Dr. Lindsey

hi I’m dr. Lindsay let me tell you a bit
00:10
about brow lifts and eyelid surgeries
00:12
I’ve been doing facial plastic surgeries
00:14
since the mid-nineteen nice and there’s
00:18
no more important part of the face then
00:21
this part right here this is what you
00:23
see when you look at somebody it tell
00:24
whether somebody’s telling the truth you
00:26
tell whether smile looks tired you tell
00:27
whether they look like the frazzled this
00:30
is the window to the soul
00:31
and so when that starts looking tired
00:34
even if you are not feeling tired if the
00:37
look you just look tired and people
00:39
started saying what’s wrong with you are
00:40
you so tired
00:41
so there are really three issues that
00:43
you can deal with and trying to
00:45
rejuvenate that part of your face it’s
00:47
the upper third of the face you can do a
00:49
brow lift where we raise the brows back
00:50
up you can do the upper eyelids or you
00:53
can do the lower eyelids and depending
00:55
on what your goals are what your
00:57
downtime is and really what your Anatomy
01:00
is at your consultation we can determine
01:03
what’s the best for you and give you a
01:04
choice we’ve done lots of all three of
01:06
these I’d say the most common and most
01:11
valuable procedure that we do as far as
01:17
improvement per dollar spent or ouch
01:19
incurred or the upper eyelids and 2,900
01:25
sets
01:26
upper eyelids probably half of them by
01:29
themselves and a half of in assertion of
01:30
the Vista just by yourself you don’t
01:33
need any anesthesia at all except for
01:35
local you need something to drive it to
01:38
the office and drive you home
01:40
it’s in so we just numb up the upper
01:41
eyelids take out a little ellipse of
01:43
skin it looks varies in size but now how
01:46
what’s your natum is and then there’s
01:48
generally some fat in the upper eyelids
01:50
that we take out and I’m conservative I
01:52
don’t like that hollow-eyed appearance
01:53
so we take out the fat and so the
01:55
incision line up and you have
01:57
steri-strips would stay on for a day or
01:59
two
01:59
mister just come at it 2 and 5 days
02:02
respectively there’s generally not much
02:05
pain with upper eyelids with lower
02:06
eyelids we can do them down behind the
02:08
eyelid or there’s no cut on the face or
02:10
sometimes we need to do them with an
02:12
incision line just
02:13
two eyelashes it really depends on what
02:16
your goals are and what your daddy is
02:17
when you get here
02:18
and then lastly relative and there’s a
02:21
variety of ways to do brow this which we
02:23
can talk about new kind of office we
02:25
have a portfolio of so we’re hundred
02:27
