Understanding Blepharoplasty: Eyelid Rejuvenation in Germantown

Many individuals develop a "tired-eyes" appearance due to aging or genetic factors. Excess skin and fatty tissue around the upper and lower eyelids can create a worn, older aesthetic. Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, offers a precise medical solution to restore a more youthful eye contour.

Comprehensive Eyelid Surgery Techniques

Dr. Lachica performs blepharoplasty in Germantown, Tennessee, utilizing advanced surgical techniques to address both upper and lower eyelid concerns. The procedure involves carefully removing excess skin and fat, creating a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.

Procedure Details

Performed under local and/or twilight anesthesia
Minimal patient sensation during the procedure
Approximately one-hour surgery duration
Minimal invasiveness with quick recovery

Upper and Lower Eyelid Treatment Options

The surgical approach varies depending on individual patient needs. Upper lid surgery focuses on removing excess skin and fat, while lower lid treatments might involve hidden incisions. The goal is to improve sagging, loose skin, and fatty tissue surrounding the eyes.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect minimal downtime, with most returning to normal activities within two to three days. Initial incision sites may appear pink but will soften and lighten over time, typically blending seamlessly with natural skin creases.

Complementary Treatments

Blepharoplasty alone cannot eliminate fine lines or wrinkles. Dr. Lachica may recommend additional rejuvenation techniques such as:

Botox® neuromodulator treatments
FaceMD™ skin care system
Laser treatments
Chemical peels

Frequently Addressed Concerns

Patients often inquire about the longevity of blepharoplasty results. While the surgical changes are permanent, the natural aging process continues. Most patients find their results satisfactory for 10-15 years before considering minor touch-up procedures.

Insurance Considerations

Insurance may cover blepharoplasty if drooping eyelids significantly impair vision. Cosmetic procedures are typically not covered. Dr. Lachica can provide detailed guidance during your personalized consultation.

I began searching for a surgeon because I had experienced massive weight loss (286 lb to 180 lb), resulting in significant loose skin & abdominal muscle damage. I wanted to have the surgery done within my city & began researching online for surgeons who advertised experience working on men. I only encountered two of these surgeons in the entire metro area & scheduled appointments with both of them. My first consultation was with Dr. Lachica, then I had a second consultation with the other surgeon 4 days later. The difference between the 2 consultations was extreme, & it was clear that Dr. Lachica was the right person to do my surgery. First, he had a portfolio of his male surgical cases to review with me. At my other consultation, I was only shown photos of darker skinned women as examples despite being told men made up 10% of his caseload. Second, Dr Lachica took all his own photographs with meticulous detail. He asked me what my primary concerns were & asked if a scribe could sit in to document everything in case he missed something, which reinforced to me how much listening meant to him. He also worked to show me how he determines scar placement, & my initial consultation was around 90 minutes, whereas at the other consult I waited 70 min after my appointment to see the surgeon & he spent less than 30 in my actual consultation. What struck me most during the consultations was how hard Dr Lachica worked to make sure anything he recommended to me matched an evidence based approach as well as addressed my own concerns. I only received opinion based recommendations at my other consultation, because he made very clear his approach was different from most other surgeons. I asked for a follow up consultation with Dr Lachica to ask some final questions that came up after seeing the second surgeon. He made time in his schedule & was professional at every turn. He answered the questions by talking directly to me & not speaking down to like the other surgeon. He told me that his surgical approach was based upon scientific evidence with some of his own experiences thrown in, but that he really wanted me to understand that everything he was recommended was supported by evidence. During the follow up consultation, he pulled up the images he took of me &, to my surprise, had already mocked up a surgical plan, all before I had even officially agreed for him to do the surgery. Even at my final preop appointment where I was marked, Dr. Lachica continued to be as meticulous as possible. He didn’t just arbitrarily draw on me where he was going to operate. Instead he measured & insured everything was as perfect as possible. Then the day of the surgery, he did a few adjustments after studying my photos again over the weekend. My surgery experience was incredibly smooth. I had the surgery at the GASC surgery center that is attached to his clinic office. I arrived at 8 am, was taken back within 5 min, & the process began. The last I remember, it was around 845 & the anesthesiologist was chatting me with about something & then I was out. I woke up & Dr Lachica told me everything went great, the surgery took 6 hours, & they needed me to make sure I could be alert enough to go home. I cannot express how professional & meticulous Dr Lachica & his entire staff were through the whole process. I would highly recommend him. From a cost perspective, I felt his rate was fair given how much time he was spending with me. His rate was lower than the other surgeon I saw, who also told me he “couldn’t do a surgery that took longer than 4 hours.” Dr Lachica mentioned that he felt men needed more time & care in their procedures because of differences in skin, fascia, & muscle composition. I am only four days postoperative currently, but I am confident that once all the swelling subsides, I will be very happy with the results.

Friendly and knowledgeable staff, clean, beautiful offices and a great doctor. This place exceeded my expectations and was a worthwhile experience. I had my tummy tuck and lipo late March and the results so far are amazing. I would very highly recommend.

Dr. Lachica was wonderful! He came to the emergency room on a Friday night after I was bit in the face by a dog. I wasn’t so sure if I would look like myself again, but he did wonderful. Everyone has told me that you can barely tell that anything happened. When I had an expected complication with infection, Dr. Lachica was willing to talk to me on a Sunday evening and get me in first thing Monday. If I ever need something like this again, I know exactly who I am calling!
