What is blepharoplasty (eyelid aesthetics) surgery?
Eye contact is very important in bilateral communication. With the natural effect of aging, loosening of the bonds in the skin and separation from the subcutaneous tissues occur. This causes sagging of the skin and the upper eyelid skin folds. Upper eyelid skin sagging sometimes progresses so much that it can even exceed the eyelashes and narrow the visual field. Over the years, the fat pads that surround and support the eye congenitally become herniated with the natural effect of aging and the effect of gravity, and lower eyelid bags occur. Skin folds on the upper eyelid and bags on the lower eyelid make the person look tired, unhappy and older than they are. This is the surgical treatment of upper eyelid skin sagging and lower eyelid bags.
Correction of the procedure is called blepharoplasty. In blepharoplasty surgeries, excess skin and herniated adipose tissue are removed (or replaced), resulting in a younger, more dynamic and lively appearance. Unfortunately, these situations cannot be corrected with botox or fillers. The surgery takes about 30 to 45 minutes under local anesthesia. After the operation, the eyes are not closed, the patient can return to his daily life the next day.
