Upper Blepharoplasty
Aging in the upper eyelids again starts relatively early in all ethnicities, including those present in the Caribbean. In youth, a stable brow position and absence of redundant skin impart an “open” look to the eyes without folds of upper lid skin. A person appears thus fresh, alert, full of vitality. the upper eyelid contour is smooth and presents an easy platform to apply make-up to. With aging the eyebrows lose their firm anchoring, descend and contribute to increasing skin redundancy, which is aggravated by loss of elasticity of the upper eyelid skin and laxity of the underlying lid muscle. The eyes appear “closed”, the individual looks tired and aged and it becomes difficult to apply make-up. Loss of volume and bone of the eye socket, particularly towards the nose contribute to the “hollow” appearance, another tell-tale sign of aging giving the impression of decreased vitality.
Botox
Botox is the trade name of the first commercially available preparation of botulinum toxin A (henceforth BTN-A). It is the miracle drug par excellence in aesthetic medicine, plastic surgery and neurology. Botox is so popular in aesthetic medicine because it predictably works each and every time. It is a medication in the real pharmacological sense of the word. Like a blood pressure pill lowers the blood pressure if taken as directed by the doctor, Botox decreases facial wrinkling if injected correctly by a knowledgeable plastic surgeon. Like any other medication, Botox has to be reapplied at certain intervals to maintain its effects in facial rejuvenation and anti-aging.
