History: This 60-year-old patient came to us with concerns regarding her aging face and a "tired" appearance, and was also bothered by lines in her eye area.
Treatment: Laser resurfacing to the eye area helped to diminish the wrinkles in those regions. Lower eyelid surgery reduced the fullness beneath her eyes.
Aesthetic eyelid surgery is performed on adults of all ages. Some people have eyelid surgery to correct problems that are a result of aging, while others have inherited traits that cause them to seek treatment as early as their 20s or 30s. Laser skin resurfacing has greatly enhanced the aesthetic plastic surgeon's ability to rejuvenate the upper and lower eyelid areas, plus the difficult-to-treat "crow's-feet" wrinkles. Many patients have laser treatments without undergoing any additional surgical procedures at the same time and are happy with the results. Laser treatments are also frequently done in conjunction with eyelid surgery to further smooth the lids. Often the most dramatic improvement in crow's-feet wrinkles can be achieved by a combination of laser resurfacing and a brow lift.
