  • Welcome to our channel, where we share real stories of cosmetic transformations! Join us as we unveil the fantastic results of Gretchen's upper blepharoplasty, an eyelid surgery that has taken years off her appearance. In this video, Gretchen provides an update on her journey just three weeks after the procedure.
    Upper blepharoplasty is a highly effective surgical technique that addresses concerns such as redundant skin and musculature in the upper eyelids. As we age, the upper eyelid and brow complex change, causing a feeling of heaviness. This procedure helps correct those issues, providing a more youthful and refreshed look.
    Witness the remarkable impact of Gretchen's eyelid surgery as she shares her experience and reveals her stunning results. The effects of blepharoplasty are long-lasting, with results lasting between 10 to 20 years for upper eyelid surgery and essentially permanent for lower eyelid surgery.
    During this video, you'll learn about the benefits of an upper eyelid lift, including the tightening of the skin, reduction of wrinkles and puffiness, and overall rejuvenation. We'll also discuss the minimal scarring associated with this procedure and provide tips on how to care for the scars to ensure optimal healing.
    Gretchen's recovery has been swift and relatively painless, showcasing the efficiency of this cosmetic procedure. Dr. Jon Mendelsohn, a renowned facial plastic surgeon based in Cincinnati, guided Gretchen through her transformation, utilizing the most advanced techniques in upper eyelid surgery. His expertise and skill have helped countless patients achieve a more youthful and refreshed appearance.

      We highly recommend starting with thorough research on the internet to understand the procedure and your options. Ideally, seeking a facial plastic surgeon who specializes exclusively in facial procedures can significantly enhance the likelihood of achieving fantastic results.

    ❤Patient look absolutely gorgeous. She mentions she feels the surgery took off about 10 years, I have to say that from the before clip to her 1 month, easily 20 years younger. Very beautiful. Im consulting soon for a laster assisted upper blethroplasty, I hope to see results in terms of the scalpel vs the route of laser

    • @drjonmendelsohn
      @drjonmendelsohn  Před 4 měsíci

      Upper blepharoplasty can wonderfully contribute to a more youthful and refreshed appearance, often making patients look years younger. Personally, I consider this procedure among the best for achieving a natural and rejuvenated look. Regarding the choice between laser and scalpel, we've employed both methods, and I don't believe one is inherently superior. While the heat from the laser may slightly affect the skin's edges, it doesn't seem to impact the final outcome significantly.
      When using lasers around the eyelid region, it's common to use a corneal shield, similar to a contact lens, to protect the eye. However, the process of placing and removing this shield can potentially cause a corneal abrasion. Although it's not a major concern, it's an additional consideration that we don't have to manage when a scalpel is used for the incision.
      Nevertheless, in the hands of a skilled facial plastic surgeon, blepharoplasty can deliver fantastic results. Best of luck with your procedure-I'm confident you'll be thrilled with the outcome. Thanks for sharing your experience!

      Upper blepharoplasty, commonly referred to as upper eyelid surgery, stands as a paramount option in the realm of cosmetic procedures, particularly for rejuvenating one's youthful aesthetic. Administered under local anesthesia in a concise timeframe of fewer than 30 minutes, the outcomes achieved are nothing short of remarkable and exhibit considerable longevity.
      It's important to recognize that the benefits of upper eyelid surgery extend beyond age-related concerns. This procedure is not exclusively reserved for individuals of a certain age; rather, it holds relevance for a diverse range of individuals who may be genetically predisposed to eyelid hooding, characterized by excessive skin accumulation. Your insights on this matter are greatly appreciated.
