We cannot ignore that, as the years go by, our aging faces express unwanted emotions, such as fatigue or anger.
We see it especially in the periocular region, i.e., our eyes, eyebrows, eyelids and cheeks, where crow’s feet, dark spots, bags, and droopy eyelid skin remind us of the passage of time. These tell-tale signs of aging create an expression of fatigue in our faces.
Until a few years ago, the possibility of combatting these bothersome aging signs was limited to cosmetic surgery treatments that left nasty scars or a “done” appearance. These unnatural results produced, by old practices of aesthetic surgery, have given way to novel techniques that accomplish harmonious and rejuvenative outcomes.
“Natural results with few complications”is the new motto of facial plastic surgeons around the world. Oculofacial plastic surgeons in particular have developed new technologies and advanced surgical techniques that allow them to restore youthful facial features.
The trend toward natural results and minimally invasive procedures has revolutionized the art of aesthetic facial surgery. These procedures are performed on an outpatient basis, under local anesthesia and with a little downtime.
Among these procedures we find:
- Ptosis surgery: to correct droopy upper eyelids that cause eye fatigue and poor vision. It is performed under local anesthesia, with small sutures that remain on the eyelid skin for about a week.
- Blepharoplasty: To remove excess eyelid skin which cause a tired or worn-out appearance. This is also an outpatient procedure with a long-lasting result.

Most of our procedures are performed on an outpatient basis; that is, you can recover at home the same day of the operation, without requiring hospitalization. We use local anesthesia plus sedation in most of our surgeries; in some cases, we can do your procedure without sedation (for example, upper eyelid lift). The benefits of this type of sedation include: increased safety, less pain, and faster recovery.
