Cosmetic Eyelid Surgery

Cosmetic concern:  73-year old woman who feels that she can’t see her eyes any more.  She is interested in cosmetic eyelid surgery to improve her appearance.

Diagnosis: Dermatochlasis of the upper eyelids and eyebrow ptosis.  She has heavy wrinkling around the eyes and in the crowsfeet areas.  The lower eyelids demonstrate herniated orbital fat.

Treatment: Upper and lower cosmetic eyelid surgery.  The lower eyelid surgery was performed from behind the eyelid avoiding a skin scar.  She has achieved her goals with a significant improvement.  Her down time lasted about 10 days.
