Eyelid Reconstruction Surgery

Eyelid reconstruction surgery may become necessary after lid defects, trauma, tumors, or congenital anomalies — and because the eyelids involve the thinnest, most delicate skin on the body, this is among the most exacting work in facial reconstruction. The goal is always twofold: restoring both the function and the natural appearance of the eyelids. Dr. Erez Dayan performs eyelid reconstruction surgery for a range of causes at Avance Plastic Surgery Institute in Reno/Tahoe, NV.

Few areas demand more reconstructive precision than the eyelid, and Dr. Erez Dayan’s training is ideally suited to it. He completed the Harvard Plastic Surgery Program, serving as Chief Resident at Massachusetts General Hospital and training in microsurgical and facial reconstruction — including time on the face transplant team — before an elite aesthetic fellowship at the Dallas Plastic Surgery Institute. A board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon and Medical Director of Avance Plastic Surgery Institute, he is frequently called upon to demonstrate advanced techniques for other physicians, and works closely with optometrists and other eye specialists so both the functional and cosmetic aspects of your eyelids are fully addressed. Eyelid reconstruction is one of his facial reconstructive surgery procedures.

Within these delicate structures are skin, muscle, cartilage, and mucosa — the smooth, thin lining that lubricates the eye — and the upper and lower eyelids each serve a specific function that must be preserved or restored. The size and location of the needed repair are key, and various methods of repairing or replacing tissue and other components are available depending on the specific defect, deformity, or trauma. Dr. Dayan determines the right approach after a thorough evaluation, coordinating with eye specialists as needed.


Oculoplastic Cosmetic Surgery

Repair of the eyelids, also called oculoplastic cosmetic surgery, is typically an outpatient procedure that Dr. Dayan performs while the patient is under general anesthesia. He will consult with you and other medical specialists, as necessary, to discuss the reconstructive work that is needed, as well as explain the procedures and answer your questions.

Dr. Dayan is frequently called upon to demonstrate advanced cosmetic plastic surgery techniques and technology for other physicians and surgeons at Avance Plastic Surgery Institute. He has written and lectured extensively across the world, teaching plastic surgery and reconstructive techniques. Your oculoplastic cosmetic surgery could not be entrusted to a more skilled and qualified surgeon.
