Why Eyelid Surgery?

We all know that eyes are the most sensitive parts of our body and they express more than the words we deliver. Most of the people think that sagging skin is common as per the growing age.

Candidates suitable for Eyelid Surgery:

The best candidate for eyelid surgery is the one who is in good health with the ideal weight. As we all know, the sagging skin below and above the eyelid is observed in people who are above 35years of age. There may be the chances of getting fat sooner around the eyes and is also suitable for the eyelid plastic surgery procedure if the person is in good health condition. Before the surgery, the surgeon will thoroughly go through the patient’s past medical history to check whether he/she is perfectly suitable for the best Eyelid Plastic Surgery in Chicago.

Before the Eyelid Surgery:

  • Dr. Dhaval Patel will suggest you to not intake any of the medications and supplements associated with internal bleeding. The surgeon will provide some medications that should only be consumed before the surgery.
  • Avoid smoking for weeks before the date of your surgery. Smoking reduces the ability of healing.
  • Express your expectations with the surgeon to achieve the same results after the surgery.

Options for Eyelid (Blepharoplasty) Surgery:

Blepharoplasty surgery comes with upper and lower eyelid surgery. In this process, the surgeon will go through the appearance of the patient’s eyes and decides whether to go for the upper, lower, or both. In some cases, we observe the sagging skin only above or below the eyelids.

  • Upper Eyelid Surgery:

In this process, the surgeon will make an incision above the eyelid and removes excess fat and skin. This process is derived to tighten the skin above the eyelid and restores the natural youthful appearance. In this procedure, the surgeon will also adjust the muscles to achieve more desired improvements. With this process, Brow lift surgery also helps to achieve the best results with excellent eye appearance, as well as, facial contour. CI Plastic Surgery is known for the best Brow Lift Cosmetic Surgery in Chicago.

  • Lower Eyelid Surgery:

In this cosmetic eyelid plastic surgery, the surgeon will make an incision below the eyelid to remove excess fat and skin and to reduce the sagging skin. As per the growth in age, we see people lose their skin elasticity above and below the eyes, face, neck, etc. But to get rid of the excess fat and skin, going for proper cosmetic surgeries is the best choice. Sometimes, there are also possibilities of losing skin elasticity at an early age reducing the skin appearance. To avoid that, it is very important to follow some regular diet and exercises from the very beginning to prevent aging symptoms. Being one of the Best Plastic Surgeons in Chicago, Dr. Dhaval Patel will propose some pre and post-operative measures to be followed to prevent future complications after the surgery.

  • Eyelid Surgery with other Procedures:

As Eyelid (Blepharoplasty) is the surgical procedure done to improve the youthful appearance, this procedure can also be done with other cosmetic plastic surgeries such as brow lift, facelift or both in common. This helps to achieve a more refined facial appearance. CI Plastic Surgery is also renowned as the best Face Lift Surgery in Chicago to remove excess skin and fat around the cheek, chin, and jawline.
