The aesthetics of the gaze: a multi-faceted subject: Dr. Escalas

Surgeon: Dr. Pierre Escalas

Sourdille-Atlantique Ophthalmological Institute Nantes / Saint Herblain

The alteration of the look with age is the result of several transformations that concern:

- the position of the free edge of the eyelid that may droop (ptosis)

- the amount of skin that increases by sagging (dermatochalazis)

- the position of the eyebrows that can go down (ptosis of the eyebrows)

- changes in fat volume, which can increase (pockets) or decrease (dark circles)

Most of the time, these elements are combined in variable proportions, which should lead to a surgical procedure adapted and specific to each patient.

This film will show you examples of these modifications to help you analyze your gaze and understand the surgical or medical gestures that can be proposed to you. There are indeed many different ways to perform cosmetic eyelid surgery $
