“Signs of aging first start around the eyes. Eyes, which are the focal point of the face, are more exhausted and older in the person due to tiring city life, environmental factors, and heavy work schedule. It creates a landscape. This is why aesthetics around the eyes is one of the most important areas to be considered in aesthetic facial surgeries! Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeon Associate Prof. Dr. Karaca Başaran underlined the important points about aesthetics around the eyes.”
Many patients suffer
When meeting a new person, the eyes are often the first place we focus, and the first change that many people notice with aging is the eye area. The processes around the eyes are gathered under the title of ‘periorbital (around the eye) rejuvenation’. Young and natural-looking eyes are seen as the most valuable condition for obtaining a young face. Unfortunately, nowadays, surgical intervention, botox, filling and similar processes are performed under inappropriate conditions in many places other than plastic surgeons. Misapplications made by uneducated people, who are not even doctors, have very serious consequences. Many patients become victims and there are problems that are difficult to solve.
The aesthetic approach around the eyes requires a different expertise. Seeing this job as just an easy filling or eyelid process can cause significant inconveniences. There are many methods for eyelid aesthetic surgeries, but the main rule is that the 4 main regions should be evaluated in the middle. These; eyebrows, upper and lower eyelids and midface (cheek area). Failure to correct any one of these regions prevents a full rejuvenation in general. For example, in a patient with low eyebrows or drooping cheeks, correction of eye bags alone does not provide satisfactory rejuvenation.
One of the most well-known surgeries of recent years
In general, the midface area covering the cheeks should be considered as well as the eyebrows of the patients for a lively look and a youthful and energetic appearance. With the developing technology in recent years, very pleasant results can be obtained with traceless surgery techniques. For example, with the “endoscopic mid-face lift”, one of the most well-known surgeries of recent years, cheek and lower eyelid tissues can be lifted and brought to where they should be. This process also lifts the corners of the mouth and flattens the fold on the corners of the mouth (nasolabial region) and beautifies the transition in the middle of the cheek and lower eyelid. Likewise, with a similar technique, eyebrows can be lifted (endoscopic eyebrow lift) and brought back to their ideal places without leaving any traces.
Personal planning is done
In general, in patients who come with eye bags, after a comprehensive examination, surgical or non-surgical techniques can be individually planned. In some patients, while the operation is an absolute test, in many patients, very effective results can be obtained with local, short-term processes. The valuable point is that all these processes should be performed by experienced plastic surgeons who are especially interested in eye aesthetics. Among hundreds of techniques, your surgeon can apply the necessary and appropriate technique according to your facial structure and desire. Always remember to discuss all treatment options in detail with the physician in front of you before having a process or surgery!
