Eyelid Surgery for a Fresh, Rested Look

Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) on Vancouver Island, BC

As the years go by, you might start noticing some changes in your face, especially when you hit your 30s and 40s. The skin around your eyes can begin to sag, and extra skin may show up, affecting how your whole face looks, giving you that “always tired” appearance. These shifts can happen gradually, and you might not notice them right away, but they can play a role in making you look a lot less youthful than you feel.

   Refresh Your Look with Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)

Dr. Barnsley is known for oustanding results in face surgery, and in particular with Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty), a precise procedure designed to remove excess skin and reduce puffiness around the eyes. This treatment carefully reshapes the eye area, resulting in a more awake and youthful appearance.

Enhance your eyelid surgery with a mini eyebrow lift

Dr. Barnsley deeply understands the interconnected changes that occur in the face and aims to provide comprehensive solutions that restore your natural harmony, which is why may recommend a combined surgical treatment. During your consultation with Dr. Barnsley, you will be able to review various options that are suitable for your particular case.

   Comfort and Convenience at Our Lantzville Location

Dr. Barnsley is pleased to offer eyelid surgeries using local anesthesia in our Lantzville office. This method ensures a quicker and more comfortable recovery, so you can quickly resume your everyday activities with ease.

What are the benefits of using local anesthesia during your eyelid surgery?

Using local anesthesia during procedures like eyelid surgery offers several benefits.

Reduced Risk: Local anesthesia is associated with fewer risks than general anesthesia, particularly for patients with certain medical conditions or those concerned about the effects of heavier sedation.

Quicker Recovery: Typically the recovery is quicker from local anesthesia, patients experience less grogginess and disorientation post-procedure.

Minimal Downtime: With local anesthesia, you’re likely to have minimal downtime, allowing you to return to daily activities sooner.

Awareness: You will remain awake and can communicate with Dr. Barnsley, which can be advantageous for immediate feedback during the procedure.

Comfort: Despite being awake, local anesthesia ensures that the surgical area is numb, so you should not feel any pain during the procedure.

Controlled Side Effects: Side effects such as nausea are less common with local anesthesia compared to general anesthesia.

   How Much Does It Cost?

The cost of eyelid surgery varies based on individual needs, with the upper eyelid lift starting at $3,920 plus tax as of April 2024. A lower eyelid surgery or an addition of a brow lift, depending on your specific requirements, can affect the fees. The final cost can vary based on a number of factors, such as the extent of correction needed and the specific techniques employed to achieve your rejuvenation goals. To get a precise understanding of the investment, we encourage you to schedule a consultation. During this personalized meeting, Dr. Barnsley will thoroughly assess your needs, discuss potential treatment plans, and provide you with a detailed quote.

   Non-Surgical Alternatives

For those seeking a non-surgical alternative to address signs of aging around the eyes and forehead, AccuTite offers a revolutionary solution. We take pride in being the exclusive provider of AccuTite on Vancouver Island.

It’s important to note that while AccuTite may not deliver the same level of transformation as the combination of Blepharoplasty and Brow Lift, it can be a suitable option for individuals at earlier stages of aging or those who prefer a non-invasive approach. This minimally invasive, radiofrequency-assisted procedure targets sagging skin and fine lines without the need for traditional surgery. Using advanced technology, AccuTite delivers controlled thermal energy, stimulating collagen production and tightening loose skin.
