Eyelid aesthetic

blepharoplasty; It is the name of the surgery performed to correct the appearance and / or function of the eyelid.

The aesthetic appearance and vision of the eye can be affected by aging, environmental and genetic factors. The eyelid skin is the thinnest part of the body and the area with the worst anti-aging feature on the face.

The thin skin of the eyelid and the thin muscle layer just below cannot prevent the deeper fat tissue from sagging with age.

The laxity of the eyelid skin and muscles causes wrinkles and fat pockets to settle, making the person look tired.

Eyelid surgery is the process of removing excess skin and fat pockets from the upper and lower eyelids and keeping the sagging tissue in place. Double eyelid surgery can lift droopy upper eyelids and reduce puffiness under the eyes.

It can be done together with other surgeries such as brow lift and face lift for more effective results. Your surgeon will determine your expectations during the interviews and give detailed information about the surgical technique and results that he/she intends to apply.

Additional procedures may be recommended based on your expectations and your surgeon's ideas. Your surgeon will thoroughly examine your medical history and ask questions about your general health, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, bleeding disorders, wound healing characteristics, to decide that your health status is sufficient for surgery.

You will also be asked questions about your visual field, tear problems, lens use, and your expectations from the surgery. It is important to inform your doctor about any previous eyelid surgery, as this may increase the risk of complications.
