 

EYELID SURGERY (BLEPHAROPLASTY) TOLEDO, OH | JOHN F. ZAVELL, MD, FACS

UNDERSTANDING BLEPHAROPLASTY

Over time, the skin around your eyes loses elasticity. The area around
the eyes is one of the first to show signs of aging. Blepharoplasty
reshapes droopy or puffy eyelids, providing a more youthful look and
better peripheral vision.

WHAT IS BLEPHAROPLASTY?

Eyelids begin to droop with age, making you appear older and tired. In
some cases, sagging eyelids can obstruct vision. Also known as eyelid
surgery, blepharoplasty tightens the area around your eyes by removing
excess skin and fat pockets from upper and lower eyelids.

UPPER EYELID PROCEDURE

An upper eyelid blepharoplasty addresses sagging upper eyelids that
can make you look tired or limit your field of vision. The procedure
involves:

 	* General anesthesia and IV sedation for patient comfort
	* Incision along the eyelid crease
	* Trimming excess skin and tightening remaining tissue
	* Closing incision with ultra-fine sutures to minimize scarring

LOWER EYELID PROCEDURE

A lower eyelid blepharoplasty addresses under-eye bags by removing fat
deposits that create a sunken or aged appearance. Techniques include:

 	* Incisions inside or outside the eyelid
	* Removal or redistribution of fat deposits
	* Correction of sagging skin

The best candidates for blepharoplasty:

 	* Maintain good overall health
