Endoscopic Brow Lift
Blepharoplasty
Eyelid Surgery
Blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery, as performed by the Manhattan
Plastic Surgeon can enhance your appearance and your
self-confidence by eliminating droopy or sagging eyelids. As
people age the eyelid stretches, muscles weaken, and fat
accumulates around the eyes, causing "bags", or excess skin to
become prominent. During your consultation with NYC Plastic
Surgeon he will assess which of the four eyelids (top and bottom
for both eyes) require the procedure.
The best candidates for eyelid surgery are men and women who are
physically healthy, psychologically stable, and realistic in
their expectations. Generally patients for this procedure are 35
years or older. However, if sagging eyelids run in your family,
it may be advisable to have eyelid surgery at a younger age.
Traditional eyelid surgery is commonly performed by the
Manhattan Plastic Surgeon to improve drooping upper eyelids and
remove puffy bags of the lower lids. These characteristics often
make people look tired, unenthusiastic and appear older than
their age.
The traditional eyelid surgery procedure is the second most
common aesthetic surgery performed today on men and women,
according to the American Society of Plastic and Reconstructive
Surgeons. While it does a good job at addressing the problems
described above, there are other cosmetic concerns, such as
crow's feet around the eyes which are not necessarily corrected
with traditional eyelid surgery. Laser skin resurfacing in
combination with BOTOX® ® injections around the eyes can be done
in combination with eyelid surgery.
There are variations of the eyelid surgery operation including
transconjunctival eyelid surgery, laser resurfacing eyelid
surgery, and lower eyelid resuspension surgery. The NYC Plastic
Surgeon will discuss all these options with you.
Brow Lift
Frown lines above the nose and in the middle of the forehead
will produce an unwanted older appearance. As a result of stress
and age, we tend to make expressions that promote creases,
resulting in a serious, unhappy, aged appearance. A brow lift
eliminates these lines and will improve your appearance. A brow
lift is one of the only procedures that allows the Manhattan
Plastic Surgeon to access the hard to reach muscles that cause
forehead furrows.
A browlift is a procedure that restores a more youthful,
refreshed look to the area above the eyes. The browlift
procedure corrects drooping brows and improves the horizontal
lines and furrows that can make a person appear angry, sad or
tired.
A browlift combats the signs of aging by diminishing frown lines
and raising naturally low or "heavy" brows. Brow lift surgery
works by elevating muscles and tissues that cause the brow to
droop, creating a smoother looking forehead.
An incision behind the hairline allows the browlift surgeon to
minimize visible scarring. The surgeon then elevates the skin
and muscle of the forehead, using an endoscope (small camera) to
visualize important structures. Aside from scarring, there are a
few other side effects that could result from brow lift
surgery.. Browlift complications are extremely rare.
The brow lift surgery procedure is performed the the Manhattan,
New York Plstic Surgeon's fully accredited surgical facility in
Manhattan.
