Cosmetic Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)

What is Eyelid Surgery (blepharoplasty)?

The eyes account for a large part of your face’s expression. They project an array of emotions, including happiness, sorrow, and fear. The eyes themselves are virtually expressionless structures. It is the contour of the skin – the tissue, muscle, fat, hair and lashes around the eyes – that conveys expression. Wrinkles and deep lines, as well as puffiness on the lids, begin to develop with the passage of time. These physical changes can make you look old and tired, and produce anxiety and actual visual impairment.

Exposure to the sun and genetic predisposition can be contributing factors to sagging skin around the eyes. If you are experiencing these skin contour changes, you may be a good candidate for eyelid surgery. Today, several remarkable surgical techniques, including blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, have been developed to reduce many of these problems. The blepharoplasty procedure involves the removal of excess skin and fat on upper and lower eyelids and is often done in conjunction with other surgical procedures, including a facelift, eyebrow and forehead lift.

Cosmetic Eyelid Surgery - What To Expect
Before your eyelid surgery, your medical history and general health will be evaluated. A thorough examination of the eyes and face will be made to determine the most effective surgical approach. The amount, distribution, and type of excess skin to be removed is carefully noted. One of our doctors will discuss the procedure, what results might realistically be expected, and possible risks and complications. An examination by an ophthalmologist may be recommended. Antibiotics may be prescribed for a few days before eyelid surgery to prevent infection.
 
The eyelid surgery procedure can take from one to two hours depending upon the extent of the surgery. It is performed in our on-site surgery facility. It can be done under general anesthesia with the patient asleep, or under local anesthesia in which the area is numbed, and the patient remains awake. Before surgery, premedication to relax the patient is administered.
 
The doctor, following natural lines and creases, makes very fine incisions from the inner to the outer edge of the eyelid. On the upper eyelid, the incision made in the fold of the lid. On the lower eyelid, the incision is made directly below the eyelash or, in selected cases, inside the lid. Excess fat and skin are then removed from the underlying compartments. The amount of fat excised is determined by the degree of protrusion of fat when pressure is gently applied to the area. Small sutures are used to close the incision, and special ointments and dressings may be applied.

What You Need to Know

During the consultation, Dr. Marvel will examine your facial features, ask you questions about your medical history and evaluate your general physical condition. The result of this examination will determine procedures involved. For example, a Rhinoplasty involves the reshaping of the nose, while a facelift requires making an incision that follows the hairline.

Dr Noah performed my procedure. I am very impressed with the result. Dr Noah exceeded my expectations. I've never been this confident about myself before. I was nervous and anxious, but Dr Noah and Sandra always answered all my questions and were available when I had concerns. I am beyond happy and grateful to Dr Noah and the entire staff.

Can't say enough about Dr. Marvel and his amazing staff. He has done several procedures on me, and they are perfection. I have not had to take any pain pills, I didn't even bruise with my procedures. He is also extremely honest, if he doesn't think you need something done he will tell you that, which is unheard of these days. I highly recommend him

I’m two week post-op from a BBL and I love my results so far! My waistline is exactly how I envisioned. My bum looks awesome as well, can’t wait for final results. Dr Noah did my procedure, he’s a true artist and listened to my concerns. The nurses were wonderful and Maria does lymphatic massages, she’s been a huge help and gives great BBL advice. Thank you Dr Noah! Hazel Webster/Nashville

I couldn’t be happier with the results that I received from my surgery at Marvel Cosmetics. For years I’ve exercised and ate healthier in an effort to maintain my weight. I’ve always been on the heavier side. Fortunately, I was able to drop about 60lbs, but there was an excess of loose skin and muscle loss in my stomach that I couldn’t tone or tighten. I received a few consultations, but I didn’t feel that everything was right until after having a consultation with Dr. Alisha Jefferson. She’s personable, patient, and made me feel extremely comfortable. She performed a tummy tuck w/muscle repair and lipo on my back. Im currently 9 weeks post op…my recovery went well, the incision is perfect, and my overall results met my expectations.. Additionally, her team was great from beginning to end.
