Face: Eyelid Lift and Brow Lift
Eyelid Lift (Blepharoplasty)
After more than 20 years of careful study of facial structures, Dr. Martini works from the simple idea that often the little procedures produce the biggest improvements. Eyelid surgery or blepharoplasty can be one of those procedures. As a board-certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon, Dr. Martini combines his experience and training with an artistic technique to create a more youthful upper and/or lower eye area by eliminating excess sagging skin, removing bulges of fat, and contouring irregularities. Equally important is the restoration of a youthful eyelid and crease. Dr. Martini uniquely combines fat grafting with his blepharoplasties for a comprehensive rejuvenation. "Think of it as 3-dimensional sculpting for a youthful look, not a tight or hollow look," says Dr. Martini. His technique and expertise bring patients from all over the area, with his talents being sought often by patients requiring revision of previous work performed elsewhere.
Dr. Martini's approach to facial surgeries is holistic, and during consultation, he will be able to assess your needs on an individual basis. Additional procedures to enhance the outcome of an eyelid surgery may be suggested. Based on a patient's anatomy and desired outcomes, Dr. Martini may suggest an alternate procedure altogether.
Brow Lift Surgery
Deep furrows on the forehead, frown lines over the eyes, drooping eyebrows, and excess skin over the eyes are all conditions that can make you look older than you are – or feel. Whether age or heredity causes these conditions, a forehead lift (or brow lift) can give you a more youthful and rested appearance. This condition is closely related to eyelid aging. As with eyelid rejuvenation, both men and women, seek this procedure in ever-increasing numbers.
A forehead lift, or brow lift, uses incisions hidden in the hairline to reposition eyebrows back to the proper position: at or above the brow bone. This procedure may also be used to smooth the furrows in the lower forehead as well as reduce the drooping skin above the eyes, and hooding on the sides of the eyes. Dr. Martini takes great effort to sculpt an eyebrow shape to fit your unique facial features and aesthetic expectations. As a result of the surgery, the eyes appear more open, more rested, and more youthful. The cheeks are also addressed, and can be restored to reverse the sagging or sunken look of aging.
"Sometimes it is more than just an eyelid lift. Frequently, patients may need a brow rejuvenation to maximize their results," Dr. Martini explains. "A patient might not even need a blepharoplasty. A bleph might be harmful if it's over aggressive, or used as a substitute for a brow lift. Sometimes a brow lift is more aesthetically pleasing and is what the patient actually needs. Other times, patients benefit from my quick recovery facelift because they really need the cheeks to support the lower lids."
