Belpharoplasty – Dallas Eyelid Surgery

When the effects of aging and genetics set in, some find that the skin around their eyes makes them look older than they want to. The appearance of bags or puffiness under the eyes, excess sagging skin, droopiness of the lower eyelids and fine wrinkles on the upper lids are all things than can be corrected with cosmetic surgery. Using blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery, Dr. Meade can reverse signs of aging around the eyes.

Blepharoplasty involves small incisions made at various points in or around the eyelid depending on weather or not the upper or lower lid is being corrected. Through these incisions, fat can be redistributed or removed and the skin can be tightened. The incision lines for both upper and lower eye lid procedures blend nicely with natural structure of the eye are are hardly noticeable.

Dr. Meade and his staff can use this and other procedures such face lift, and brow lift in conjunction with eyelid surgery to produce optimal results. The knowledge you receive during a consultation with Dr. Meade will help you decide if blepharoplasty alone will offer the results you are looking for.

Dallas Lip Augmentation

A plump pout has long been considered a stable of sensual beauty. For most of us, however, a plump pout just wasn’t in the cards. Lips a la Angelina Jolie are rare at best, but walk down any cosmetic aisle in any drug store and you’ll find a plethora of glosses that promise to give you that “stung” look with a side of tingly. These are fine for some who desire temporary solutions and a moderate enhancement. For other, however, looking for a more long lasting, effective approach Injectable Fillers may be a fit for you. Since they aren’t an implant you still retain the option to re-apply, so to speak, but the effects will last substantially longer than those over the counter glosses and provide a much stronger result.

The best way to determine if a Lip Augmentation is right for you is by setting up a personal consultation with Dr. Meade to asses your goals. Contact our office today.

Dallas Blepharoplasty

Our eyes often communicate more to others than the words we say. Our eyes can say, “I love you,” “How dare you forget to take out the trash,” “I’m scared,” and so much more. As we age, however, our eyes begin to communicate things we don’t always want them to say. The sagging skin and extra wrinkles seem to be telling everyone, “I haven’t slept in days,” or “I’m upset.”

It is the natural course of life and gravity to begin to pull us down , but now we have options to lift us up again. You don’t have to let your sagging eyes tell a story you don’t want it to tell. You can lift those drooping eyelids and be brought back to a more youthful expression that better represents the story of how you truly feel inside.
