Eyelid and Brow Lifts in Beverly Hills
One of the many changes people notice
as they grow older is a downward shifting of the brow and
fullness of the upper eyelid skin. Often, we notice swelling
of the eyelids in the morning which seems to take progressively
longer to disappear as we age. Wrinkling and sagging of
eyelid skin may be accompanied by bagginess of the lower
eyelids and at the inner corners of the upper lids. This
tendency often becomes apparent between 35 and 40 years
of age, becoming even more obvious in the forties and fifties.
The results of eyelid surgery are often
quite dramatic. Blepharoplasty involves the eyelid structures
and surrounding tissues. Surgical incisions are placed in
a way that they will be barely visible after several months
have elapsed. Excess skin and overstretched muscle fibers
are removed from the upper lids along with protruding fatty
tissue. The same correction is applied to lower eyelids;
however, great attention is paid to the elimination of excess
skin without producing undue tension on the lid margin.
Often, this procedure is done in conjunction
with a face lift. And, like the face lift, the blepharoplasty
can be performed under local or general anesthesia on an
outpatient as is with admittance and discharge on the same
day as surgery.
Sometimes the plastic surgeon may recommend
that a brow lift be perfomed in conjunction with a blepharoplasty.
The brow lift, which is designed to raise sagging brows,
is done through an incision in the scalp where scars will
be hidden in the hair. By elevating the eyebrows to thier
former youthful position, little excess skin may need to
be removed from the upper eyelids. In fact, in many instances,
the appearance of excess skin on the upper eyelids is an
illustion created by the sagging brows. This procedure also
serves to reduce forehead wrinkles.
This operation is perfomed most often
under local anesthesia on an outpatient basis.
