Have You Fluttered Those Lashes Today?

With age come a profusion of side-effects, the foremost [and undoubtedly the worst for most women] of which is losing your beauty. The face droops, muscles sag, and haggard lines come into prominence. The eyes, which are the most expressive features of your face, too go through this aging process

Excess fat, skin and muscle combine to add a droopy effect to the upper eyelids; while the lower lids transform into baggy horrors.
Blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery solves these problems besides treating others like puffiness of upper eyelids, dark circles, etc. however, there maybe supplementary surgeries that your doctor may suggest if you want to achieve optimized results.

Patients having thyroid problems like Graves’ disease and hypothyroidism, dry eyes, cardiovascular disease or a detached retina have to think again before opting for an eyelid surgery. Additional consultation from an ophthalmologist is recommended in case of the latter condition.

Minor complications like blurred vision, swelling, irregularity in healing scars, etc. may occur. A condition known as ectropian is another rare result of
eyelid surgery which is known to cause a pulling down of the lower lids. In such a situation, further surgery may be in the cards for a patient.

The scars of a
blepharoplasty procedure have a pinkish hue, though after about six months they are known to fade into a thin translucent line which is barely visible. The recovery is complete and smooth and very satisfying, even more so if you have selected a capable doctor.

The
Plastic Surgery Institute of California has cosmetic surgeons who are aesthetic experts in every aspect of plastic surgery. We provide you careful advice and exclusive guidance to help you get eyes that don’t hesitate to widen with happiness.
