When considering an
important decision such as cosmetic eyelid
surgery, one must look for expertise in the
delicate area of the eyes. Dr. Wirta is a
board-certified ophthalmologist, as well as
a specialist in plastic surgery of the
eyelids. He has devoted his surgical
practice to plastic and reconstructive
surgery on the area around the eyes.
Eyelid surgery is the
one cosmetic surgery which can have the
greatest impact on one’s appearance. Many
people look tired because of the appearance
of their eyelids, but feel energetic
inside. Eyelid surgery can take years off
your appearance, and restore a more rested
look. Dr. Wirta’s philosophy is about a
natural-looking result. His goal is to have
his patient look more rested or as if they
lost weight, not like they’ve had eyelid
surgery.
Surgery is done as an outpatient, most of the time under a local anesthesia. Surgery can be performed at Dr. Wirtaâs office or at a local hospital or surgery center depending on patient preference. Surgery only takes about an hour, and post-operative pain is in most cases minimal. Recovery from bruising or swelling typically occurs in the first 1-2 weeks. Patients return to work anywhere from one day to one week after most procedures.
