Male Eyelid Surgery

Address Sagging, Drooping Eyelids with a Blepharoplasty in NJ

The signs of aging often first become apparent around the eyes. Changes in the tissues that support supple skin may lead to drooping or heaviness in the upper eyelid. Wrinkles and sagging, combined with these problems, can make a man appear older, tired, and unhealthy. Eyelid surgery at the NJ-based Burnett Plastic Surgery can be ideal for men in the Westfield area who want to regain their youthful edge.

Eyelid surgery, technically known as blepharoplasty, can rejuvenate the entire face simply by removing excess skin and fat from highly visible areas. Dr. Carlos Burnett is an experienced plastic surgeon who recognizes the differences between the muscle tone, tissue, and facial anatomy of men and women. Though the intent of eyelid surgery is the same for all patients, the way the surgery is performed will differ for the male patient.

What Can Eyelid Surgery Do?

Some of the problems a blepharoplasty procedure can correct include under-eye darkness or puffiness, loose skin and wrinkles beneath and around the eyes, and sagging skin on the upper eyelids.

A comprehensive consultation with Dr. Burnett will help him to determine the most appropriate plan of action, including anesthesia as necessary. Once the patient is scheduled for surgery, Dr. Burnett will make skillfully concealed incisions along the natural crease of the eyelid, under the lower lashes, or inside the lower eyelid. These allow him access to tissues that need to be repositioned or removed, as well as give him the ability to excise excess skin if needed.

Results typically show within several weeks and are long-lasting. A healthy skin care routine will be recommended to protect the eyelid area and maintain positive results.

Who is an Ideal Candidate for Eyelid Surgery?

Many men aged 35 and older seek consultation with a reputable plastic surgeon for eyelid rejuvenation. This procedure can, however, be performed in select cases on younger men who are healthy and have no allergies or eye conditions that could stand in the way of optimal healing.

As with all cosmetic procedures, a full consultation and examination is performed prior to any decision on eyelid surgery. Realistic expectations are at the heart of satisfying results. Healthy, non-smoking individuals who do not have severe eye conditions are ideal candidates for this procedure.

Several techniques may be utilized in eyelid surgery. Dr. Burnett plans the procedure based on the findings of his initial examination. Considerations are made for the thickness of skin, as well as the patient's unique concerns the surgery is intended to address.

Eyelid surgery provides men with the avenue they need to feel better about their appearance. Age and several other factors, including sun exposure, combine to encourage signs of aging. If you want to gain control over your aging process and your competitive edge, eyelid surgery may be an essential element to your total health and wellness plan.

More Procedures for Men

Men who want to make changes to their face may also consider BOTOX® injections, which are nonsurgical treatments to smooth out forehead wrinkles and crow's feet for months at a time.
