Why consider eyelid surgery?

The skin around our eyes is the thinnest, most delicate part of the skin on the entire body, so it's not surprising that the first signs of aging appear there long before they do in other regions. The skin covering our eyes works constantly, even when we sleep. Due to its characteristics and sensitivity to various external influences, this area of our face is very susceptible to changes and can significantly impact our physical appearance. Cosmetic intervention in the periorbital region is designed to eliminate these effects and give our face a lively, refreshed, and attractive look to the eyes. The results can often change lives fundamentally because, in addition to the aesthetic aspect, blepharoplasty also influences self-confidence and restores confidence in one's own appearance.

What options are available to you?

The term blepharoplasty encompasses several different surgical techniques. The choice of which one the surgeon will apply depends on several factors – the patient's anatomy, the specific condition of the face, and the desired outcomes of the corrections. In each of these cases, surgery on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or their simultaneous application is available.

Upper eyelid surgery

Do you feel that your upper eyelids lack contour or that they cover your upper lashes? Do they create a sense of tiredness or make your face look tired? All these things can be alleviated by removing excess skin, thereby restoring an open, cheerful look to the eyes. Upper eyelid surgery usually involves making a precise incision along the natural fold above the eye, where our surgeons remove a precise amount of excess skin and fat.

Lower eyelid surgery

Excellent results can be achieved with this method when it comes to the puffy and swollen appearance of the face due to bags under the eyes. Although this problem most commonly occurs with age, it can also appear in patients under the age of twenty. In such cases, our surgeons apply lower eyelid surgery to improve the appearance of this area. Incisions are generally located on the outer edge of the lower eyelid or just below the lashes. During lower eyelid surgery, excess loose skin and/or fat are removed to achieve a more natural look. Eyelid surgery is often combined with other techniques, such as the use of Botox for wrinkle correction. If it is assessed as possible and providing better results than surgery, hyaluronic acid can be used for under-eye correction.

Combining blepharoplasty with other techniques

Although blepharoplasty can significantly rejuvenate the appearance of patients, many choose to combine this surgery with addressing issues that may exist in other areas of the face. It is very common for facelift or brow lift procedures to be performed simultaneously with blepharoplasty. Brow lift contributes to even better results in the upper eyelid area, while facelift works well with under-eye correction.

Results need to be preserved and nurtured

With a healthy lifestyle, as well as adequate habits regarding facial skin care, the results of blepharoplasty can last for years without any changes in appearance! With the excess loose skin removed, the eyes will look young and inspired again. Eyes will be able to speak more than a thousand words with a single movement when dark circles and wrinkles around the eyes become an unpleasant thing of the past. The effects of a well-done treatment will not only be seen in aesthetic terms but will also bring numerous, long-lasting benefits in terms of self-confidence and satisfaction with one's appearance. That's why anyone who grants themselves the results of blepharoplasty should pay attention to their longevity!
