Upper eyelid surgery: effectiveness and simplified aftercare
Blepharoplasty is eye rejuvenation surgery. The indications relate to the upper eyelid, but also to the lower eyelid. It does not concern the eye and its function, but only the skin and fat.
Upper blepharoplasty : the surgeon removes the excess skin, without excess correction. The surgeon removes excess skin and then places stitches inside the skin. These points are barely visible, they allow a healing in 8 days.
I had the chance to learn this surgery with the tool laser. This allows cutting without bleeding and without edema. This allows faster recovery than conventional technique, of course we can also carry out these operations according to the conventional technique.
Note that the experience of the surgeon is important in eyelid surgery. Thus, the drawing must be precise, but above all well positioned. The quantity to be removed is assessed on a case by case basis. This is a so-called “operator-dependent” operation.. Indeed, know-how and experience are paramount in the success of this surgery. Likewise, this technicality makes it possible to avoid complications of blepharoplasty.
Lower blepharoplasty: benefit of the conjunctival route without scarring
This is a surgery where it is generally necessary to remove the fatty pocket.
Here again, without excess, this intervention is carried out via the conjunctival route. That is to say, there is no visible scar on the outside. This also avoids the main complication of this procedure. Complication, never encountered in more than 20 years of practice, which is the round eye.
Indeed, we must respect the skin at the lower part of the eyelid. Thanks to the laser incision, the scar is inside the eyelid and we can address the excess fatty pocket which is often triple.
It is then possible to resect the card, to cancel the bulging effect at the level of the eyelid. In some cases, it is possible to redrape the skin by removing a very superficial area of skin.
Upper blepharoplasty: an easily beautified look...
Why trust an expert?
Your look is rejuvenated and beautified without distortion. Thanks to local anesthesia, you don't feel anything!
The technology used helps reduce edema and bruising. Your convalescence is more discreet, the return to work faster.
The upper blepharoplasty procedure:
First, Dr. Smarrito will analyze your eyelids during a consultation. He will take advantage of this discussion to analyze the entire look.
Consultation coupled with many years of experience counts enormously in determining the best therapeutic plan.
It should be noted that this procedure is carried out using local anesthesia without pain. Depending on the case, a laser or a scalpel will be used to reduce the thermal impact of the operation and thus the edema. A suture hidden in the skin is made.
Blepharoplasty, how to have a breathtaking result…
The virtuosity of the gesture counts enormously when it comes to blepharoplasty. Any surgeon can perform blepharoplasty. Only an excellent cosmetic surgeon will be able to give you a breathtaking result. The amount of fat to be removed from the lower pockets. Exclusive know-how in the treatment of dark circles.
The size of the scar, its position, its length... everything matters! In blepharoplasty, everything is a matter of detail.
With more than 4 blepharoplasties performed per week, Doctor Smarrito will be keen to have a superb, discreet and anatomy-friendly result.
Lower blepharoplasty: fewer bags, fewer dark circles to look less tired.
A more complex but effective eyelid and bag surgery
To look less tired, Doctor Smarrito will offer you combined surgery.
The procedure used combines several operating stages. It is thus possible to restore a look without greasy pockets or dark circles. The result is often incredible, looking rejuvenated and less tired.
The lower blepharoplasty procedure:
Together we will analyze the appearance of your lower eyelids. Often the demand comes from the pockets, but the structures around it can help restore the appearance.
It should be noted that this procedure is classically performed under general anesthesia. Lower pocket surgery is done by laser, with less bruising and edema post-operatively.
Blepharoplasty, hollow circles, dark circles around the eye
We have developed a patented method for the treatment of dark circles. We can thus combine it with the removal of pockets of fat. Stem cells can also help restore skin quality around the eye.

Blepharoplasty: different surgical outcomes.
The surgical aftermath is generally very simple.
Eyelid surgery usually requires one week of recovery. The threads will be slightly visible, we remove them after 8-10 days. For edema around the surgical area, a few days allow for recovery. An often breathtaking result is then obtained after a few weeks.
Stoppage of work and convalescence
Very often, a few days of convalescence are enough. With simple sunglasses, the look is discreet. It is possible to work, use a computer screen, telework. You have to stop exercising for 15 days.

Rejuvenate the entire look: fat reinjection and blepharoplasty
Reinjection of micro-fat, nanofat or stem cells…
Associated with this gesture, for many years plastic or oculoplastic surgeons have associated a fat reinjection (lipofilling and micro-lipofilling) to compensate for volume.
In fact, the entire face atrophies due to fat loss. It is also the main cause of aging. This concept does not escape the eye. So during the procedure, I also take fat which is autologous (from the patient), which is a major advantage. This fat is then reinjected into the hollow areas.
It is either the nanofat technique, that is to say a fat which has been liquefied. The desired effect is close to that obtained by injections of stem cells which regenerate the skin. This technique is also used for hollow or pigmented dark circles.
Or, by microfat lipofilling, that is to say a very fine and liquid fat which allows the area to be filled without overloading it.
Or, by a classic lipofilling which will generally be more suitable for contours outside the eyelid area, such as the cheekbones or temples to restore shape to an area that has sagging.
We thus understand that eyelid surgery is now a specialist surgery, I have the chance to perform numerous interventions as part of my surgical activity on this subject, which allows me to have a global vision of the area.
