A blepharoplasty is an operations to remove excess skin and fat from your eyelids and to tighten the skin and soft tissues around your eyes.
Tears wash away debris from the eye and are drained away into the nose via two small drainage ports (or ‘puncta’) in the inner corner of the upper and lower eyelids.
BOTOX® is a highly purified preparation of botulinum toxin A that is injected into facial muscles to soften wrinkles and lines. It is most often used on forehead lines, crow's feet (lines around the eye) and frown lines. The treatment can also result in a brow lift.
Abnormal activity of the thyroid gland in the neck (be it over- or under-action), may lead to inflammation in the delicate tissues within the orbit (the eye socket). This inflammation is a form of immune ‘auto-reactivity’, but the exact factors which link thyroid disease and TED remain uncertain.
