However, the scars left from such procedures can significantly mar a patient's post-op appearance. By using silicone-based scar treatment products, patients can ensure that they achieve the look they desire.
Excess skin due to aging can begin to partially block the eye. Plastic surgeons can remove skin around the eyes, allowing for a more youthful appearance and clearer sight.
Patients should also make sure that their surgeon takes into account the functional aspects of the eyelid. Beyond looking good, the lid must function as easily and properly as it did previous to surgery.
They should also consider the purchase of silicone ointments and gels in the case of scarring. Besides being unsightly, scars can reduce normal function if they pop up in an unfavorable spot.
Silicone interacts well with the body's natural biochemistry, allowing for it to quickly and effectively reduce the appearance of scars.
