lasereyelidsurgeon.com : Eyelid surgery in Beverly Hills

(prHWY.com) March 2, 2013 - Beverly Hills, CA -- Eyelid surgery is a procedure that removes wrinkles from the upper and lower eyelid, which will result in a smoother appearance, a rejuvenated look. This procedure is also called â€žBlepharoplasty" and it can be done in a traditional way(knife) or with the laser. The last one is the more efficient one, because it is more safe and the swelling and bruising that can appear after the surgery is minimized. The laser prevents bleeding which plays a major part in eyelid surgery because it can accumulate around the eyes and cause pressure on it.

The problems that we normally experience in our eyes are two-fold.
There may be excess skin of the upper and lower eyelids. The extra skin of the upper eye lids can also be a result of sagging of your forehead and eyebrows. An eye brow lift must always be considered while you are evaluating the upper eyelids. It is also possible that there can be excess fat in your eyelids that may cause the eye lids to have a "loose" effect. Most of us live with complexes all our lives, instead of dealing with them and taking the matter into our own hands. If you like to feel good when you look into a mirror in the morning, this is the choice for you. If you have ever considered getting rid of that always tired look on your face, you have inherently considered laser eyelid surgery. The result of this sort of intervention is natural and crisp, giving the impression that the individual has somehow grown young once again.

Wrinkles appear in time from smoking, sun exposure or simply the aging process. With the laser, you can eliminate all of the damaged skin and let the body repair itself by bringing a new and more tight collagen that makes the skin smoother. This technique is developed by Beverly Hills eyelid surgeon, Dr. Warren Lent, and is the greatest way to remove the wrinkles and improve the skin quality. Laser eyelid surgery recovery will only take one week. A big problem in eyelid surgeries remains the anesthesia because patients prefer to remain awake during the operation. Side effects from total anesthesia can be prolonged lethargy, vomiting, sore throat, breathing difficulties, interferences with vital body functions and, the most important, death but in rare cases.

Nowadays, with the lasers ability to send less stimuli of pain towards the skin and the ability to stop bleeding the patient can stay awake during the entire eyelid surgery. The anesthesia can be done locally with no other complications and the patient can return to its daily routine and not suffer from the side effects which can take up to two days. Also with this type of anesthesia there will be no need for pain medication and is also cheaper than other alternatives.

Although there are patients that want full anesthesia and do not want to get awareness during the eyelid surgery and be conscious when the doctor starts to operate. Eyelid surgery has now become very safe with the new laser technology and the local anesthesia procedure. With the constant work of Dr. Warren Lent, this procedure will become even more safe.
