Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)

Eyelid surgery is a cosmetic procedure involving the removal or alteration of the eyelids.

Eyelid surgery is a cosmetic procedure involving the removal or alteration of the eyelids. Eyelids are essential to body parts and can affect our appearance and feel. Eyelid surgery is a cosmetic procedure that alters the arrival of the upper and lower eyelids. Eyelid surgery can reduce wrinkles, remove bags under the eyes, change eye color, etc.

The eyelids form a protective shield from environmental elements and help maintain the eye's internal environment. They also protect against strong winds.

What is Eyelid Surgery?

Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a surgical process in which you can restore or modify the shape of your eyelids.

Eyelid surgery is used to correct any deformities on the upper and lower eyelids, extract excess skin and fat from the eyelid margins, and reshape the eyebrows.

In this sense, we can divide eyelid surgery into two groups. Double eyelid surgery is a procedure that creates an artificial crease in the upper eyelid to make it look more like a Western-style eye.

Upper eyelid surgery is a procedure used to remove excess skin from the upper lids. It's often caused by natural aging.

Even if you're looking for more specific operations like lower eyelid surgery, Double eyelid surgery, our doctor's specialist team can help with their expertise.

The examination is just as necessary as the operation regarding a medical procedure. Experienced surgeons know this, so they want to see your detailed medical records.

This is an important decision, and we hope you can fill in all the details. Your condition may affect the operation, so it would be helpful if you could talk about your expectations or any hesitations or worries.

So, the first rule is to listen to your surgeon and follow their instructions.

The second part is an examination. Our doctors will complete this in three steps. The first step is to check the eyelids, which helps determine the problem. Next, your surgeon will evaluate your visual acuity and eye coordination abilities.

Some people need eyelid surgery because their eyelids prevent their eyes from seeing. So, surgeons must see which specification they want to use with a visual examination. The final step is to take photographs of the patient and show them to an expert to ensure the job is done right.

If you need to have an operation, you must be put under for it. The type of anesthesia we provide depends on your needs and the specifications of your procedure. It's also determined by what kind of age group you're in and your medical history.

What is the Double Eyelid Surgery? 

When the skin of the upper eyelid becomes creased and causes a second lid, the physicians call this condition a Double eyelid.

Asian people have a second eyelid that is visible when they're tired. The skin fold can also be seen when they blink, as seen in the drooping of the lid. In double eyelid surgery, the surgeon will remove fat and skin tissue causing creases in your eyelid through a mini-incision. The procedure will take approximately one to two hours, and you can go home after that.

If you have a droopy eyelid causing you to blink less and dry out your eyes, it can be corrected with eyelid surgery. This surgery will require stitches on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, and under the lashes. The surgeon will make an incision in the skin and fold it back to expose the muscle that needs to be corrected.

Droopy Eyelid Surgery 

Drooping eyelids are also known as ptosis or blepharoptosis. It is a medical condition where your upper eyelids are lower than usual when you open your eyes.

As we grow old, the muscles that hold up our eyelids weaken. It can happen in only one eye or both. Sagging eyelids might not pose a danger immediately, but in severe cases, you could lose sight if your eyes are blocked by droopy eyelids obstructing your line of sight.

Like double eyelid surgery, our surgeons use a small incision in your lid. The surgeon will then neutralize the discolored muscles, nerves, and other tissue in the area and put your debilitated muscles back in place.

Upper and Lower Eyelid Surgery 

Besides a droopy or double eyelid, your eyelids have many other deformities. Our experienced surgeons can help you solve issues with your eye skin and upper and lower lids. You might have one lid that needs to be repaired too!

We'll open the incisions on your upper eyelid, just below your eyebrows. The procedure is the same at both points.

Why Blepharoplasty surgery?

Some patients may have extra fat and skin on the upper and lower eyelid. To remove this skin and fat from the upper and lower eyelids, Blepharoplasty surgery can be performed. Sometimes, it is also committed to reshaping the eye. This surgery can help eliminate the puffiness that often occurs under the eyes and make any wrinkles or lines more noticeable.

Depending on the diagnosis, your doctor will advise you on which type of blepharoplasty to pursue—either for the upper eyelid or for both.

In some cases, an eyebrow lift can be a good option for those who want to change their look for approaching Almond-eye, Cat-eye, or Fox-eye. An eyebrow lift can make a person look more youthful by removing the wrinkles and sagging skin that comes with age.

Are you looking for a permanent solution for wrinkles? Check it out. Blepharoplasty takes 2-4 hours, but the recovery process can take up to 14 days, and you'll get a refreshed look afterward.

After the Eyelid Surgery 

The most likely and temporary symptoms you will experience as side effects are:

• Sensitivity to light, especially sunlight.
• That's normal if you may find it hard to control your eyelids. Pressing too hard can put too much pressure on them and cause them to hurt instead.
• Disturbances in your vision
• Swelling and bruising

After your eye surgery, try not to do any strenuous activity that might fold your eyes.
