Eyelid Reconstruction Surgery in the Lake Tahoe/Truckee Area
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 patients throughout the Lake Tahoe and Truckee area at Avance Plastic Surgery Institute.
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, where he was one of only two surgeons selected. A board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon and Medical Director of Avance Plastic Surgery Institute, he works closely with optometrists and other eye specialists so both the functional and cosmetic aspects of your eyelids are fully addressed.
Within these delicate structures are skin, muscle, cartilage, and mucosa — the smooth, thin lining that lubricates the eye. Reconstruction surgery for the eyelid seeks to preserve or restore both the function and the form of the eyelids, and the upper and lower lids each serve a specific function that must be addressed alongside their cosmetic appearance. 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.
Oculoplastic Cosmetic Surgery in the Lake Tahoe Area
Eyelid repair, also called oculoplastic cosmetic surgery, is typically an outpatient procedure that Dr. Dayan performs while the patient is under general anesthesia. He consults with you and, when necessary, other medical specialists to discuss the reconstructive work needed, explain the procedures, and answer your questions. As a surgeon frequently called upon to demonstrate advanced cosmetic plastic surgery techniques and technology for other physicians — and one who has written and lectured extensively around the world — Dr. Dayan brings a rare level of skill and qualification to this delicate work.
