Your eyes are the first thing people see when they look at your face. They immediately give an impression of your age, energy level and fatigue. The eyes are also the first part of the face to show signs of aging, which is why total eye rejuvenation is such a powerful way to restore a youthful glow—either alone or as part of our own Vertical Restore procedure.
Holistic eye rejuvenation with Dr. Karam
Youthful eyes literally shine and look refreshed and alive. However, as we age, there can be a combination of changes that result in excess skin on the upper and lower eyelids, puffiness or bags under the eyes on the lower eyelid, drooping brow corners, and loss of volume around the eyes, temples, and cheeks. OurEyelid surgery in La Jollait can give you a radiant and youthful look again.
As the skin in this area thins, fine lines and wrinkles begin to form, further aging your appearance. This sagging, along with deflation, results in a hollow, pale and tired appearance that is consistent with the old look. These changes usually begin in the mid to late 30s and progress rapidly in the 40s and 50s.
Our Total Eye Rejuvenation procedure is an excellent way to address these issues and can be included as part of Dr. Karam can be combined with a number of other facial aging treatmentsVertical recoveryProcedure.

Preserve your youthful appearance
It's important to note that when people look into your eyes, they don't just see the upper or lower eyelids. See the entire eye region, including the skin, dimples and dark circles under the eyes, and drooping brows. Gone are the sparkling windows of the soul, replaced by tired and shadowy eyes. OurSan Diego Eye RejuvenationSurgery can be one of the most effective methods of facial rejuvenation.
Traditional approaches focus on blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, which removes skin, muscle and fat to reshape the eyes. In fact, the results of this procedure often make the eyes look older and just different, not better. This does not achieve the entire goal of eyelid surgery, which is to give the eyes a refreshed and revitalized look. Dr. Karam brings years of experience and can achieve results that really highlight your natural youthful qualities.
Our holistic approach
Our preferred method for total eye rejuvenation is based on a comprehensive and holistic approach to treating the various changes affecting this area.
The first step is a thorough assessment of the periorbital region. Aging of the eyes is the result of a combination of changes in the various components around them. A careful assessment of these changes is the first step towards real and meaningful eye rejuvenation, giving the eyes a bright, healthy, fresh and natural look.
Three components of preorbital aging
- Skin wrinkles and folds, thinning and loss of elasticity
- Loss of volume and the presence of depressions and shadows
- Sagging skin of the upper and lower eyelids
- The presence of bags under the eyes
- Blockages in the outer corners of the eyes due to lateral drooping of the eyebrows

Treatment of preorbital aging
The skin around the eyes can become wrinkled from repetitive muscle movements between the eyes (glabella) and around the corners of the eyes (crow's feet). As we age, we lose fat around the eyes, temples and cheeks. This development has little to do with your body weight, as the fat stored in the upper cheeks and around the eyes is genetically predisposed to decrease with age. Periorbital fat loss particularly affects the temples, upper eyebrows, the areas under the eyebrows and under the eyes, and the upper part of the cheeks.
All of these changes result in dark hollows under the eyes, sagging, sunken cheeks and a bony appearance on the temples and upper lids...which we correct with our advanced Total Eye Rejuvenation procedure.
Our unique approach to treatment
When these changes occur in each of the periorbital components, each aforementioned affected region is assigned a separate treatment. After a comprehensive assessment of age-related changes around the eyes, a much more detailed treatment plan can be put together, which may include ourEyelid surgery in San DiegoOperation.
The plan is calledVertical recoveryThe procedure typically involves a variety of non-surgical and conservative surgical modalities combined to truly rejuvenate the face and eyes with minimal risk and downtime. As a result, the patient looks revitalized and rejuvenated without changing their overall appearance.
loss of volume
When we lose a layer of fatty tissue along the lower eyelid area and the upper part of the cheeks, the eyes look hollow, giving the impression that we are tired and aged. An important and very important part of our eye rejuvenation philosophy is restoring volume through fat transfer.
fat transfer
This treatment complements our surgical procedures well and is performed in almost every case of rejuvenation (about 350 cases per year) to restore lost volume around the eyes. This leads to long-lasting and natural restoration of volume.
Adding volume is the most effective and important way to rejuvenate the eyes. Skin and loose skin may look better without them, but eyes will never look as refreshed and youthful. Commonly occupied areas include:
- hram
- the upper eyelid
- eyebrows
- Lower orbital rim
- tear troughs
- Obere Wangen
relaxation
If there is excess skin, conservative surgery is needed to remove it. The following procedures are used to solve certain problems.
Blepharoplasty of the upper eyelid

anesthesia
For safety reasons, perhaps one of the biggest advantages is that these procedures can be performed under local anesthesia with intravenous sedation. With this technique, patients are comfortable and moderately sedated. Most patients choose this method to avoid the risks associated with general anesthesia.
Our facility is also fully equipped for general anesthesia for patients who prefer it. All surgical procedures are performed at our accredited and certified (JCAHO) surgical center, Carmel Valley Surgical Center, located within the suite. This San Diego surgery center offers the highest level of safety and state regulations for outpatient surgery.
Highly trained and experienced surgical technicians, medical assistants, registered nurses and a board-certified anesthesiologist work together to create the safest and most comfortable experience, Carmel Valley Surgery Center is home to two state-of-the-art surgical suites and a recovery center.
Our rooms are equipped with the best equipment and the most modern instruments, and the center has a separate entrance and exit from the main office, which allows our patients to perform their procedures in privacy. Your comfort always comes first during your time with us.
care after the procedure
After surgery, your incisions will be covered with ointment. In cases where a lateral eyebrow lift has been performed, a gauze bandage is placed and wrapped around the head for one night. After the procedure, return home or to your hotel room in the comfort of your own home before returning to our office the next day for check-in. At this moment Dr. Karam takes off the bandages and examines your face carefully.
A cold compress is used for the first two days after surgery to reduce swelling. Lubricant drops are used during the day and ointment at night to keep the eyes moist and prevent them from drying out. Antibiotic ointment is applied to the cuts for a week.
After a week, the stitches will be removed in our office. At that point, the swelling begins to subside quickly. Follow-up appointments are scheduled at one month, three months, six months, and one year so that Dr. Karam can monitor your healing and ensure that all of your questions are answered.
Recovery after complete rejuvenation of the eye
Recovery is primarily related to swelling. Bruises are not a common occurrence in our patients, but there is a possibility. A typical recovery period is between 10 and 14 days.
We recommend that you schedule a two-week break from work or social engagements to give yourself time to recover.
Although healing is not complete after two weeks, most patients are sufficiently healed to be able to return to work and other social activities. Slight swelling continues to steadily improve up to a year after the procedure. Depending on the type of activity and degree of swelling, exercise can be resumed three to four weeks after surgery.
