Eyelid Lift Surgery
Blepharoplasty improves the appearance of upper eyelids, lower lids, or both. Furthermore, blepharoplasty corrects vision obstructions caused by sagging eyelid skin that blocks vision.
Eyelift East Lansing Surgeons place eyelid surgery incisions to conceal any scars within natural eyelid structures. Additionally, they place upper eyelid incisions within the natural eyelid crease. Moreover, surgeons typically place lower eyelid incisions just below the lower lash line. Through these fine incisions, specialists remove excess skin and tighten muscles. Furthermore, they reposition or remove excess fat (“bags”). Surgeons close eyelid incisions with sutures (tiny stitches) or special skin glue.
While patients experience very little pain after surgery, recovery includes swelling or bruising (“black eyes”). Additionally, most patients become presentable for public outings in 10-14 days. However, complete healing takes a few months.
Eyebrow Lift Surgery
Brow lift surgery, also called a forehead lift, reduces wrinkles and frown lines, and raises the eyebrows back to a higher and more youthful position.
Minimally-invasive brow lift surgery can be performed “endoscopically” by inserting a thin tube with a camera on the end, using tiny placed through very small incisions made within the hairline. The surgeon can adjust the tissue and muscle beneath the skin – correcting visible creases and furrows in the forehead – with very minimal scarring.
In other cases a brow lift is performed using a “coronal incision” – created from ear to ear across the top of the head in the hair on top of the head. Forehead skin is then lifted and pulled taught and muscle adjustments can be made. Although the scar is larger it is well concealed within the hair.
Depending on the surgical technique needed, the patient is given either intravenous sedation or general anesthesia. Recovery may take a week to 14 days.
