The Laser That Keeps Wrinkles Away Blepharoplasty is one of the most frequently requested and satisfying procedures in plastic surgery. Each surgeon has his or her own style in performing this procedure, which, when done well, can yield a dramatic improvement in the patient's appearance. As an oculoplastic surgeon with a practice focus on cosmetic eyelid surgery, I realized that many of my patients wanted to go on to the "next step" in improving the appearance around their eyes after their blepharoplasty. This usually meant improving the appearance of the fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes. The management of skin in the periocular region has become a significant aspect of my practice, especially the use of resurfacing technology. The Laser That Keeps Wrinkles Away The choices we have in the arena of periocular skin care include topical creams, chemical peels and laser resurfacing. Gauging the patient's ultimate desire as well as their tolerance for discomfort are the key points that determine what I recommend. Our patients want rapid healing, which often means returning to most of their normal activities - particularly work - in approximately one week. People are generally not patient with prolonged erythema as we have learned in many cases with the CO2 laser. I have found that the use of various anti-wrinkle creams have helped my patients with mild to moderate periocular rhytidosis. Adjuct procedures such as the use of Botox injections have also been beneficial in maximizing the effects of these anti-wrinkle creams. In my experience, the benefits of many anti- wrinkle creams generally plateau after six months of treatment. Although I treat many patients with this cream, I have found considerable variability in compliance and the patient's perceptions of improvement. The Laser That Keeps Wrinkles Away In my opinion, the ideal compromise between the prolonged erythema and possible complications of the CO2 laser and the subtle improvements from the long-term use of anti-wrinkle creams is the Erbium Laser. There is currently considerable discussion in the dermatology and plastic surgery community regarding the true effectiveness of the Erbium laser and the mechanism of its action. In my experience, choosing patients correctly and discussing the final outcome generally results in patients being satisfied with the results. • The Erbium laser is effectively absorbed by water with essentially no thermal effect. The 2,940 nm emission wavelength matches the peak of water absorption. With a collimately 10um per pass, the precision in which it may be used is excellent. As with other resurfacing procedures, depth should be limited to the papillary dermis. Resurfacing may be done before the blepharoplasty procedure or immediately after the completion of the procedure. If the Erbrium laser is to used at a later date, I usually wait at least three months after the blepharoplasty to allow for some natural skin contracture. The Laser That Keeps Wrinkles Away • My preoperative preparation is consistent with general standards of preparation prior to resurfacing. This includes the use of possible hyperpigmentation afterward. I also advise people to avoid excess sun exposure and to avoid tanning. • Anitiviral medications are prescribed if resurfacing is done in the perioral ara regardless of previous history of herpes simplex. Depending on the timing of the desired procedure, preconditioning of the skin with topical methods and microdermabrasion can be useful in the healing process. The Laser That Keeps Wrinkles Away • When I first began using the Erbrium laser, I was performing the resurfacing with topical anesthetics such as EMLA cream or four percent tetracine gel. I have found that most people did not respond well to topical anesthetic only, even if the creams were supplemented with tetracaine spray during the procedure. It is for this reason, I now inject a small amount of lidocaine one percent with epinephrine 1:100:000 into the submuscular plane and wait at least 15 minutes before proceeding, If I am resurfacing other areas of the face at the same time, I combine limited local infiltration with regional nerve blocks. The laser itselft createsa significant amount of noise, as does my smoke evacuator, so I wait until the last moment before performing the resurfacing. Most of these surgeries are performed under straight local anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. Although the areas are well anesthetized, the patient is advised to expect to be aware of the "pops" as the spots are vaporized. The evacuator is essential as the procedure generates a fair amount of vapor (not heat). Contact Us •Address: Dubai •Phone: +971588230420 •Website: dynamiclinic.com
