FACS

WHAT IS BLEPHAROPLASTY?

Blepharoplasty, more commonly known as eyelid surgery, is a
sought-after facial cosmetic procedure designed to improve the
function and aesthetic appearance of the eyes. According to the 2019
Plastic Surgery Statistics Report, nearly 300,000 people chose eyelid
surgery to enhance their overall appearance.

As a top Houston plastic surgeon, Dr. Schusterman specializes in
personalized eyelid procedures that address both upper and lower
eyelids. His goal is to deliver the best blepharoplasty Houston has to
offer, tailored to each patient's unique needs.

WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR BLEPHAROPLASTY?

As aging occurs, skin naturally loses elasticity, causing eyelids to
droop and excess skin to collect on upper and lower eyelids. Potential
candidates for blepharoplasty may experience:

 	* Drooping eyelids that obstruct vision
	* Excess skin hanging over eyelashes
	* Unwanted bulges on lower eyelids
	* Frequent eye infections
	* Difficulty with eye makeup application

THE BLEPHAROPLASTY PROCEDURE

The procedure begins with a comprehensive vision exam and photographic
documentation. During surgery, Dr. Schusterman carefully removes
excess eyelid skin to create a more refreshed and youthful appearance.
While the skin is not technically "lifted", the removal of excess
tissue can produce a rejuvenating effect.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Blepharoplasty is an outpatient procedure with a manageable recovery
process. Patients can expect:

 	* Temporary puffiness and swelling
	* Light sensitivity
	* Numbness in eyelids
	* Potential bruising

Most patients feel comfortable returning to normal activities within
7-10 days. Approximately 50% of swelling subsides within one week,
with 80-90% resolution by two months.

COST CONSIDERATIONS

The average cost of blepharoplasty ranges from $2,000 to $5,000,
depending on the complexity of the procedure and specific patient
requirements. While pricing varies, Dr. Schusterman emphasizes the
importance of choosing a board-certified surgeon to ensure optimal
results and patient safety.

BLEPHAROPLASTY HOUSTON, TX | CHRISTOPHER K. PATRONELLA, MD

UNDERSTANDING EYELID SURGERY IN HOUSTON

Aging can cause significant changes to the eyelids, resulting in
drooping skin, puffiness, and a tired appearance. Blepharoplasty, or
eyelid surgery, is a specialized procedure designed to address these
concerns by removing excess skin and fat deposits, creating a
smoother, more youthful eye contour.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR BLEPHAROPLASTY

Patients considering blepharoplasty may want to achieve one or more of
the following goals:

 	* Remove bags and puffiness around the lower eyelids
	* Restore a refreshed and rejuvenated eye appearance
	* Correct vision impairment caused by sagging upper eyelids
	* Eliminate wrinkles on upper and lower eyelids
	* Improve self-confidence and facial aesthetics

BLEPHAROPLASTY PROCEDURE DETAILS

Performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia,
blepharoplasty typically takes one to two hours. Dr. Patronella
carefully makes incisions in the natural creases of the upper eyelids
and just beneath the lower lash line to minimize visible scarring.
During the surgery, excess skin and fat are precisely removed, and
underlying muscles are tightened to create a more youthful appearance.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Most patients can return to work within five to seven days following
the procedure. Initial swelling and bruising are common but typically
subside quickly. Patients can expect long-lasting results that
significantly enhance their facial appearance and potentially improve
peripheral vision.

COMBINING PROCEDURES

Blepharoplasty can be effectively combined with other facial
rejuvenation procedures, including:

 	* Brow lift surgery
	* True Form Facelift®
	* Rhinoplasty
	* Neck lift
	* Liposuction

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

As men and women enter their 40s, eyelid elasticity naturally
decreases. The supporting muscles weaken, causing excess fat to

	* Potential visual impairment

Botox or fillers, blepharoplasty is most effective for individuals
experiencing significant eyelid changes. Patients typically consider
this procedure when they notice persistent puffiness, excess skin, or
vision interference.

CONSULTATION PROCESS

involving detailed medical history review, physical examination, and
personalized treatment planning. Surgeons will assess vision, eyelid
structure, and discuss individual aesthetic goals.

SURGICAL PROCEDURE DETAILS

The blepharoplasty procedure is an outpatient surgery performed under
intravenous medication to ensure patient comfort. Surgeons make
precise incisions to remove or reposition excess tissue, with
techniques tailored to upper and lower eyelid requirements.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Patients can expect a recovery period of 5-7 days, with initial
results becoming apparent within one to two months. Most individuals
experience improved vision and a more youthful, alert appearance
following the procedure.

EYELID SURGERY (BLEPHAROPLASTY) IN HOUSTON

UNDERSTANDING BLEPHAROPLASTY: COMPREHENSIVE EYELID REJUVENATION

Blepharoplasty is a specialized surgical procedure designed to address
aging and cosmetic concerns around the eyes. Texas Liposuction
Specialty Clinic offers three primary eyelid lift options tailored to
individual patient needs.

UPPER EYELID LIFT (UPPER BLEPHAROPLASTY)

As individuals age, upper eyelid skin can become loose and begin to
droop, creating a tired appearance and potentially impairing vision.
The upper blepharoplasty procedure carefully removes excess skin and
muscle through an inconspicuous incision in the natural eyelid crease,
resulting in a more youthful and refreshed look.

LOWER EYELID LIFT (LOWER BLEPHAROPLASTY)

Lower eyelid surgery addresses puffiness, dark circles, and bagginess
that can make patients appear exhausted. By strategically placing
incisions along the lower eyelid's natural crease, the procedure
removes excess skin and repositions tissue to create a more
rejuvenated appearance.

COMPREHENSIVE EYELID REJUVENATION TECHNIQUES

For patients seeking complete eye area transformation, a combined
upper and lower blepharoplasty offers comprehensive rejuvenation. The
