Eyelid Surgery Dallas

Patients of eyelid surgery in Dallas report the procedure known to surgeons as blepharoplasty is probably the easiest invasive plastic surgery procedure from which to recover -- as well as the one that makes the fastest difference in your face's appearance. The relatively low cost and minimal downtime of eyelid surgery in Dallas also makes it popular. About 225,000 people had eyelid surgery last year in the United States.

Eyelid Surgery in Dallas can help with that Sleepy and Haggard Look?

In many cases, patients complain their upper eyelids are starting to droop over the eyeballs. Sometimes, that obscures the person's vision but in all cases, it makes him or her look sleepy and haggard. Dallas eyelid surgery expert plastic surgery Benjamin Bassichis, M.D., when doing upper eyelid surgery, hides the incision within the natural folds of the eyelids and extends it slightly beyond the outside corner into the laugh lines or into other existing wrinkles. That's where excess skin and fatty tissue are removed; the incision follows the natural contour of the upper eyelid and is well camouflaged when healed. Eyelid surgery in Dallas usually lasts about ten years.

Eliminate Puffiness

For lower eyelid surgery, the incision is often hidden just below the lower lashes. Excess skin, muscle and fat are removed through that incision to eliminate puffiness, bags or bulges. As in upper cosmetic eyelid surgery, that incision is also well camouflaged by natural creases in the skin. Afterwards, you can usually go back to work in about a week.

Eyelid surgery experts in Dallas say you are a good candidate for blepharoplasty if you have:

  • No known conditions of the eye like glaucoma or detached retina.
  • No known medical conditions such as high blood pressure, circulatory problems, hypothyroidism or other thyroid related conditions.
