Eye lid surgery|Laser surgeries

Laser surgeries

The eyes play an important role in communication.  They reflect emotions such as anger, fear, coyness, and happiness.  Literary characters are frequently described in terms of their eyes.  Yet, it is only the tissue around the eyes that is responsible for their dynamic expressions.  The eyes themselves relay no message.

The skin around the eyes changes with age.  It loses elasticity, becoming loose and redundant; the muscles around the eyes become slack; and excess fat in the pockets above and below the eyes become prominent.  Cyclical edema or water in the tissue occurs with menstruation and certain sleep patterns..

Eye lid surgery and the aging of the eyelids is largely determined b a genetic predisposition to the noted changes and by the amount of sun exposure received over time. 

The eyelids are also affected by gravity and muscle pull, such as habitual squinting. 

Allergies, cardiac problems, as well as thyroid and renal disorders can also be responsible for eyelid changes inBlepharoplasty therapy.

Laser surgeries - A surgical procedure called a blepharoplasty or eyelid plasty is commonly used to correct baggy eyelids.  It is effective in removing excess skin and fat over the upper and lower eyelids and tightening up lax muscles around the eyes.

Who is a candidate for eyelid surgery?

Eye lid surgery and Careful evaluation and medical examination is critical in ensuring a satisfactory result.

A good candidate for eyelid surgery is a person with baggy eyelids due to excess fat, redundant skin, lax muscles around the eyes, ad someone who has reasonable expectations inBlepharoplasty therapy.

Blepharoplasties will not be performed in the case of abnormal tear production (dry eyes), protruding eyes due to thyroid disease, not other eye problems if surgery might endanger the eye or its vision in Blepharoplasty therapy.

Patients with high blood pressure, bleeding problems, glaucoma and diabetes mellitus are at risk for prolonged healing, bleeding during and after surgery and infection, therefore they are not good candidates for the surgery.  Smokers are also not good candidates because their circulation is poor which results in a slow healing time and coughing after surgery may cause a blood vessel to burst which in turn could result in impaired vision.  

Bags which form at the junction of the lower eyelids and upper part of the cheeks are medically referred to as malar bags.  These bags are due to chronic swelling not muscle weakness or excessive fat accumulation and will not be improved by a blepharoplasty.  Malar bags may be excised directly during eyelid surgery, but are treated by laser surfacing.

Blepharoplasty also cannot correct or alter deep, dark circles under the eyes, cyclical edema, allergies, crow’s feet and fine wrinkles around the eyes.  Other types of intervention are required to deal with these problems.  Medicated creams, collagen implants, laser resurfacing and chemical peels, all discussed previously, are alternatives for reducing wrinkles round the eyes.

Some surgeons divide the muscular ring around the eyes to help eliminate crow’s feet while performing a blepharoplasty.  This procedure, however, may weaken the eye muscles.  A more promising alternative is the injection of botulinum toxin (Botox) into the muscles on the outside of the eyes to temporarily immobilize them so the crow’s feet become less obvious.  Another alternative is removal with laser resurfacing. 

What takes place in a blepharoplasty?

            The Steps in Facial Surgery chart also apply to blepharoplasties.  When a facelift is combined with upper and lower eyelid surgery, the upper eyelids are corrected first.  The surgeon will remove the appropriate amount of excess skin and fat, leaving symmetrical eyelids with inconspicuous incisions and well defined eyelid creases.

Upper Eyelid:  The following are the steps taken to improve the upper eyelid (the procedure usually takes about one hour from start or finish):    

  • A surgical plan is drawn on the eyelids.
  • A local anesthetic is administered.  In most cases an intravenous sedation to relax the patient is used in conjunction with local anesthetic.
  • An incision is made with either a scalpel or carbon dioxide laser.  The CO2 laser seals the blood vessels and nerve endings as it cuts so there is less bleeding during the procedure.  If a scalpel is used bleeding is controlled with electrocautery.
  • First the excess skin is removed which exposes the underlying muscle.
  • A strip of muscle 5 to 8 millimeters (1/8 to ¼ inches) wide is removed to create a deeper eyelid crease.
  • Removal of the muscle exposes 2 fat pads.  Excess fat is carefully removed.
The incision is closed with absorbable sutures or if absorbable sutures are not used the stitches are removed in 3 to 5 days
