blepharoplasty

blepharoplasty has evolved within the last 5 years. there are surgeons who still remove excessive skin and fat leaving patient's with hollow eyes and high eyelid creases, devoid of wrinkles, but lacking a youthful appearance.

dr. shah's approach is to remove an exacting amount of skin and fat and recreate a youthful eyes. in some patients, he will restore volume in order to help create a youthful appearance. his approach to the eyes looks at patient's pictures of their youth and attempts to create an eye which fits each patient's own characteristics. this approach has helped create a natural, individualistic approach to upper eyelid blepharoplasty.

lower eyelid blepharoplasty involves creating a smooth contour from the lower eyelid to the cheek. again, in dr. shah's opinion, excessive removal of eyelid fat is detrimental to creating a youthful appearance in all patients. an individualized removal and sometimes additon of fat can create a natural eye contour.

preservation of lower eyelid tone and function is an important aspect of lower eyelid rejuvenation. dr. shah utilizes a specialized technique to preserve lower eyelid position and maintain lower eyelid function and tonicity. DR. SHAH'S PRACTICE IS LOCATED IN CHICAGO ILLINOIS.
