BLEPHAROPLASTY may be performed under local anesthesia with intravenous sedation or with general anesthesia. The incisions are designed to be concealed within the natural folds of the eyelids in order to keep the scars as invisible as possible. Excess fat, muscle, and loose skin are removed, with the procedure routinely taking approximately one hour to complete.

The first place one begins to show their age is in their eyes, “the windows of the soul.”

In 1961, two surgeons from Houston, Texas, working with the Dow Corning Corporation, developed the first silicone breast prosthesis.

PROCEDURES such as botox, laser hair removal, and injectable fillers can be painful but now they don’t have to be torture. There has been some significant advances in pain control for the cosmetic surgical patient and it is disheartening that some men and women who are interested in these and similar procedures may be too afraid of the pain to try them.
