Blepharoplasty: Step-by-Step Breakdown of Eyelid Rejuvenation
An ellipse of loose skin of the upper eyelid is removed. If there is excess fat in the compartments around the eye causing bulges, this is removed. The wound is closed with a single absorbable stitch. For the lower eyelid blepharoplasty, the incision is made below the eyelashes. Once the skin and muscle has been lifted up, the fat is redraped over the bony rim of the orbit. This helps in reducing the naso-jugal groove depression, a prominent sign of ageing. The lower eyelid is then tightened by a procedure called canthopexy. Excess skin is then removed. Both the upper and lower eyelid scars heals very well and the scar is barely visible.
What kind of anesthesia is required?
Usually the procedure can be done under local anesthetic, but many would prefer a general anesthetic for improved comfort.
