When is eyelid blepharoplasty needed?

Periorbital zones are first of all subject to age changes. It is these areas that clearly emphasize the biological age: wrinkles are formed, stretch marks appear and bags form. This is due to the anatomical features of the skin.

Elimination of structural deformations, tightening of the circular muscle of the eyes and eyebrow lifting are possible with the help of eyelid blepharoplasty, in the process of which there is a redistribution or partial removal of fat mass.

The procedure is recommended in the following cases:

• The formation of wrinkles that visually add extra years;
• Flaccidity of muscles and skin in the periorbital area;
• Problematic incision of the eyes. For example, a form that interferes with a full examination, or a person subjectively does not like such a cosmetic defect;
• Ptosis of the lacrimal gland;
• Dark blue circles under the eyes. The problem is not solved even with proper nutrition, healthy sleep and physical activity;
• Overhang of the upper eyelid, which interferes with comfortable vision;
• Fatty hernia caused by the protrusion of excessive amounts of fiber, resulting in eyelids look swollen;
• Protrusion of the eyeball, which impedes the movement of the pupils;
• Eyelid torsion and other defects of appearance, congenital anomalies resulting from injuries and diseases.

The operation eliminates almost all defects caused by deformation of the skin in the periorbital area. Corrective plastic surgery also helps people who have decreased vision quality due to these problems.

Warning! The correction is suitable for patients of any age who have reached 18 years of age. After blepharoplasty, the look becomes open and cheerful, the number of wrinkles is reduced, overhangs and swellings are eliminated. In these areas, the skin is very thin, which promotes rapid healing of scars, which become completely invisible, as modern technology hides them in natural folds.

Advantages of eyelid correction with blepharoplasty

Aesthetic medicine has many advantages, including:

• Rejuvenating effect. Elimination of factors that clearly demonstrate aging, the face becomes fresh, and the look - shining. As a result of external changes, self-esteem increases, complexes disappear, and the quality of life improves;
• Correction of physical features. Only due to surgical methods it is possible to change the shape and section, lift the lowered corners and eliminate other defects;
• Elimination of cosmetic defects. The effectiveness is confirmed in complex cases, where creams and hardware cosmetology do not work. For example, surgical removal of a hernia restores visual function and improves appearance;
• Ability to remove the overhang of the upper eyelid. The first sign of aging is the lowering of the skin on the upper folds, which gives a person a painful appearance. Eyelid correction radically solves this problem, eliminating the effect of tired and tired eyes;
• Long-term effect. The rejuvenating result gives a lasting effect that lasts up to decades, regardless of the individual characteristics of the aging period.

What types of eyelid surgery are practiced in Ukrainian clinics?

For eyelid lifting in clinics of Ukraine such demanded techniques are successfully practiced:

Blepharoplasty of the upper eyelids

Cosmetic plastic surgery of the upper eyelids has long been a streaming operation, which is resorted to not only by women but also by men. Indications for this surgery are: subcutaneous hernia or excess skin hanging over, other defects that interfere with full observe, cause psychological discomfort and cause a gloomy facial expression.

Excessive fabric not only interferes with the quality of makeup, but also leads to rapid muscle fatigue, impairs vision. Upper blepharoplasty removes sagging wrinkles, opening the view and giving the look liveliness and charm.

During the operation, the doctor makes a microscopic incision strictly along the natural line and removes the tissue with excess tissue, forming the upper eyelid (if necessary). The size of the incisions, their number is determined by the doctor previously.

Warning! A thin cosmetic suture is applied after blepharoplasty, which is usually removed on day 5. The scar becomes invisible because it is hidden in the natural line, in addition, during the rehabilitation period, the process of self-healing is started, the epidermis is renewed and new cells are produced.

Plastic surgery can be performed under general anesthesia, but the most common combination is local anesthesia with intravenous sedation.

Lower eyelids lifting

Indications for lower blepharoplasty are the effect of crumpled skin and swollen roundness hanging over the cheekbones. Problems can arise due to hereditary predisposition or due to age-related weakening of circular muscle tissue.

Correction of the lower eyelids is considered a more complex option. The surgeon makes an incision directly under the lashes, separates the muscle bundles, excises the excess mass and cuts off the remnants of flabby tissue. Another option is practiced, when there is a redistribution of fat packages in order to smooth out the existing irregularities.

In the end the doctor applies a cosmetic suture, after healing of which the swelling disappears, the observe becomes complete, and the look is expressive, young and light.

Circular eyelid correction

Simultaneous lifting of the upper and lower eyelids is performed comprehensively and is indicated for congenital pathologies, acquired changes, as well as due to physiological age changes.

During the operation, the doctor makes small incisions, removes excess fiber or redistributes it, reproducing a flat surface, and then makes sutures.

Cantopexy and cantoplasty

As a result of these procedures, the shape of the eye incision is changed, the outer corners are adjusted and fixed at the desired level, and wrinkles are smoothed, including "goose bumps".

Defects are eliminated according to medical indications, and at the request of a person a cat or almond-shaped look is formed, which gives a special charm.

Myopexy

This technology aims to fix the muscles, removing bruises and returning the eyes to the correct proportion. In most cases, the method is used for repeated exposures, such as inversion of the lower eyelid, combined with weakness of muscle tissue. Due to myopexy, the effect of tired eyes disappears, the cover of the periorbital zone is refreshed.

Europeanization

Oriental blepharoplasty is popular among people who have oriental facial features when there are no wrinkles (epicanthus) on the upper eyelids. Due to the Europeanization of the Asian eyelid, a natural line is created, the view becomes more open and expressive.

What types of eyelid lifting operations are performed in Ukraine?

Methods of surgical correction of eyelids in Ukraine are divided into:

The incision is sutured with a thin thread, after 5 days it is painlessly removed. If necessary, in the process of a single procedure, a circular intervention is performed in the upper and lower eyelids (classic medical quadrilateral surgery). Thanks to a one-time combination of two methods, an impressive result is obtained;
2. Transconjunctival. Minimally invasive technology aimed at removing the hernia in the absence of excess skin tissue. The procedure is suitable for young people and those who have good skin tone. No percutaneous incision is made during the procedure, the method is not used to remove excess skin. Even if there is an excess, removal is not provided. The doctor makes a small incision in the eyelid on the inside and removes the hernia;
3. Laser. The incision on the skin and the action of the hernia are performed with a high-precision directional beam of a medical laser. The advantage of this operation is virtually no bleeding. This is made possible by coagulation, when the edges of dissected tissues and vessels are joined, sealed and "sealed";
4. Subciliary. Rejuvenating procedure, during which the doctor makes a small incision along the war edge, the tissue is cut, then the fat mass is removed or redistributed, the surface is leveled. The technique is in demand in middle-aged and older patients and shows effective results, removing hernias, large bags, severe edema and smoothing wrinkles.

How is rehabilitation after surgical blepharoplasty performed?

In most cases, all actions are performed under local anesthesia, occur almost without pain, if desired, general anesthesia can be performed.

During the postoperative period, some patients, based on their individual characteristics, may experience discomfort in the periorbital area, there may be a slight swelling, which passes over a short period of time. The final results of surgical eyelid blepharoplasty are evaluated after 3 months, when the eyes acquire a natural shape, the epidermis is renewed, and new cells make the scar invisible.

Recommendations after plastic surgery:

1. Minimise work of vision in first few days after surgery;
2. Take eye drops prescribed by a doctor to prevent the development of infectious complications and eliminate the feeling of dryness;
3. Do not use make-up and contact lenses during this period;
