“Facial rejuvenation surgery”.<\/p>\n\tAging eyelids due to age occurs by the loss of skin elasticity and fat accumulation with two consequences resulting:
\nSad looking appearance, due to the fall of upper eyelid skin above your natural crease, especially on the lateral side.
\nAppearance of tired face, by relaxing the lower periorbital skin with visible wrinkles and appearance of puffines in the lower eyelid fat.\n
A blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure performed on the eyelids (upper\/lower). Is the most common facial rejuvenation surgery made by Dr. Cabrera with a great experience. For upper eyelids, Dr. Cabrera uses a technique that achieves an outcome very natural, avoiding the appearance of operated eye. For lower eyelids, Dr. Cabrera uses transconjuntival blefaroplasty (internal approach), in order to avoid the possibe complications of lower eyelid scarring, so as not to leave visible scars.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tOther procedures\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tFAQS\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBlepharoplasty before and after pictures\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\tHOW DO I KNOW IF I AM A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR A BLEPHAROPLASTY (EYELID SURGERY)?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t The best way to decide if you are a good candidate for a blepharoplasty or not is to look in the mirror.
