Understanding Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty

Excessive upper eyelid skin results from reduced skin elasticity and changes in underlying eyelid structures. Patients often experience heaviness, difficulty applying makeup, and a constant need to raise their brow throughout the day.

Symptoms and Indications

  • Heavy upper eyelid sensation
  • Constant brow elevation
  • Makeup application challenges
  • Potential vision obstruction

Customized Treatment Approach

Gerson Zatezalo Skin and Face offers personalized blepharoplasty treatments that address individual anatomical variations. The procedure is designed to rejuvenate the eyelid while maintaining natural appearance and functionality.

Surgical Technique

Dr. Zatezalo performs upper eyelid blepharoplasty using a hidden lid crease incision, which prevents visible scarring. The procedure may involve excising excess skin, sculpting or repositioning fat, and potentially volumizing the upper eyelid for optimal results.

Procedure Details

  • Performed under local anesthesia or light sedation
  • Customized to individual facial anatomy
  • Addresses cosmetic and functional concerns

Potential Treatments

  • Laser skin resurfacing
  • Fat repositioning
  • Volumization techniques
  • Potential brow lift combination

Surgical Considerations

Successful blepharoplasty requires precise evaluation and technique. Improper assessment or incorrect incision placement can lead to suboptimal results. Dr. Zatezalo's expertise ensures a comprehensive approach to upper facial rejuvenation.

Had a great experience yesterday at this practice. From the warmth and friendliness of Ashley (truly appreciated her asking me if I would be more comfortable if she and Dr. Z would wear a mask), to the honesty, attentiveness, and affable nature of Dr. Zatezalo. Looking forward to returning in the future.

As a recent transplant from Miami, I was nervous about finding a new dermatologist in Washington, DC. Luckily, I found Dr. Emily Gerson and couldn't be happier with my experience. She was very thorough and knowledgable, and took the time to listen to my concerns and answer all of my questions. I did Fraxel laser a few days after our consultation and my skin already looks 6 yrs. younger. I am scheduled to go back in 3 weeks for a "refresh". I know i'm with the best Dermatologist in DC and can't wait for the results. Highly recommend Dr. Gerson to anyone in the DC area looking for a top-notch dermatologist!

Gerson is the best doctor in the DMV. I first saw Dr Gerson when I was around 4 and I am 20 now! She has helped treat every skin condition I have had with immense empathy and care. Dr Gerson knows dermatology so well that my other doctors rave about her. She is also very educated regarding other medical specialties and was able to spot other conditions that my primary care doctor missed. Thanks to her brilliance I was able to get effective treatment for my allergies, deviated septum, and anxiety. I could not recommend her enough!
