Here are the 5 best techniques to rejuvenate the eyes

Dull gaze, under-eye bags, drooping eyebrows, and crow’s feet? These are some of the most common aesthetic concerns affecting one of the most expressive areas of the face: the eyes. Here’s how to address them with minimally invasive procedures that are almost painless, provide fast results, and deliver high satisfaction.

Want to know which ones? Here are the 5 best surgical techniques to rejuvenate the eyes and restore that expressiveness time may have hidden.

1. Upper blepharoplasty Corrects excess skin or fat in the upper eyelid. Performed in day-hospital in less than an hour, almost painless, with small stitches removed after 5 days. The scar, initially visible in the eyelid crease, becomes nearly invisible within a few days.
2. Lower blepharoplasty The most common technique to reduce crow’s feet and remove excess skin or fat from the lower orbital area. Outpatient procedure, minimally painful, with a small scar that fades within weeks.
3. Brow lift Used to lift the eyebrow and instantly rejuvenate the upper eyelid. Lasts about 40 minutes, performed under local or general anesthesia, painless, and leaves a small scar hidden in the hairline at the temples.
4. Canthopexy Corrects “downturned eyes” caused by aging. Outpatient, local anesthesia, about 20 minutes, painless. Often combined with upper or lower blepharoplasty.
5. Canthoplasty Performed to modify the shape of Western eyes, making them more almond-shaped, similar to Oriental eyes. Takes up to 30 minutes, under local anesthesia, painless, with a small lateral scar that becomes invisible in a few weeks. Often combined with blepharoplasty.
