Are you tired of looking tired? Do coworkers believe you moonlight as a drummer for a rock band? If that’s the case, you might need to examine your eyes carefully. Your face and in particular your eyes can’t help but be exposed throughout the day, and elements like the sun can take their toll. Dr. Adil Ladak has seen and reversed the effects of the “tired look” with eyelid surgery, a cosmetic surgical procedure.
In a previous blog, we mentioned the top five plastic surgery procedures performed in 2014, and number three on that list was eyelid surgery, clinically known as blepharoplasty. One of the most effective ways to reverse the signs of ageing is to restore youthful aspects to the face. The blepharoplasty focuses solely on the upper or lower eyelids. That “tired” look is often due to loose skin, puffiness and wrinkles around the eyes that give the face an overall saggy and aged appearance. With the skilled hands of board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Adil Ladak, eyelid surgery can successfully remove the puffiness and loose skin around the eyes. As is the case with most plastic surgery procedures, there is a short recovery period. Patient care remains Dr. Ladak’s top priority both before and after a procedure. He will prescribe any necessary medication to minimalize discomfort.
It’s also important to note that for some prospective patients, the cause of puffiness around the eyes can be due to genetics along with ageing, in which case, blepharoplasty can be highly effective in taking years off your face.
