Many of our male patients approach us with the following cosmetic concerns: chronic under-eye circles, bagginess or puffiness, and aging around the eye area. An eyelid surgery for men in Spokane, performed by Dr. Kai Morimoto at KM Plastic Surgery, could help to fix all these issues. Dr. Morimoto can help you restore your upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both to give you a revitalized appearance.
At KM Plastic Surgery, we specialize in plastic surgery for men to give our patients a more rejuvenated and youthful appearance. Schedule a consultation today to discover how eyelid surgery could be right for you.
In men and women, the eyelids are typically one of the first regions of the face to show signs of aging. This is due to the thin, delicate skin in this area. As early as the late twenties, but usually by the time one reaches their mid-thirties, signs of aging can develop on the upper and lower eyelids.
The upper eyelids can develop hanging, sagging skin, while the lower eyelids develop fatty bags. Chronic dark circles can also develop, progressively creating a tired appearance that can worsen over time. Blepharoplasty, or the medical name for eyelid surgery, can effectively and permanently correct these cosmetic changes for Spokane men to help them achieve a reawakened, youthful appearance.
Here are some considerations you should be aware of to be an ideal candidate for eyelid surgery. You should be in good physical health, without any serious ophthalmological conditions. Most male patients seek eyelid surgery at our Spokane office due to cosmetic concerns around the eyes, including crow’s feet, wrinkles and fine lines, sagging, drooping eye skin, chronic puffiness, chronic under-eye bags, or dark circles. These concerns can make them look permanently tired or aged.
Many patients are concerned about sagging or drooping eye skin and tissue that impacts their vision. If your eyelids are impacting your vision or if their cosmetic appearance is impacting your self-esteem, eyelid surgery may be the right procedure for you.
Dr. Morimoto will cleverly conceal any scars by performing incisions along your natural eye creases where possible. Depending on your needs, we specialize in eyelid surgery on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. During your initial consultation, Dr. Morimoto will work with you to discover which procedures are best for you.
Typically, the eyelid surgery procedure for men takes a few hours at the Spokane office, and it is administered with conscious sedation. The upper eyelid and lower eyelid surgical procedures are similar but differ in treatment location. During the upper eyelid surgery, our plastic surgeon will make an incision along the upper eyelid’s natural crease to remove excess skin and fat. The incision will be made directly below the eyelashes during lower eyelid surgery. In both cases, the fatty tissue and muscles around the eyes may be removed or reshaped to enhance the cosmetic appearance of the eyes.
We will thoroughly prepare you on the post-operative directions in our Spokane office and give you the guidance you need to help you recover optimally from your eyelid surgery for men. Most patients’ total recovery time is two weeks.
For your recovery, you will be given special cold compresses, eye drops, and medication to manage any discomfort. Typically, you can resume light exercise one week after your procedure. After two weeks, you will be cleared to go back to work and resume vigorous and strenuous physical activity. If you wear contact lenses, you may have to wait at least two weeks after your procedure before wearing them again.
If you are experiencing signs of aging, crow’s feet, fine lines, wrinkles, under-eye bags, puffiness, or hooded eyelids, your eyelid surgery with our team of talented medical specialists may be the answer you are looking for. We specialize in treating male patients, ensuring that results are always masculine-looking.
