Blepharoplasty Differs from Face and Body Lifts

-Blepharoplasty is performed against the influence of heredity than against the effect of gravity on the eyelids. The main cause of bulging and sagging eyelids is not so much of gravitational forces but it is due to loss of tissue elasticity. That comes into your genes and expresses itself during forties. The blepharoplasty is to restore sagging and bulging eyelids to its normal contour.

- Tissue placed under the tension scar will regularly stretch, an attribute that makes many reconstructive operations possible. A well done blepharoplasty should not place tissues under some tension scars while a face lift does indeed place tissues under them. One of the main causes of re-occurrence is thus avoided.

-Once the hereditary problems have been reserved through blepharoplasty, they show much less tendency to recurrence than the changes primarily by the gravity. The chances of deficiency due to gravity to re-express themselves are more than hereditary problems.

-The fat of eyelids does not regain back even with the weight gain. It is also possible to add socket fat into the eyelids eventually to work its way forward and more improvement. This will never reaccumulate to the extent that degrades the popularity of blepharoplasty. Many people experience the opposite effect- that is gradual loss of fat with age.

- Blepharoplasty cost is much less than full face lift and body lift. The results from blepharoplasty are much near to your expectations rather than full face lift and body lift. Blepharoplasty recovery takes much less time than the full face lift.
