How to avoid terrible blepharoplasty/ eyelid scars. How to get the very best scars...

Ғылым және технология

How do I get the best result from my eyelid surgery?
With virtually invisible scars Vs visible scars?
Firstly, what's our objective?
Our objective with eyelid surgery is to open up the eyes refreshed your appearance reduce puffiness bags, but really we want those scars to be virtually invisible. And unlike many areas of the face and body that is really possible with eyelid surgery because the skin is unique is very, very thin, which means that if the scars are well done, that can be virtually invisible.
What are the different options to close the skin and why is that important? And this includes different types of stitches, different types of glue, and so I'll talk to you about those.
The design of the scar is very important, common aspects of healing of the scars, revision of the scars and then I'll show you some of my my personal case studies case cases where we can look at the scars and in my personal tips.
This video will discuss all aspects of scars around the eyelids.
How to avoid terrible blepharoplasty/ eyelid scars. How to get the very best scars... I cover:
1. What is our goal: Virtually invisible eyelid/ aka blepharoplasty scars
2. Options to Close skin: Stitches, Dis-solvable stitches, Glue

    I had upper blepharoplasty not too long ago and the surgeon didn't take enough skin off so now it has to be redone. He had used dissolvable sutures and you can see the tracks while my neighbour had hers done with regular sutures and the results were much better. This video helped clarify my concern so I will be requesting non-dissolvable sutures. Thank you.

    You should be scared about eyelid surgery scars. My scar is still raised from the upper eyelid surgery and it has been 15 years!!! My doctor's office said to just keep pushing the skin against the bone under the eyelid scar and they never told me how long to hold it against the bone or how hard to press it with my finger. It has been so frustrating and I try to hide it with eye shadow but then the line still shows even worse. I'm about ready to use a fibroblast pen to the lines.

    This was well presented and informative. I had upper Bleph 2 days ago and can clearly see my ocular plastic was meticulous. After watching your video I went back to my 10x mirror and saw exactly what you’re talking about hiding the scar. He used radio frequency which as I understand is more precise, less bleeding, promotes collagen and has less scaring. I know my results will be fabulous! Thank you for this educational video from New Jersey USA!

    The best way to get better results with no adverse complications is consulting an Ophthalmologist specialized in Ophtalmic Plastic (Oculoplastic) Surgery. General Plastic Surgeons should not be allowed to do this surgery.

    I had upper bleth a few days ago. I am extremely concerned. The surgeon came before the surgery and placed a marker dot above my eyebrows and was told the marking will take place in the surgery room- well- this was not done so "I' could see it too- and not sure it was done at all. After- looking at the stitching- it was totally different, then I realized there were 2 surgeons?? each had an eye to work on. I called and left a message for the doctor to call back. She never did. I was told it would take 1-2 hrs. it took less than a half hour. Stitches on one eye (surgeon I selected)are virtually invisible- stitching on other (unknown surgeon)looks like stitching on a baseball. Also- I can't get stitches out for 2 weeks. Should I be concerned?

    @Cobalt Dancer Long story short- each eye is shaped differently now. Both need to be corrected. Dissolvable stitches were put in which I specifically asked NOT to use. When I asked about it, Doc said it does NOT make any difference whatsoever with scars. The other surgeon was a practicing surgeon. I am livid about not being asked first- I would have said no. These are my EYES!! My follow up , all my concerns were discussed. Although I fought off the tears during the appt. they just flowed. I'm quite upset about the treatment all the way around. I felt like I was just part of the assembly line -The outer corners of my eyes totally different , one angles upwards the other downwards. Although this was just to remove extra skin from lids for vision, I did not for a second think it would disfigure the natural shape of my eyes. Very disappointed with the work. I now have to get a brow lift for one eyebrow- just to correct and even out the shape. ugh. At my expense.
