Houston Plastic and Craniofacial Surgery Sets the Standards for Excellence in Blepharoplasty

(prHWY.com) April 24, 2012 - Houston, TX -- Blepharoplasty or eyelift is a popular plastic surgery procedure offering immediate and long-lasting results. Aging can cause excess skin and fat to appear on the upper and lower eyelids, causing them to droop. Drooping eyelids make people look older than they really are. Blepharoplasty can set this right. Dr. Sean Boutros of Houston Plastic and Craniofacial Surgery in Texas addresses the concerns of patients who wish to improve tired or heavy looking eyes with minimally invasive solutions. The surgeon is an expert in performing both upper eyelid and lower eyelid surgery. The lower blepharoplasty procedure involves:

* Removal of excess skin, muscle, and fat
* Repositioning of the corner of the eye or canthopexy
* Repositioning of the entire lower eyelid
* Repositioning of lateral tarsal strip eyelid

In the case of the upper eyelids, excess skin is removed along with the fatty tissue that causes puffiness. Frown lines can be improved upon considerably through upper eyelid surgery.

At Houston Plastic and Craniofacial Surgery center, eyelid surgery is usually performed as an outpatient procedure. Patients can resume normal activities within a few days. The center's surgical suite is located inside the office, allowing patients the convenience of one-on-one surgical care in the comfort of an office they are familiar with.
