Blepharoplasty McLean by Mesbahi Plastic Surgery
Blepharoplasty in McLean, VA | Mesbahi Plastic Surgery
Understanding Eyelid Surgery
The eyes are a critical focal point of facial appearance, and excess skin can obscure their natural beauty. Sagging tissue around the eyes not only creates cosmetic concerns but can also impair vision. Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, offers a comprehensive solution to address both functional and aesthetic challenges.
Benefits of Blepharoplasty
- Correct drooping upper eyelids that obstruct vision
- Remove puffy under-eye bags
- Improve appearance of wrinkles and fine lines
- Create a more youthful and refreshed look
Procedure Details
Blepharoplasty is performed using general anesthesia or IV sedation. Dr. Mesbahi can address upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both, depending on individual patient needs.
Upper Eyelid Technique
The procedure involves carefully removing loose skin and fatty tissue, with incisions strategically placed along the natural lid crease to minimize visible scarring.
Lower Eyelid Technique
Lower eyelid surgery targets puffy and bulging skin beneath the eye, with incisions made below the lash line to remove excess tissue and gently lift the skin.
Candidate Considerations
Ideal candidates for blepharoplasty include individuals with excess, drooping skin on upper eyelids or bulging skin beneath lower eyelids. Both women and men can benefit from this transformative procedure.
Recovery and Results
Patients can expect mild bruising and swelling following the procedure, with noticeable improvements visible after approximately two weeks. Full recovery and optimal results continue to develop over time.
Insurance and Consultation
In cases where excess skin impacts vision, insurance may cover part of the procedure. A comprehensive consultation with Dr. Mesbahi will help determine the most appropriate treatment plan.
