Eyelid Surgery
Following problems of lids can be treated:
-
Loose or sagging skin that creates folds or hides the natural contour of the upper eyelid
-
Excess skin hanging and hampering vision.
-
Excess fatty deposits that appear as puffiness in the upper eyelids
-
Bags under the eyes
-
Excess skin and fine wrinkles of the lower eyelid
Procedural steps: This surgery usually done under local anaesthesia and patient can go home on same day.
An incision is given within the natural crease of the eyelid. This will allows access to remove excess skin, muscle and underlying fatty tissue. Using an incision inside the lower eyelid, fat is removed or redistributed and muscle modified to correct a baggy lower eyelid. After proper measurements the excess skin can be excised, if necessary.
After surgery: Redness (Bruising ) subside in 5-10 days and swelling should subside in 2-4 weeks. Final results may appear in 1-2 months. Incision lines will continue to refine and fade for 1 year.Cold fermentation immediate after surgery can be given to reduce swelling.
