Overview of Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)

‘Get rid of wrinkles, bags, dark circles, and excess skin for a younger, refreshed look.’

Are you interested in Blepharoplasty (eyelid lift)? Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that corrects the appearance of aging eyes. The procedure can be performed on the upper or the lower eyelids.

Reasons for Upper lid Blepharoplasty:

Excess skin and wrinkled lid skin (making you look older)
Excess skin (making it difficult to apply eye makeup, or difficult to see in the upper visual field)
Excess fat (causing a puffy appearance)

Reasons for Lower lid Blepharoplasty:

Excess fat (causing lower lid ‘bags’)
Lower lid dark circles
Lower lid wrinkles

Although the aesthetic goals for the upper and lower lid Blepharoplasty are similar, they are two very different procedures. Upper Blepharoplasty is generally straightforward, while lower lid Blepharoplasty can be one of the most technically demanding operations. Choose a surgeon who is experienced and very comfortable with all aspects of Blepharoplasty. Toronto plastic surgeon Dr. Lawrence Tong will guide you through the process of making your decision.

Overview of Brow Lift / Endoscopic Forehead Lift

‘Lift drooped brows, smooth forehead lines, and restore brow arch aesthetics for a naturally youthful appearance’

As we age, the face droops, and so does the forehead and brow region. These aging effects lead to the common signs of an aging brow.

You may benefit from a brow lift if you have any of the following complaints:

Multiple horizontal wrinkles in the forehead
Eyebrows that have drooped with age
Eyebrows that sit low, causing the appearance of excess skin over the eyelids
Eyebrows that are flat or sloped outwards instead of arched
Multiple vertical wrinkles between the eyebrows

The brow lift can help correct the signs of an aging brow and forehead. The endoscopic approach is an advanced method of brow lift that allows for minimal incisions and risks as compared to the traditional (coronal) brow lift. Dr. Tong is experienced and very comfortable with all aspects of brow and forehead rejuvenation. Learn more about Endoscopic Brow Lift in Toronto.

Overview of Lateral Brow Lift (Mini Brow Lift)

The corrugator muscles make the wrinkles between your eyebrows when you frown. They are located directly in the deep to the medial (inner) eyebrows. When they contract, they create the vertical wrinkle lines; these lines become heavier and more pronounced as we age.

It is a relatively straightforward and quick procedure. Learn more about Corrugator Removal in Toronto.
