Blepharoplasty, or eyelid aesthetic surgery, is performed to give the eyelids a younger and more taut form. Eyelids may sag with advancing age. With the effect of gravity, a downward sagging of the skin occurs. This is extremely uncomfortable for patients.
Loosening of the skin can sometimes be serious. Some people have a problem with under-eye bags. While the eyelids of these people droop with the effect of aging, the problem of under-eye bags is also seen. In such cases, this plastic surgery can be performed to improve the appearance around the eyes.
Sagging of the face, lower and upper eyelids can also cause vision problems. Especially if the sagging has progressed, a part of the eye is covered by the skin. This situation causes patients to have problems with vision. Because in eyelid aesthetic surgeries, the operation planning is done according to the needs of the patient.
Depending on the degree of sagging, the rate of skin to be removed may vary. In case the patient has under-eye bags, it is possible to eliminate both problems in a single session.
In case of under-eye bags, the membrane in front of the herniated fat tissue is strengthened. If there is excess fat tissue, this fat mass is removed during the surgery. This process makes the lower and upper eyelids look much more aesthetically pleasing. In addition, it becomes possible for the person to see more easily.
