EYELID SURGERY (BLEPHAROPLASTY) IN OLD BRIDGE, NJ

UNDERSTANDING BLEPHAROPLASTY: ADVANCED EYELID REJUVENATION

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a precise surgical procedure
designed to remove excess skin and fat from the eyelids. The technique
creates a more refreshed and youthful appearance by improving the
aesthetic of the eyes and surrounding facial features.

PROCEDURE BENEFITS

 	* Creates a more youthful eye appearance
	* Removes redundant eyelid skin
	* Reduces visual obstruction from heavy eyelids
	* Can be combined with additional facial procedures

UPPER VS. LOWER EYELID TECHNIQUES

UPPER EYELID BLEPHAROPLASTY

During upper eyelid surgery, surgeons make an incision within the
natural eyelid crease. Excess skin and potentially underlying muscle
or fat are removed to create a more defined and refreshed eye contour.
The procedure can be performed under local anesthesia in an office or
procedural setting.

LOWER EYELID BLEPHAROPLASTY

Lower eyelid surgery typically involves removing or redistributing
excess skin and fat. Surgeons may utilize external or internal
incision techniques depending on the patient's specific anatomical
requirements. This procedure is generally performed under general
anesthesia in an operating room.

CANDIDACY AND CONSIDERATIONS

Ideal candidates for blepharoplasty include individuals with:

 	* Excess upper or lower eyelid skin
	* Minimal medical complications
	* Realistic aesthetic expectations
	* Non-smokers or those willing to quit before and after surgery

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Patients can anticipate mild discomfort during the initial recovery
period, typically lasting 1-2 weeks. Most individuals can resume
routine activities within this timeframe. Scarring is usually minimal
and strategically placed to remain inconspicuous.

NONSURGICAL ALTERNATIVES

For patients with mild cosmetic concerns, non-invasive options like
laser resurfacing, chemical peels, or Ultherapy might provide subtle
improvements. However, surgical blepharoplasty remains the most
effective method for comprehensive eyelid rejuvenation.

EYELID SURGERY (BLEPHAROPLASTY) IN OLD BRIDGE, NJ

WHAT IS BLEPHAROPLASTY?

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a surgical procedure designed to
remove excess skin and fat from the eyelids. This transformative
technique creates a more refreshed and youthful appearance by
improving the aesthetic of the eyes and face.

BENEFITS OF BLEPHAROPLASTY

 	* Creates a more youthful eye appearance
	* Removes excess skin and fat from upper and lower eyelids
	* Can be combined with other facial cosmetic procedures

CANDIDACY FOR EYELID SURGERY

Ideal candidates for blepharoplasty have excess skin or fat in the
eyelids that creates an undesirable appearance. However, certain
medical conditions may impact surgical eligibility, including:

 	* Diabetes
	* Heart disease
	* Lung disease
	* Dry eye conditions

SURGICAL TECHNIQUES

UPPER EYELID BLEPHAROPLASTY

Upper eyelid surgery involves an incision on the eyelid to remove
excess skin. Depending on individual needs, underlying muscle or fat
may also be addressed. The procedure can be performed under local
anesthesia in an office or operating room setting.

LOWER EYELID BLEPHAROPLASTY

Lower eyelid surgery typically involves removing excess skin and
potentially redistributing fat. Surgical techniques may include
external or internal incisions, with procedures generally performed
under general anesthesia.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Patients can expect some initial discomfort during the first 1-2 weeks
post-surgery. Swelling and bruising are normal and typically subside
within a few weeks. Most patients resume routine activities within 1-2
weeks after the procedure.

SCARRING CONSIDERATIONS

External incisions are strategically placed to minimize visible
scarring. In most cases, surgical scars are discrete and heal in a way
that is difficult to appreciate.

NON-SURGICAL ALTERNATIVES

For mild cases, non-surgical options like laser resurfacing, chemical
peels, or Ultherapy might provide skin tightening. However, surgical
blepharoplasty remains the most effective method for significant eye
area rejuvenation.
