken” or hollow are frequently the result of facial volume loss, which occurs with aging or weight reduction. A fat transfer can help to restore fullness to the under-eye area for a more youthful appearance and may even reduce dark circles for some patients.

HOW CAN I IMPROVE THE LOOK OF FOREHEAD CREASES?

A variation on brow lift surgery can elevate the brows 45 degrees, thereby widening the distance between the brows, restoring the brow arch, and minimizing creases between the eyebrows and on the forehead. This is a surgery that is very complementary to the results of blepharoplasty.

IF I'M NOT READY FOR EYELID SURGERY, WHAT NONSURGICAL OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE?

Cosmetic Surgery Institute also offers several injectable treatments to rejuvenate your appearance without eyelid surgery or other facial cosmetic surgeries, including BOTOX® Cosmetic, facial fillers, and laser skin resurfacing. These treatments are also effective after your blepharoplasty surgery and can help maintain or improve your results.

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM EYELID SURGERY

General anesthesia is most often used for your comfort during eyelid surgery. Your surgeon will first mark the area to be treated so as to minimize the appearance of scars. Then, small incisions are made in the upper or lower eyelids (usually along the lash line), and excess skin, fat, and tissue are removed. If a fat transfer is being performed as part of your blepharoplasty, your surgeon will position the fat graft in the appropriate location for added volume.

Tiny bandages may be applied to the eye area after surgery to promote healing. Your surgeon may recommend antibiotic eye drops for up to a week and a half after eyelid surgery and may also provide an ointment to prevent eye dryness. Usually, most people can return to their day-to-day activities within a few days. Moderate bruising and swelling will begin to fade over the next two weeks.

ENHANCING YOUR LOOK

Eyelid surgery is often complemented by nonsurgical treatments like BOTOX® Cosmetic and injectable fillers. For full facial rejuvenation, a facelift can also refresh a tired appearance and provide additional benefits by addressing contours on the lower portion of the face and neck. By altering overall facial contours instead of focusing on just one specific feature, many patients can achieve natural-looking rejuvenation.
