Description
This 60-year-old man was bothered for many years by his undereye bags, feeling they made him appear older and more tired. Facial plastic surgeon Dr. Inessa Fishman treated him with lower blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery, followed by CO2 laser resurfacing to tighten the under eye skin. The treatment took just one and a half hours in the operating room, but the results are huge. He is extremely happy with his outcome and is looking forward to seeing how it progresses.
About Blepharoplasty / Eyelid Surgery Procedure
Some individuals may have excess fat (“eye bags”) and skin at their upper and lower eyelids due to genetics or the aging process. Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a form of surgical facial rejuvenation that helps patients reduce the appearance of aging by removing and repositioning excess skin, muscle and fat from the eyelids. Eyelid surgery helps patients enjoy a more youthful, alert appearance with a relatively minor treatment. Our facial plastic surgeon Dr. Inessa Fishman commonly performs eyelid surgery as a standalone procedure, or in combination with rhinoplasty or facelift surgery.
