Cosmetic Eye Surgery

Horizon Eye Care is proud to offer a wide range of ophthalmic cosmetic procedures designed to help you "look" as good as you "see". Some of these are:

Botox

A non-surgical procedure, Botox smoothes out the deep, persistent wrinkles between the eyebrows and around the eyes that develop over time. One ten minute treatment - - -a few tiny injections - - -relaxes the muscles that cause those lines to form and keeps them relaxed for up to six months.

Approved by the FDA, Botox consists of natural purified protein produced by the clostridium botalinan bacterium. Botox blocks transmission of nerve impulses to the injected muscles. No anesthesia is required and most patients return to work and/or their normal activity that very same day.

Botox means being able to frown, smile or look surprised without the furrows, creases and wrinkles.

You can come in and learn about Botox and if you’re a candidate, get a treatment that very same day.

Best of all, Botox is one of the least expensive facial cosmetic procedures in the country.

Blepharoplasty

Also known as Cosmetic Eyelid Surgery, Blepharaplasty is designed to cosmetically improve the area around the eyes. The procedure can dramatically alter this area so that the individual appears significantly younger. In a procedure which lasts approximately 30 minutes per lid and which requires only local anesthetic, a portion of the eyelid skin and underlying fatty tissue is surgically removed. This is one of our most common plastic surgeries performed.
