Our eyes are an important aesthetic structure that gives the first impression about our identity at first glance. It also gives information about our age and ethnicity. There may be age-related excess skin, streaking or drooping on the eyelids. Over time, the depression on the eyelid may disappear or deepen. At a later stage, this may also affect the field of view.
Age-related streaking and excess skin can also be seen on the lower eyelid. In addition, bagging, lengthening of the eyelid, deterioration of the cheek-eyelid relationship can be seen. These deformities in the lower eyelid can give a tired, sleepless and sad appearance. The purpose of eyelid aesthetics is to provide a younger and fresher appearance. A more vigorous appearance can be achieved with more lively looks.
Blepharoplasty surgery can be performed under general or local anesthesia. Both upper and lower eyelid surgery can be performed at the same time. If necessary, mid-face lift surgery can be performed together with lower eyelid surgery. In upper eyelid surgery, eyelid drooping and eyebrow lifting surgery can also be performed. The duration of the operation will vary according to the combination of the surgeries. The suture marks are hidden in the upper eyelid cavity and the lower eyelash edge and are normally not noticed. This area is one of the areas with the least scars in our body. Patients can return to work life in an average of 7-10 days.
