Blefaroplasty – operation of removing excess skin and fat bags in the eyes. Refers to anti -aging operations. The first signs of aging occur around the eyes, the upper eyelids lose their elasticity and hang over the eyes, the lower eyelids settled, bags and wrinkles form.
Blepharoplasty is a popular operation due to the postoperative result. The operation takes about three hours. Upper eyelid correction is upper blepharoplasty. On the upper eyelid, a classic operation is performed with an incision and suture. The surgeon removes excess skin, removes excess adipose tissue, tightens muscle tissue, stitches, fixes with adhesive tape. Result – the tired look is removed.
Correction of the lower eyelid is a lower blepharoplasty, during this operation, bags under the eyes, wrinkles are removed. The lower eyelid can be operated on in two ways. The first method is transconjunctivital (without an incision), it is indicated for those who do not have wrinkles. This operation removes only fatty hernias. If there are wrinkles, then we apply the second method of operation – with an incision, here a double effect and a hernia is removed and a narrow strip of skin is removed to remove wrinkles. The result – the look becomes younger and more welcoming.
Circular blepharoplasty is available to correct the entire eye. With this operation, the overhanging upper eyelid, bags under the eyes and wrinkles are removed. You need to know that the prices for blepharoplasty, depending on the type of operation, are also different.
Blepharoplasty is one of the most difficult plastic surgeries, the result depends on the surgeon. If you take away little skin and adipose tissue, the result of the operation is reduced to zero. And a lot – often fraught with irreparable consequences. The postoperative period lasts from one week to two. Blepharoplasty does not affect the quality of vision, as it does not affect the eye itself. The result of an eyelid lift is long lasting, often forever. If the operation is performed well, no scars are visible.
