Cosmetic surgery has been in practice for quite some time. Surgical procedures are being increasingly used to restore natural looks and features. More over this form of surgery is often done to correct deformities arising out of bad lifestyles and those caused by diseases. To restore one’s look face lift procedures are done. There are quite a few forms of surgeries that are done to ensure a revitalized look and gain back the one’s lost looks. The very basic form of eye surgery is Lasik which stands for laser assisted in situ Keratectomy. Apart from this laser assisted other procedures are also done to regain lost looks.

The use of Laser is quite common in face lift procedures. Lasik for example is done so as to correct the eye sight problems and also to correct astigmatism. After successful Lasik procedure the patient will not be required to wear glasses or contact lenses. Often people have puffy eyes or accumulation of fat below the lower eye lid. There is laser assisted procedure for correcting and removing the fat accumulation below the lower eye lid. This procedure is Blepharoplasty and using CO2 laser incision are made behind the back of the lower eye lid and the fat is removed. Similarly for the upper eye lid incisions are made on the natural creases and fat is removed and toning is done. This gives natural looks and no bruises are visible and the patient gets a refreshed look.

The other forms of Cosmetic Eye surgery is done when either the eyelid doesn’t open properly due to old age or cataract operation or when the eye lids either open inwards or outwards. In the first case when eye lids do not open properly it can cause loss of correct vision and also degenerate looks of the eyes. In this case face lift procedures are used using CO2 laser and the procedure is called Ptosis. When the eye lids are either turned in the correction of the same is called entropion repair and similarly when the eye lids are turned outwards the surgical procedure is called ectropion repair. This cosmetic eye surgeries are primarily done to regain lost looks and mostly these surgeries are primarily because of degeneration of skin due to aging and the idea behind this face lift surgeries is to hide or neutralize the effects of aging on one’ looks.

The other forms of facelift procedures include endoscopic forehead and brow lifts. These surgical procedures are necessary as sometimes drooping of the upper lid is because of the drooping of the upper forehead. Co2 laser is used to make incisions and correct the drooping. These procedures are performed by making incision along the natural creases and hence bruises are visible. These face lift procedures are performed with local anesthesia and the patient can expect complete recovery in a week’s time. The use of co2 laser and its capabilities to make incision without damaging surrounding tissue has made these face lift surgeries so popular.
