EYELID SURGERY (BLEPHAROPLASTY) LITTLE ROCK, AZ | ZACHARY YOUNG, MD

UNDERSTANDING EYELID SURGERY

By the mid-thirties, aging can significantly impact the eye area.
Drooping upper eyelids, puffy lower lids, and excess skin can create a
tired appearance and potentially impair vision. Blepharoplasty offers
a precise surgical solution to restore a more youthful, rejuvenated
eye contour.

CONDITIONS ADDRESSED BY BLEPHAROPLASTY

 	* Loose or sagging upper eyelid skin
	* Fatty deposits creating eyelid puffiness
	* Bags under the eyes
	* Drooping lower eyelids
	* Vision obstruction from excess skin

SURGICAL APPROACH IN LITTLE ROCK

Arkansas Plastic Surgery's board-certified plastic surgeons perform
comprehensive eyelid surgery tailored to individual patient needs. The
procedure involves removing excess skin, fat, and potentially
repositioning muscles to create a natural, refreshed appearance.

PROCEDURE DETAILS

Eyelid surgery is an outpatient procedure performed under general
anesthesia. Surgeons make precise incisions in natural eyelid creases
or lower lid inner lining to minimize visible scarring. The entire
process typically takes 1-2 hours, with careful contouring of skin and
fat to achieve optimal results.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Patients can expect minimal downtime, with most returning to normal
activities within 2-3 weeks. Initial swelling subsides within a week,
revealing improved eye contours. Results can last up to 10 years,
providing a long-lasting rejuvenation of the eye area.

IDEAL CANDIDATES

The best candidates for blepharoplasty are healthy, non-smoking
individuals experiencing age-related changes around the eyes. Patients
should have realistic expectations and be willing to follow
post-operative care instructions.

INSURANCE AND CONSIDERATIONS

While typically considered a cosmetic procedure, insurance may cover
blepharoplasty if excess skin demonstrably impairs vision. Patients
are advised to consult with their insurance provider and undergo
visual field testing to determine potential coverage.

POTENTIAL RISKS

As with any surgical procedure, blepharoplasty carries minimal risks,
including temporary swelling, bruising, and potential vision changes.
Arkansas Plastic Surgery's experienced surgeons thoroughly discuss
these considerations during comprehensive consultations.

EYELID SURGERY (BLEPHAROPLASTY) LITTLE ROCK, AZ | WRIGHT PLASTIC
SURGERY: DR. ERIC WRIGHT

UNDERSTANDING EYELID SURGERY

The eyes are one of the first features people notice, and aging can
cause the eye area to look tired and worn. Blepharoplasty, or eyelid
surgery, offers a solution for patients experiencing sagging skin,
puffiness, and wrinkles around the eyes.

WHAT IS BLEPHAROPLASTY?

Eyelid surgery is a cosmetic procedure designed to improve the
appearance of the eye area by addressing various aesthetic concerns.
Dr. Eric Wright performs this procedure on both upper and lower
eyelids to help patients achieve a more youthful and refreshed look.

CONDITIONS TREATED BY EYELID SURGERY

 	* Loose, sagging skin drooping over the eye
	* Puffiness in the upper eyelids
	* Bags below the eyes
	* Sagging skin or hollowness beneath the eyes
	* Excess skin and wrinkles around the eyelids

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR BLEPHAROPLASTY

Wright Plastic Surgery evaluates patients for eyelid surgery based on
specific criteria. Ideal candidates are typically:

 	* In overall good health
	* Non-smokers
	* Experiencing vision obstruction due to drooping skin
	* Seeking to address excessive under-eye bags or lid wrinkling

THE BLEPHAROPLASTY PROCEDURE

Dr. Wright performs eyelid surgery as an outpatient procedure using
local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia. Incisions are
strategically placed in natural skin creases to minimize visible
scarring. The procedure involves removing excess skin, adjusting fatty
deposits, and smoothing wrinkles.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Patients can expect initial swelling and bruising that gradually
subsides within the first week. Sutures are typically removed after
5-7 days, with most patients returning to normal activities within two
weeks. Dr. Wright provides personalized post-operative instructions to
ensure optimal healing.

COMBINING PROCEDURES

Blepharoplasty can be effectively combined with other anti-aging
procedures like facelifts to provide comprehensive facial
rejuvenation. During the consultation, Dr. Wright will discuss
potential complementary treatments tailored to individual aesthetic
goals.
