About Eyelid Surgery in Montreal
Over time, eyelid skin can lose elasticity and start to sag. Excess or displaced fat can start to accumulate in the upper eyelids or beneath the eyes. Sagging upper eyelids or puffy lower eyelids can cause individuals to look like they are prematurely aging, exhausted or even depressed.
In addition, individuals of Asian descent or those with certain hereditary traits may experience droopy upper eyelids at a young age. Some Asian eyelid surgery patients remark that they have never had a definite crease in their upper eyelid, causing the perpetual appearance of a "single eyelid."
Fortunately, plastic surgery patients who are bothered by the appearance of saggy or swollen eyelids can greatly benefit from blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery or eyelid lift. With blepharoplasty, qualified eyelid surgeons can create eyelid definition or restore a relaxed, refreshed look to a patient's eyes.
What to Ask Your Montreal Eyelid Surgeon
Prospective eyelid surgery patients may wonder how to choose a facial plastic surgeon. Choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon is a good place to start. A plastic surgeon must meet rigorous criteria regarding surgical training and experience to earn board certification. Thus, board certification ensures that the cosmetic surgeon has received proper training and clinical experience in the field of plastic surgery.
Once the eyelid surgery patient has chosen a board-certified plastic surgeon, the patient should schedule a consultation. As part of the consultation process, patients should ask prospective eyelid surgeons the following questions:
- Are you certified by either the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, or the American Board of Plastic Surgery?
- Did you receive specific training in plastic surgery (as opposed to general surgery, dermatology, etc.)?
- How many years of plastic surgery training did you complete?
- Do you have hospital privileges for eyelid surgery? At which hospitals?
- Is the hospital or surgical facility accredited by a reputable source?
- Am I a suitable candidate for eyelid surgery?
- What can I do on my end to achieve optimal surgical results?
- What does the eyelid surgery process entail?
- Where will eyelid surgery be performed?
- What should I expect during recovery from eyelid surgery?
- What are the risks associated with eyelid surgery?
- When will results be visible, and are results permanent?
- May I look at before and after photos of your previous eyelid surgery patients, so I can get an idea of your patient satisfaction rate, as well as what I should expect my results to look like?
Additional Treatment Options
Experienced eyelid surgery Montreal providers may recommend a complementary cosmetic procedure to enhance the aesthetic results of blepharoplasty. For instance, by performing brow lift or traditional facelift in conjunction with eyelid surgery, talented facelift Montreal surgeons can restore a reinvigorated look to the entire face.
Montreal patients who wish to augment their eyelid surgery results with a non-surgical cosmetic treatment are also in luck. Sophisticated plastic surgeons in Montreal offer many advanced, minimally invasive cosmetic procedures, such as chemical peels, microdermabrasion, laser hair removal and laser skin resurfacing. They also provide injectable neurotoxin treatments, such as Botox and Dysport, and injectable fillers, such as Juvederm, Restylane, Sculptra and others, to revitalize the face without surgical downtime.
