Eyelid Surgery
Our eyes have a huge impact on our external appearance; they can make us look and feel young and joyful, or tired and old. We’d like our physical reflections to represent the youthful vision of ourselves that we have in our minds, as well as express the vibrant manner we still feel.
Unfortunately, the eyes are often the first to show signs of ageing, due to the very thin and delicate skin that surrounds it. Years of neglected skin care, sun exposure, and rough make-up application can contribute to the eventual wrinkling and sagging skin around the eye area, though most of it is largely due to the natural ageing process. In fact, the simple act of blinking our eyes causes minuscule stretching of the elastic fibers in the skin around the eyes, as well as the fibers in the levator muscle, which is responsible for raising the eyelid.

Uper Eyelid Surgery
This is a 40 year old Caucasian female who had spent a lot of time in her twenties in the sun. As a teacher she was noticing that she was having difficulty keeping her eyes open while working and noticed that lifting the skin off of her eyes resulted in her feeling relief. She also felt frustrated with applying makeup to the eye area since this extra skin caused it to smear. Dr. Prasad performed cosmetic upper eyelid blepharoplasty, which revealed the natural shape of her eyes and further allowed her to apply cosmetics as she wished.
Dr. Prasad’s Blepharoplasty Technique – The SmartLift™ Eyelift
Motivated by the desire to perform more effective eye surgeries, Dr. Prasad developed a technique for blepharoplasty surgery that he calls the SmartLift™ Eyelift. This particular technique is designed to make use of a minimal incision method, alongside Dr. Prasad’s LITE™ Anesthesia sedation method, in order to achieve maximal, natural-looking results with minimal risk. Because of this approach, the downtime after the procedure is significantly shorter than that of blepharoplasty surgery performed under general anesthesia.
General anesthesia is known to have more attendant risks than local anesthesia. There is a tendency for the patient to suffer from nausea after the procedure, and recovery is known to take much longer. And while, having a patient under general anesthesia may be more convenient for the surgeon, it may represent a greater burden to the patient, thus the SmartLift™ Eyelift approach is certainly a safer option.
