Blepharoplasty: durability over time
Upper and lower blepharoplasty, by Dr. Gerbault:
- It is often asked whether the result of a blepharoplasty is durable over time. It depends on many factors related to the technique used as well as to the lifestyle of the patients and their genetics.
- This patient underwent upper and lower conjunctival blepharoplasty with fat spreading and lipofilling.
- The result at one year shows a natural embellishment of the look and the 5 years result shows the stability of the correction.
Blepharoplasty of the 4 eyelids with eyelid bags spreading and external canthopexy
Blepharoplasty of the 4 eyelids with eyelid bags spreading and external canthopexy, by Dr. Gerbault:
- Facial aging first affects the eye. Over time, fat bags may appear, the skin of the eyelids relaxes and becomes looser. The gaze sags and weighs down.
- A correction by upper and lower blepharoplasty combines several technical acts to be natural:
- Remove a little extra skin.
- Spread out the fat bags to fill the digging of tear troughs just below the eyebags.
- Tightening the eyelids by external canthopexy and muscle plasty.
- The result at just over 3 months shows the correction of heavy and tired eyelids without changing the look.
Blepharoplasty lipofilling dark circles
- Correcting dark circles is one of the most difficult things in aesthetic surgery.
- The new lipofilling technique with the lipopen allows to treat this frequent issue with great accuracy.
- During the lower eyelid blepharoplasty, microfat is harvested and injected with this electronic device to restore volumes in the lower eyelid and the cheek.
- A fat pad spreading through internal access in the lower eyelid and an endoscopic temporal facelifting have been performed at the same time.
- The result is shown at 6 months postop.
