For example, younger people often reach it with just the eyebrow liftother slightly older patients will require not only the replacement of the eyebrow, but also the reduction in eyelid volume and finally there is another group of patients who, in addition to the two previous surgeries, present a laxity or weakness of the external ligament of the eye (canthal ligament) which must be corrected and repositioned in conjunction with the elevation of the lateral part of the eyebrow and the Upper blepharoplasty to fulfill that dream of a youthful and sensual look.

Surgery

In the same way, the Canthoplasty can achieve a lower insertion of this portion of the eye.

On the other hand, there are many people who are given Tensioning wireslet us remember that the application of Tensioning wireswhich have as many names as there are brands on the market, only manage to temporarily raise a small portion of the lateral part of the eyebrow, and even when several threads are applied, the result will be for a short time, usually less than a year, although in practice it can be seen that they last only a few months.

The surgery produces a definitive and sustainable repair effect over timesince the fundamental principle of these surgeries is to achieve a total release of the supporting tissues of the eyebrow and once the body and the final part of the eyebrow are free from their muscular and ligamentous anchors, they are fixed with permanent sutures to fixed skeletal structures, in this case the temporalis muscle sheath and the frontalis muscle sheath, which are not significantly affected by the change in collagen composition associated with aging.

Duration and care

Depending on which structures must be modified to obtain the result of Fox Eyes, the length of time the surgery will last will also define how long the surgery takes, ranging from 1 and 3 hours.

Each patient is assessed individually to choose what type of anesthesia is most advisablethere are all the anesthetic options for these procedures from Local Anesthesia, through Deep Sedation and blocks and even General Anesthesia in certain patients.

It is worth mentioning that they immediately come out of surgery, Patients are covered by hypoallergenic tapes on the lateral area of ​​the eyebrow and lateral part of the eyes to reduce inflammation and reduce tension at the closure sites. These tapes They stay for 5 to 7 days before being removed by the patient herself during the shower.

All surgery involves a cut somewhere in our body, and this set of surgical techniques is no exception. However, as in all Facial Plastic Surgery, the cuts or incisions are designed in such a way that they can be practically hidden from outside eyes. The cuts will be hidden on the scalp and the hair will grow after a few months through the small scars when the surgical technique is properly carried out. When accompanied by Blepharoplasty o Canthoplasty, the scars also become imperceptible in a few months.

As in any surgery, there may be some degree of discomfort, this depends on each patient. The majority usually report some degree of Headache or Headacheexplained by the elevation and fixation of the facial tissues to the deep tissues of the scalp, a discomfort that usually subsides with a few doses of mild acetaminophen-type analgesics.

Other complaints related to the manipulation of the eyelids or the canthal ligaments may be tearing or watery eyes, dry eyes or red eyes, sensation of an ocular foreign body, sensitivity to palpation of the orbital rim, among others.

Most patients return to their activities within 8 to 10 days without any problemwhile the scalp sutures will usually be removed after the second week.

Patients are recommended not to receive hair treatments that require the use of chemical substances such as bleaches, dyes, chemical relaxers, among others. After the second week they can receive aesthetic hair management without chemicals.
