Many people have an aspect of their appearance that bothers them. Some common ones are a bump on the nose or scars left over from acne. Other things may begin to become a concern as they age. Fine lines around the mouth and eyes, deeper lines and wrinkles on the forehead and age spots are common complaints. Another issue that can be a problem at any age, but often becomes more prominent as a person gets older, is the area around the eyes. Most of these problems can be taken care of with eyelid surgery in CT.
Many people are bothered by dark circles or bags under their eyes that leave the eyes looking hollow and tired. Others notice that the fold of skin above their eyes begin to droop. This can happen to both eyes, or just one. It leaves the eyes looking tired and can make it difficult to apply makeup for women. If the drooping skin on the upper eyelid becomes severe enough, it can even affect the ability to see correctly. Both the under the eye issue and the upper lid problem can be resolved quickly and easily with eyelid surgery in CT.
For the upper lid, the surgeon carefully removes a flap of extra skin from the upper lid. The very faint scar is placed in the natural fold of the eye, so it isn’t even noticed. This can open the eyes back up, leaving them looking more youthful and feeling less heavy. Under the eye, the surgeon can use fillers to plump up hollowed out areas, or remove pockets of fat that create the bags under the eyes many suffer with.
Another procedure Martin Cosmetic Surgery can do to help improve the appearance of the eyes is a brow lift. This can help to open up the heavy upper eyelid by gently lifting the entire brow back into place, as it was when the patient was younger. The slight scars for this are placed just inside the hairline where they are hardly noticeable.
Any of these procedures can be done quickly and safely by an experienced staff and surgeon in just a few hours. After a short time to heal, patients are left looking and feeling better about themselves than they have for years.
