Advantages of an Eyelid Specialist in Performing Eye Bag Removal Surgery

A 33-year-old female has had puffy eyes since she was 24 and thinks they make her look tired and old. She wants the best solution for her situation. Dr. Amiya Prasad, a cosmetic oculofacial plastic surgeon for over 20 years in Manhattan and Long Island, says that this is the most common procedure that he performs in his practice. He explains that the under eye bags are caused by lower eyelid fat prolapse. This is a herniation of fat that is normally behind the eye that pushes forward and creates these bags. It’s generally a genetic trait and tends to run in families. He has operated on 3 generations in the same family and certainly he has recognized this very strong hereditary factor. As someone who’s in their 30s, Dr. Prasad generally feels that she doesn’t have extra skin. This is a very important distinction because a lot of people will go to a general plastic or non-specialized plastic surgeon whose approach to the eyelid is always to do an incision from the lashes or an external approach called a transcutaneous blepharoplasty. Very often, they’ll remove skin causing the eyelids to pull down. Dr. Prasad’s approach would be a transconjunctival blepharoplasty where he addresses the fat pockets without interfering with the skin, muscle and the structure. He explains that the lower eyelid is deceptively complex. There’s a balance in the lateral canthal tendon, a structure called the septum, and other parts that are very important in the lower eyelid position. He has seen patients from all over the world whose eyes got pulled down and rounded from complications of lower eyelid surgery. In addition, Dr. Prasad also addresses skin quality with modalities such as radiofrequency and laser such as erbium or fractional CO2 laser. This will also help any concern about wrinkles and the perception that there’s too much skin when there really isn’t. He adds that it is important to distinguish quality of skin from quantity of skin. He also uses platelet-rich plasma (PRP) which is derived from the patient’s own blood. It’s a concentration of the healing growth factors that improve the under eye skin significantly at the time of surgery. Since eyelid skin is only a half a millimeter thick, a surgeon can’t really put a filler under there. He addresses fine lines and wrinkles with a laser and uses platelet-rich plasma for rejuvenation of the skin. He also uses platelet-rich plasma in the rest of the face and other parts of the body. Dr. Prasad does these procedures under local anesthesia with LITE™ IV sedation. This means that the patient is relaxed with medication through a vein like a liquid valium. It helps the patient not feel anything and be comfortable during this procedure. The procedure takes under an hour to perform. Dr. Prasad suggests that she meet with cosmetic surgeons and learn about their personal style and how they approach the lower eyelid bags. Once she meets with the doctor, she must look at their experience, their results, and get a sense of who they are. She must make sure their personalities are in sync and that she can really put trust in the doctor who’s going to do her surgery.
