The first signs of aging start around the eyes. The sagging of the skin of the eyelids can cause a negative appearance over time as well as limitation in the field of vision. All of the procedures performed to correct the appearance and function of the eyelids are called “Blepharoplasty” or Eyelid Aesthetics.
When should eyelid aesthetics be considered?
If you have a loose and sagging fold of skin on your upper eyelids, this appearance bothers you, restricts your vision and even causes fatigue, upper eyelid aesthetics may be a suitable treatment method for you. Lower eyelid aesthetics is also a preferable method if the same problems are seen in the lower eyelid, bagging occurs and these affect you psychologically and socially.
Who can undergo eyelid aesthetics?
Eyelid aesthetics can be performed on patients who do not have serious health problems that would prevent surgery, patients who do not have eye diseases that would prevent eyelid intervention, and patients with realistic expectations.
How is eyelid aesthetics performed?
First of all, the skin, muscle and fat tissue of the eyelids and surrounding tissues are examined in detail. The position and symmetry of the eyelids in relation to the eyebrow and forehead are recorded. Where and how much tissue will be removed from the upper and lower eyelids is marked. Excess skin and muscle tissue is removed to match the tissue fold in the upper eyelid, and the fat underneath is removed or relocated according to the need. In the lower eyelid, the incision is made at the base of the eyelashes or through the eyelid skin (without scar) in suitable patients and the fat tissues that cause bagging are removed or replaced.
What is the postoperative period like and what is done?
It is recommended to keep the head elevated and apply ice intermittently to minimize swelling and bruising that lasts about 1 week after surgery. Depending on the type of anesthesia applied after surgery, you can be discharged on the same day or 1 day later. No serious pain is expected after surgery. The healing process varies according to the healing characteristics of the person and the type of surgery performed. It varies according to the size of the problems in the eyelid, the healing characteristics of the person and the type of surgery performed.
After one week, the stitches are removed and the treatment is continued with the recommended scar removal creams, gels and drops that provide eye care.
