Eyelid Surgery

Dr. Fern, a renowned expert in eyelid surgery, offers comprehensive upper and lower blepharoplasty to help patients achieve a more youthful and vibrant appearance. Over time, the skin and supportive tissues around the eyes can lose their elasticity, leading to wrinkles and the formation of under-eye bags. This condition can make individuals appear older and perpetually tired, even when well-rested. In some cases, excessive upper eyelid skin can even impair vision.

Blepharoplasty performed by Dr. Fern meticulously removes excess skin, muscle, and fat from the eye area, resulting in a refreshed, alert, and attractive look. This procedure not only enhances aesthetic appeal but also contributes to improved functionality, especially when vision is affected by drooping eyelids. Dr. Fern’s eyelid surgery is often combined with other facial rejuvenation procedures, such as full or mini facelifts or mid-face lifts, to achieve even more dramatic results.

Treatment Procedure and Technique

The eyelid surgery procedure begins with a thorough consultation, where Dr. Fern evaluates the patient's specific needs and desired outcomes. During the surgery, small incisions are made in the natural folds of the eyelids, ensuring any scars are well-concealed. Excess skin, muscle, and fat are then carefully removed or repositioned. For lower eyelid surgery, an incision might be made just below the lash line or inside the lower eyelid, depending on the technique best suited for the patient’s anatomy and goals.

Dr. Fern utilizes the latest surgical techniques and state-of-the-art technology to ensure precision and minimize recovery time. Patients can expect a relatively quick recovery period, with most returning to normal activities within a week to ten days. Post-operative care is meticulously planned to promote healing and achieve optimal results.

Benefits of Eyelid Surgery

Eyelid surgery offers numerous benefits, including a more youthful appearance, enhanced self-confidence, and improved vision in cases where sagging skin interferes with sight. Patients often report feeling more energetic and rejuvenated after the procedure, reflecting their renewed appearance. Dr. Fern’s skillful approach ensures that the results are natural-looking, avoiding an overdone or artificial look.
