Blepharoplasty on Women of Color Without Cutting to Prevent Scarring- Who Can Do It?

Chicao has a surgeon who can do blepharoplasty without cutting on women of color (Dr. Julius Few). He goes in thru the lower eye lid. Is there an east coast plastic surgeon who does the procedure this way?

A: Scars

The lower eyelids can have the fat removed with no scars on the outside. If you have upper eyelid skin excess, you need external scars. I have done many women and men of color and never gotten a bad scar on the eyelids.

A: Non-incisional belparhoplasty You are speaking of a transconjunctival blepharoplasty in which the incision is inside the eyelid. The procedure is routinely performed by plastic surgeons and I do not think you will have difficulty finding someone in your area to perform it. If you are concerned about scarring from surgery, you could consider Restylane to fill in the tear troughs but it is impossible to comment on its efficacy without a photo.

Eyes are Very Different 1 Week After Double Eyelid Surgery, Should I be Worried?

I am 9 days post op double eye surgery. One eye is more swollen and much more small. Surgeon says it's all fine and not to worry. She said I became very stressed during the surgery and they had to switch me to a general and cortorise the beeding in one of my eyes. My eye looks so different from the other and I am really panicking!

A: Difference in post-bleph swelling

It's very common for patients to swell more on one side than on the other so, at this point in the healing, it would not be grounds for concern.  If your surgeon needed to cauterize more bleeders on the side that is swollen, that would certainly be a logical explanation for the additional swelling.  There is no reason to panic at this stage in the healing.  Just be patient and give things a chance to settle down!
