Services
Regarded as a top oculoplastic surgeon in the greater Washington, DC area, Dr. Albert Cytryn brings over 25 years of experience to eyelid and facial plastic surgery at Cytryn Cosmetic Surgery. As part of a broad range of care, he offers a full span of procedures designed to correct various aesthetic concerns while rejuvenating the face with incredibly natural-looking results.
As we age, the upper eyelids tend to sag. The aging changes may be environmental or hereditary in nature and often reflect similar skin changes throughout the face. The connections between the eyelid skin and underlying muscle will frequently weaken, and the fat that normally sits well within the eye socket during youth will often prolapse forward into the eyelid.
As we age, the tissues that tend to hold the fat of the eye socket in place weaken, thus allowing for the prolapse of fat into the lower eyelids. The surrounding skin also becomes "crepey" and lax in many cases, and tendons in the outer corner of the eyelid may fall. All of these changes can collectively create the appearance of puffy lower eyelids, potentially with dark circles manifesting around the eye socket.
The anatomy of the Asian eyelid is quite different from that of the western occidental eyelid, with perhaps the greatest anatomical variance being a crease (or fold) near the low margin of the upper lid. A large percentage of Asian women and men do not have this crease-or the fold is positioned so low that it is virtually undetectable-creating what's known as a "single fold" upper eyelid.
Over time, our facial appearance is impacted by numerous factors both in and out of our control, including genetics, environmental elements, lifestyle habits and interests, and even the natural process of aging.

While the timing and significance of their effects on the face vary by individual, these factors often lead to wrinkles, skin laxity, jowling, volume loss, neck banding, and various other cosmetic concerns that can make us look much older than we truly are or feel.

Dr. Cytryn is an artist. He has removed a suspicious lesion right under my left eye lid. That was 2 weeks ago. The area is completely healed with no visible sign of anything.
Dr. Cytryn is a surgeon's surgeon!
