What is Blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty, or commonly known as eyelid surgery, corrects the upper part of the eyelids by removing excess skin. This procedure will correct the effect of ageing on the face, which may cause both aesthetic and functional discomfort. Thanks to this operation, your look will be more energetic and you will appear younger.
Sagging eyelids are often the result of the ageing process. Excessive exposure to sunlight, poor sleep, excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages, smoking or hereditary factors lead to drooping eyelids in both men and women. Sagging eyelids distort the eyes and make the person look older, more tired and sad. In addition, skin tones, crow’s feet wrinkles and dark circles are the undesired situation for many people.
Eyelid surgery is usually performed after the age of 35. After this age, problems with the eyes become more intense. Women find it more difficult to apply make-up to their eyes. Sagging eyelids also make it difficult to see.
When the surgeon makes a small incision in the folds of the upper eyelid, the incisions are so small that the scars are almost invisible. Generally, the best aesthetic results are achieved when this procedure is combined with a brow lift.
For a definitive rejuvenation of the eyes, an operation on the lower eyelids can rectify dark circles and pockets of fat. The surgeon will determine which procedures to perform.
