SPANN SPECIFICS
Excess tissue, fat and skin around the eyes can make a person look old or tired, even when they feel refreshed and healthy. In some cases, this excess around the eyes may even interfere with vision. If you are bothered by the shape or volume of the tissue around your eyes, you might consider an Eyelid Lift procedure with Las Vegas plastic surgeon, Dr. Marvin Spann. Known as "Blepharoplasty", this surgery creates a more alert, open look to the eyes, reducing the bags below and the droopy, loose skin above. An eyelid lift can help you look years younger, because it reduces puffiness and baggy skin for a more youthful, alert look. Dr. Marvin Spann will discuss all of your options with you during your consultation; we look forward to seeing you soon!

REVIEWS

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

UPPER EYELID SURGERY

During upper eyelid surgery, an incision is made within the natural fold of the lid and extended outward. The incision will go out as wide as possible so that additional skin folds on the outside of the upper eye can also be addressed. Once the incision is made, excess skin, tissue and, in some cases, a small portion of the orbicularis oculi muscle are removed. The incision is closed with absorbable sutures and the scar remains almost completely hidden because of where it resides in the natural crease.

LOWER EYELID SURGERY<

During lower eyelid surgery, an incision is made along the bottom of the lash line. This allows the surgeon to remove excess fat and tissue. In patients who have puffy lower eyelids but good skin tone, an approach known as a transconjunctival Blepharoplasty can be performed. This technique puts the incision inside the lower eyelid rather than outside. Patients who have dark circles under their eyes will sometimes have a deficiency of fat in these areas. Injectables can be used to help fill these soft-tissue deficiencies and can improve the appearance of these circles.

DURING/AFTER SURGERY
Eyelid surgery is performed under general anesthesia as an outpatient procedure in an accredited surgical facility. It generally takes up to 2 hours for both the upper and lower eyelids to be addressed. Following surgery, the area around the eyes will be bruised and swollen. Patients should apply ice packs, keep their heads elevated, and apply medicated eye ointment for a few days. Patients comment on the fact that friends and family tell them they look great, but often can’t put a finger on what is different. These subtle, yet dramatic results restore a softer, more youthful appearance.

EXPECTED COST

The cost for eyelid surgery varies for each patient and will fluctuate depending on whether both the upper and lower eyelids were addressed. Patients who undergo a full Blepharoplasty, which includes both the upper and lower eyelids, will pay on average between $3,000-$6,000. In some patients where the upper eyelid skin obstructs the view, a portion of the surgery may be covered by medical insurance.

 Eyelid Surgery FAQS

VISIBLE SCARS?

After surgery, scarring will not be visible because of where the incisions are placed. In the upper eyelid, the incision follows the natural crease of the eye. The lower eyelid incision will run just under the eyelashes or inside the eyelid. Scarring will be inconspicuous.

CROW'S FEET?

Eyelid surgery will reduce puffy bags and excess skin and may help contribute to some minimization of crow’s feet. However, to truly treat crow’s feet, you will need a different approach. BOTOX® injections and procedures such as a Browlift, are better options to help eliminate crow’s feet.

IRRITATION AFTER SURGERY?

Some patients will experience dryness and minimal irritation following surgery. If these occur, we can recommend ointments and eye drops to assist during the healing phase. Patients should protect their eyes against wind and sun irritation for the first several months by wearing dark sunglasses.

VISION IMPROVEMENT?

If anything, eyelid surgery actually helps improve the vision for many patients. Not only does it restore a fresh, younger look from a cosmetic standpoint, it eliminates the excess skin that may have been impairing vision. It is important to select a skilled surgeon who has expertise with eyelid surgery. We take great care during this surgery so that the eyes themselves are left untouched and unharmed.
