 Eyelid
surgery can dramatically restore a more youthful, rested, and
naturally alert appearance. Cosmetic eyelid surgery involves
the removal of loose skin folds and bagginess, and can be performed
on the upper and lower eyelids. While eyelid surgery is useful
for removing excess tissue, laser skin resurfacing tightens
and rejuvenates damaged skin. In this procedure, a high energy
beam of light is applied to the skin, vaporizing unwanted tissue
and smoothing surface indentations in quick, intense bursts. Laser
skin resurfacing can even be used after eyelid surgery or a
facelift to eliminate remaining lines. In each case, the number
and duration of laser skin resurfacing sessions varies depending
on the specific condition being treated.
Treatable
conditions with laser skin resurfacing include
- Facial lines and wrinkles due to aging
- Crows feet at the corner of the eyes
- Lines and wrinkles under the eyes
- Laugh or "frown" creases
- Lines and wrinkles around the mouth
- Scars from acne, chicken pox, trauma or some surgeries
When
excess skin or lid droop is enough to constrict vision, there
may be a medical indication for repair. This is generally not
considered cosmetic, and medical insurance will usually
cover surgery under such circumstances. The improvement in appearance
and visual performance afterward is often remarkable.

We
are also pleased to offer the innovation of cosmetic and functional
radiofrequency eyelid surgery. This technique involves a no-pressure,
sterile incision performed with ultrahigh frequency radiowaves.
These radiofrequency waves produce minimal bruising as blood
vessels are sealed while tissue is incised. The result is
an efficient procedure with minimal recovery time.
