Eye Surgery

Eye surgery at Laree centers on revision: correcting a loosened, scarred or asymmetric crease, repairing canthoplasty complications and reversing unwanted double eyelids. The surgeon reviews the earlier surgery and current tissue condition before deciding how far to go. Primary procedures such as ptosis correction, fat grafting, lower eyelid fat repositioning and eyelid surgery for mature eyes are also performed.

• Eyelid revision surgery

  A double eyelid line that is too high, has loosened or disappeared, is asymmetric, or has left visible scarring after a previous surgery.

• Canthoplasty revision and reversal

  Over-incision, scarring, re-adhesion or conjunctival show after medial or lateral canthoplasty; damaged tissue is restored rather than cut further.

• Double eyelid reversal (monolid surgery)

  A thick or unwanted double eyelid crease changed into a monolid, inner fold or in-line crease.

• Ptosis correction

  Weak eyelid opening that makes the eyes look sleepy or tired, corrected together with the crease design.

• Lagophthalmos correction

  Over-corrected eyelids that do not close fully after previous surgery.

• Upper eyelid loop fat grafting

  Hollow, sunken upper eyelids; the cause is assessed first and the patient's own fat is placed in an evenly spread loop pattern.

• Lower eyelid fat repositioning

  Puffy under-eye bags with a hollow below; fat is moved into the hollow through the inner eyelid (transconjunctival approach).

• Eyelid surgery for mature eyes

  Sagging, thickened upper or lower eyelids treated with upper blepharoplasty, lower blepharoplasty or brow lift.

• Canthoplasty

  Short eye width that makes the eyes look closed-in, lengthened by medial or lateral canthoplasty designed to the eye shape.

• Ectropion and entropion correction

  Eyelids that turn outward or inward, causing irritation or an unnatural look.
