Introduction
Image-conscious men in the New York and New Jersey area choose male eyelid surgery to restore a vibrant, energized facial expression and regain their confidence in social and professional settings. If you’re unhappy with signs of aging in the upper or lower eyelids, such as skin laxity, puffiness, wrinkles, under-eye bags, or fat accumulation, you may be an ideal candidate for blepharoplasty with Dr. Pathak in Purchase, NY, a double-board-certified plastic surgeon known for his natural-looking outcomes and commitment to safety.
As the body’s reserves of youth-enhancing compounds such as collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid gradually diminish with age, drooping skin, volume loss, wrinkles, and lines often emerge, making patients look older than they feel. Dr. Pathak in the Westchester County, NY, and Greenwich, CT, area performs upper and lower eyelid surgery to rejuvenate your look and elevate your overall quality of life.
Upper eyelid surgery tackles loose, sagging skin that can occasionally interfere with your field of vision. The underlying muscles are firmed, and excess fat and tissue are removed to create a more alert, inviting expression.
Lower eyelid surgery is ideal for addressing under-eye bags, fat buildup, and puffiness. This procedure is considered scarless because incisions are placed along the lower lash line or within the lower eyelids.
To qualify for male eyelid surgery in the New York and New Jersey area, you should be a healthy non-smoker who is not currently dealing with any uncontrolled eye problems or medical issues. You should have realistic, grounded expectations for your outcome, based on an initial consultation with Dr. Pathak and his team of skilled aesthetic experts. Many men in Purchase choose eyelid surgery to look more refreshed and enjoy greater confidence and self-esteem. Some may be frustrated by low-hanging upper eyelid skin that reduces their field of vision, compromising their overall quality of life.
Dr. Pathak is a meticulously detailed, precision-minded surgeon who goes above and beyond to rejuvenate your appearance using cutting-edge techniques. Benefits of male eyelid surgery in Purchase include:
To get started with your procedure, you will first attend an introductory consultation with Dr. Pathak in the New York and Tri-State area. This initial visit is dedicated to exploring your goals, addressing all of your questions and concerns, and completing a medical and physical assessment. Dr. Pathak will also go over the risks, benefits, downtime, and costs associated with male eyelid surgery, making sure you have a clear picture of what to expect. Please note that those suffering from thyroid problems, dry eye, glaucoma, or other medical concerns may not be suitable candidates for the treatment. Once Dr. Pathak clears you for surgery, we will set your procedure date and provide customized instructions on how to best prepare for surgery.
Your male eyelid surgery is performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation at our world-class facility in Purchase. Once you are asleep, Dr. Pathak will carry out your strategic treatment plan, restoring a vital, energetic facial expression.
With upper blepharoplasty, incisions are placed within the fine folds of the upper lids, allowing for inconspicuous scarring. Dr. Pathak will tighten the underlying muscles and remove excess tissue and skin to create a more inviting, youthful appearance.
With lower eyelid surgery, your incisions will be made inside the lower eyelids or within the lower lash line, making for a virtually “scarless” procedure. Through these incisions, Dr. Pathak will remove excess skin, tissue, and fat, helping reduce puffiness and under-eye bags.
Your Guide to Post-Male Eyelid Surgery Care
By carefully following Dr. Pathak’s aftercare instructions, you can ensure a seamless, rapid healing process. Make sure to stay well hydrated, get plenty of rest, eat a nutritious diet, and avoid harmful UV rays.
After surgery, you may experience your vision being slightly blurry due to the ointment Dr. Pathak places on the incisions. Other side effects may include swelling, bruising, tenderness, watery eyes, and temporary sensitivity to light. You will have access to oral pain medications to help alleviate any discomfort. A cold compress can be used on the eyes for the first 24 hours post-op.
Make sure to sleep and rest with your head slightly elevated, as this can help to minimize swelling. For a month or two, you will need to avoid strenuous activities. Don’t wear contact lenses for several weeks.
