Blepharoplasty - all the things you want to ask

Today we talk about a form of plastic surgery is blepharoplasty.This operation is every day more and more attracted the attention of Russian men and women.

reconstructive plastic surgeon nominated by the European prize "Aurora", - Alexey Avdeev, answers the most frequently asked questions.

- Are there some simple techniques for facial rejuvenation?

- good techniques from the arsenal of hardware and laser cosmetology, various peels, masks and takzheinektsionnaya contouring.The next day, or in the case of laser in 3-5 days, the skin will shine.However, these procedures are applicable to slightly radical rejuvenation when the facial skin has lost elasticity, reduced elasticity and observe gravitational ptosis of soft tissues napodborodke, neck, eyelids and cheeks.In short, when the skin is "hung".In these cases, surgical correction is needed to raise the "fallen" tissues and restore youthful facial contours.Unfortunately, this requires a certain amount of sacrifice, because recovery time after such operations range from 2 to 4 weeks.

- And if this time there?Many residents of megacities are not even a week of free time, not to mention the four?

- Certainly, the development of modern surgery is moving towards minimally invasive procedures, reduce and recovery times.Such operations are possible, but are indicated for minor age-related changes when the skin can only "raise" and that will be enough.However, it is such small operations require a good enough hardware instrumentation and operating as if it did not sound snobbish, "virtuoso" skill of the surgeon.Then the rehabilitation period can be reduced to 5-7 days.

example, the patient comes to the omission of the eyelid skin and face, it is absolutely clear that for best results you need to do eyelid and face at the same time, but no time for this notorious rehabilitation.The work "does not release".Here in this case, and decide to do only blepharoplasty (eyelid) with a relatively short (5-7 days) recovery period, putting the plastic face up free time.

Experience shows that in such cases, after only one eyelid, people are so satisfied with the result overall facial rejuvenation that recalls the plastic face in a few years.

- How do you know when it's time to do a blepharoplasty?

- Women have a certain criterion is the time, when applying shadow on the eyelids, starts to interfere with a fold of skin on the upper eyelid.In general, all cosmetic surgery is classified desire surgery.There are cases where genetic or structural features of the national age want to fix both girls and young people in the 18-20 years.

- Are the scars after the surgery?If so, how they are visible to others?

- When the plastic upper eyelid incision is usually located on the upper edge of the plate of cartilage, which corresponds to a skin crease.Therefore, with eyes open scar is hidden in the anatomic crease between the eyebrows and eyelashes.Young people in the plastic lower eyelids, usually there is no need to dissect the lower eyelid skin and all kinds of manipulations to improve the lower eyelid can be done through an incision on the part of the mucous membrane.But even in older patients, the lower eyelid skin incision 4-7 days is almost imperceptible, as located directly below the eyelashes.
