Eyelid Surgery in Louisville: Is It for Me?
No other facial feature says more about us than our eyes. Patients frequently complain that their eyes make them look tired or angry or simply too old. Blepharoplasty surgery rejuvenates the eyes by removing excess skin and fat, or “bags”, of the eyelids. This procedure is often coupled with face lift, forehead lift, and laser surgery. Some patients also consider rhinoplasty and/or chin augmentation in Louisville in order to enhance the harmony of their facial contours.
Goals of Surgery
The goal of Blepharoplasty surgery is to remove excess eyelid skin and fat to “open up” the eyes and restore your bright, vibrant and youthful appearance.
Where Does the Surgery Take Place?
Dr. Corbett performs this procedure in the Hospital Operating room.
Anesthesia
IV Sedation is sufficient for this surgery in some cases, in other General Anesthesia is preferable. This will be discussed at your consultation.

Recovery
Most patients are back to their normal routine within 5 to 7 days. As with most facial surgery, post operative swelling and bruising are to be expected. Specifics will be discussed at the time of your consultation.
Follow-Up
