EYELID SURGERY (BLEPHAROPLASTY) IN PROSPECT, KY

Appearances play a significant role in our lives, and issues like
drooping eyelids and under-eye bags not only alter one's looks but can
also impede vision. This drives people to seek surgical solutions that
rejuvenate the eye area. At Julene B. Samuels, MD, FACS in Prospect,
KY, specialized blepharoplasty surgery enhances the youthful
appearance and clarity of your eyes.

WHAT IS BLEPHAROPLASTY?

 	* Upper Blepharoplasty can repair loose skin and puffiness in the
upper eyelid or herniated fat in the upper eyelid.
	* Lower Blepharoplasty can repair lines and bags in the lower eyelid,
deep hollows between the lower eyelid and upper cheek, and deep crow's
feet lines around the outer eyes.
	* Double Blepharoplasty enhances the look of both the upper and lower
eyelids through surgical refinement, targeting excess skin, fat, and
muscle around the eyes.

BENEFITS OF BLEPHAROPLASTY

IMPROVED FIELD OF VISION

Blepharoplasty can remove excess skin from the upper eyelids that may
hinder vision, thus broadening the visual field. This enhancement
improves both aesthetics and functional sight.

YOUTHFUL APPEARANCE

By addressing bags under the eyes and drooping eyelids, blepharoplasty
restores a youthful contour to the eye region. This change can make
the entire face look younger and more refreshed.

PATIENT CANDIDACY

Eyelid surgery may be performed on men and women of all ages who want
to improve their self-image. Ideal candidates include individuals with
loose skin, puffiness, under-eye bags, or deep hollows around the
eyes.

SURGICAL APPROACH

The procedure varies in time but averages one to three hours. It may
be performed under local anesthesia or IV sedation, with incisions
strategically placed in natural eyelid creases to minimize visible
scarring.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Most patients can return to normal activities within one to two weeks.
Bruising and swelling typically become less noticeable within 10-20
days. Early results are visible immediately, though complete healing
may take several months.

SURGERY/ALEXANDER DIGENIS, MD

UNDERSTANDING BLEPHAROPLASTY: COMPREHENSIVE EYELID REJUVENATION

Blepharoplasty, commonly known as an eyelid lift, is a sophisticated
surgical procedure designed to address cosmetic and functional
concerns surrounding the eyelids. This transformative technique can
correct loose, sagging skin, drooping upper lids, puffiness, and dark
circles that contribute to an aged or tired appearance.

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

During a blepharoplasty, Dr. Alexander Digenis carefully makes
strategic incisions along the natural lines and creases of the
eyelids. The procedure can target upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or
both, depending on the patient's specific aesthetic goals and
anatomical needs.

KEY BENEFITS OF EYELID SURGERY

 	* Removes excess skin and fat causing drooping or layered eyelids
	* Reduces puffiness and dark circles
	* Potentially improves peripheral vision
	* Creates a more youthful, refreshed appearance

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

Dr. Digenis performs blepharoplasty with meticulous precision.
Incisions are strategically placed in natural eyelid creases and may
extend into laugh lines or crow's feet. Through these carefully
planned incisions, excess fat and sagging muscle are precisely removed
and adjusted.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Patients can typically resume normal activities within one week.
Sutures are generally removed after seven days, and most individuals
can return to work at this point. Minor bruising can often be
concealed with makeup, and patients are advised to protect their
healing eyes from sunlight and environmental irritants.

BLEPHAROPLASTY LEXINGTON, KY | DR. STEPHEN A. SCHANTZ, MD

UNDERSTANDING BLEPHAROPLASTY

Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess fat
and skin along the upper or lower eyelids. Genetic factors and the
aging process can contribute to wrinkles, loose skin, and bulges
around the eye area. These fatty herniations typically originate from
the eye socket, creating pouches or bags in the upper and lower lids.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR EYELID SURGERY

 	* Individuals with excessive, sagging, or wrinkled upper or lower
eyelid skin
	* Patients with upper eyelid skin that interferes with vision
	* Those who have lost their natural upper eyelid crease
	* Patients with puffy fat pouches creating a tired or aged appearance

SURGICAL TECHNIQUES

UPPER EYELID SURGERY

During upper eyelid surgery, the surgeon carefully marks individual
lines and creases to ensure incisions remain as invisible as possible.
Excess fat and loose skin are removed, with fine sutures closing the
incision to minimize visibility.

LOWER EYELID SURGERY

For lower eyelid surgery, an inconspicuous incision is made along the
lash line and smile creases. Excess fat, muscle, and skin are trimmed
before carefully closing the incision with fine sutures.

EXPECTED PROCEDURE DETAILS

 	* Typical duration: One to two hours
	* Anesthesia: Local anesthesia with light intravenous sedation
	* Performed in a fully accredited surgical facility

POTENTIAL ENHANCEMENTS

To maximize results, blepharoplasty can be combined with complementary
procedures such as:

 	* Forehead lift
	* Facelift
	* Chemical peel
	* Laser skin resurfacing

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Patients can typically expect suture removal within 4-5 days. Bruising
and light sensitivity may persist for one to two weeks, with swelling
gradually diminishing over several weeks. Makeup and contact lenses
can usually be resumed shortly after healing begins.

POTENTIAL RISKS AND CONSIDERATIONS

While complications are rare when performed by a skilled plastic
surgeon, certain medical conditions may increase surgical risks.
Patients with thyroid disease, hypertension, or dry eyes should
discuss potential complications thoroughly during consultation.
