MAKING THE DECISION FOR BLEPHAROPLASTY
During the presurgical consultation,
you will be examined and asked to answer questions concerning
vision, tear production, use of contact lenses and your
desires for surgery. Dr. Smith will explain what you
can expect from blepharoplasty and take a complete medical
history. Factors to be weighed include age, skin type,
ethnic background and degree of vision obstruction. Furthermore,
you can expect an open and honest exchange between you
and Dr. Smith, which will establish the basis for a successful
outcome.
After both you and Dr. Smith
make a mutual decision, the technique indicated for
your individual surgery will be discussed. The type
of anesthesia, any supportive surgery and the risks
and costs inherent in the procedure will be outlined.
