Would getting eyelid aesthetics work for me?
In our family, we tend to have droopy eyelids due to genetics. I'm 47 years old now and starting to notice some signs of aging. When I check myself in the mirror, I can't see half of my pupils, and it seems like my eyes are closing prematurely. I've been thinking about eyelid surgery, but I have concerns. About 8 years ago, I had my heart valve and main aortic valve replaced, so I need to take coumadin daily. This raises the risk of bleeding. How could you assist me with this? What would you suggest?
Blood thinners should be discontinued a week in advance. It is enough to cut it for a total of 10 days.
It is necessary to replace the drug with clexane at least 7 days before. Still, you will have a lot of edema and bruising. But this adjustment, the dose determination should be made by the dr friend who follows you. We do your procedure with local anesthesia, there is no need for general anesthesia.
We perform our upper eyelid aesthetic surgeries under local anesthesia.
