Unveiling the Secrets of Blepharoplasty Incisions: Making the Right Choices for Optimal Results

Explore the various options for blepharoplasty incisions and understand how making the right choices can lead to optimal results. Discover the expertise of double board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Jon Mendelsohn from the Advanced Cosmetic Surgery & Laser Center in Cincinnati in selecting the most appropriate incision techniques for your unique needs.

Introduction:

When considering blepharoplasty, one of the critical decisions that contribute to successful outcomes is the choice of incision technique. The placement and design of incisions play a vital role in achieving natural-looking results, minimizing scarring, and preserving the functionality of the eyelids. In this blog post, we will unveil the secrets of blepharoplasty incisions, exploring the different options available and highlighting the expertise of Dr. Jon Mendelsohn from the Advanced Cosmetic Surgery & Laser Center in Cincinnati in making the right choices for optimal results.

  1. Traditional Upper Blepharoplasty Incisions:

a. Transcutaneous Incision: This technique involves making an incision along the natural crease of the upper eyelid, allowing for direct access to remove excess skin, repositioning or removing fat pads, and addressing muscle laxity. The transcutaneous incision offers excellent visibility and control during surgery, enabling precise adjustments for a rejuvenated appearance.

b. Transconjunctival Incision: In cases where excess skin is not a significant concern, a transconjunctival incision may be utilized. This incision is made on the inside of the upper eyelid, hidden from view. It allows for access to the fat pads, which can be repositioned or removed to improve puffiness and restore a youthful contour.

  1. Lower Blepharoplasty Incisions:

a. Subciliary Incision: The subciliary incision is made just below the lower lash line, extending horizontally. This incision provides optimal access to address lower eyelid concerns, including the removal or redistribution of fat pads, tightening of lax muscles, and removal of excess skin. Careful placement and closure techniques help ensure minimal scarring.

b. Transconjunctival Incision: Similar to the upper eyelid, a transconjunctival incision may be used for lower blepharoplasty when excess skin is not a primary concern. This incision is made on the inside of the lower eyelid, allowing access to the fat pads for repositioning or removal.

  1. Factors Influencing Incision Choice:

a. Patient’s Anatomy: The patient’s unique eyelid anatomy, including the presence of excess skin, fat deposits, and muscle laxity, is a significant factor in determining the most suitable incision technique. Dr. Jon Mendelsohn’s expertise allows him to carefully assess your anatomy and choose the approach that will best address your specific concerns.

b. Desired Outcome: The desired outcome of the blepharoplasty procedure also influences incision selection. Whether the goal is to improve aesthetics, functionality, or both, Dr. Mendelsohn’s extensive experience ensures that the chosen incision technique aligns with your expectations.

c. Scarring Concerns: Minimizing visible scarring is a priority for many patients. Dr. Mendelsohn’s refined incision placement and closure techniques aim to achieve inconspicuous scars that blend seamlessly with the natural contours of the eyelids.

a. Customized Approach: Dr. Mendelsohn understands that each patient is unique, and a personalized approach is crucial for achieving optimal results. His expertise allows him to select the most appropriate incision technique based on your specific needs, anatomy, and desired outcomes.
