What is Eyelid Surgery?

Eyelid surgery, medically known as blepharoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that addresses various concerns related to the eyelids. One common reason for seeking this procedure is the natural aging process, which can lead to drooping or sagging eyelids due to the loss of skin elasticity. This sagging can sometimes become severe enough to obstruct vision, making surgery a practical solution. Additionally, some individuals may have excess skin or fat around their eyelids, leading to puffiness or bags under the eyes, which can contribute to a tired or aged appearance, prompting them to consider eyelid surgery.

Eyelid Surgery Types

Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, involves various types, depending on the specific concerns and goals of the individual.

Upper Eyelid Surgery

Upper eyelid surgery aims to improve the look of droopy upper eyelids by removing fat and excess skin. It involves an incision in the natural crease above the eye.

Upper Eyelid Surgery

Lower Eyelid Surgery

Lower eyelid surgery, or lower blepharoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to improve the appearance of the lower eyelids. It addresses excess fat deposits, loose or sagging skin, and under-eye bags.

Lower Eyelid Surgery

Double Eyelid Surgery

Double eyelid surgery, also known as Asian blepharoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that creates a visible crease in the upper eyelid for individuals who do not naturally have one. The incision is made along the intended crease line. Excess skin and fat may be removed, and the levator muscle, which controls eyelid movement, may be adjusted. The incision is then closed with sutures.

Most of the patients generally require both upper and lower eyelid surgeries.

Step-by-Step Blepharoplasty Turkey

  1. Consultation: Eyelid surgery Turkey procedure starts with doctor examination of the eyes and the eyelids. During the consultation, patients’ needs and expectations are discussed. Pre-operative tests are applied to ensure that nothing can interfere with surgery. In this step, the doctor decides the type of anesthesia—local or general.
  2. Anesthesia: For upper eyelid surgery, based on the patient’s desire, general or local anesthesia can be applied. However, for lower eyelid surgery, general anesthesia is essential.
  3. Incision:
  • For upper eyelid surgery, the surgeon typically makes incisions in the natural crease of the eyelid. This helps hide any scarring.
  • Transconjunctival Incision: For lower eyelid surgery, the incision may be made just below the lower lash line or inside the lower lid. 

4. Tissue Removal and Adjustment:

  • Excess skin and tissue are carefully removed, and muscles are adjusted based on the specific goals of the surgery.
  • If necessary, the surgeon may redistribute or reposition fat to achieve a more youthful appearance.

5. Closure: The incisions are closed with sutures or surgical adhesive. The sutures used are typically very fine and designed to minimize scarring.

  • After the surgery, antibiotic ointment and ice are applied to the surgical area.
  • After an eyelid surgery, it is common to experience blurred or double vision initially. Patients should not be panicked. It is temporary.
  • Patients may have discomfort, swelling, and bruising for the first week. To minimize these complications, the surgeon will prescribe pain medications, and patients are provided with a cold compress to reduce the swelling. 
  • A cold compress must be applied intermittently for 48-72 hours.
  • Resting is crucial during the initial days. Therefore, patients should avoid activities that could strain the eyes, such as reading, watching TV for extended periods, or using screens extensively.

  • After the first week, patients can return to their desk jobs under regular circumstances.

First Two Weeks:

  • The swelling starts to subside, and patients will notice gradual improvements in the appearance of their eyelids.

  • Wearing sunglasses with UV protection is essential for preventing your eyes from being exposed to too much sunlight.

1-3 Months: 

  • Any incision enters a quick rebuilding phase when the wound becomes redder and tighter, and the scars, which were previously difficult to see, soon disappear.

3-6 Months:

  • By this time, most of the swelling and any residual issues should have been resolved, and patients will be able to fully appreciate the surgery results.

Blepharoplasty is often considered in cases where age-related changes, such as excess skin, puffiness, or drooping, become noticeable and bothersome to the individual. While some individuals may choose to have blepharoplasty in their early to mid-30s, it’s more common to consider it in their 40s, 50s, or even later. This is when signs of aging around the eyes become more prominent for many.

The outcomes of blepharoplasty can endure anywhere from five years to a lifetime. The duration of your results hinges on various elements, encompassing the extent of the procedure and the seriousness of your cosmetic issues. For individuals with mild to moderate cosmetic concerns, the effects of upper eyelid correction can extend to 10 to 15 years. However, the results may persist for approximately five to seven years for those with more severe upper eyelid concerns.

Blepharoplasty, when performed by a skilled surgeon, typically poses a low risk of damaging the eyes. However, potential risks include temporary vision changes, dry eyes, infection, and asymmetry. It’s crucial to consult with a qualified surgeon and follow post-operative care instructions to minimize risks.

After eyelid surgery, keep the incisions dry for the first few days. Patients should sse a mild, non-irritating cleanser around the eyes and avoid letting water directly hit the surgical area; gently pat dry with a clean towel. Be cautious not to rub or apply pressure to the eyelids. Follow specific post-op instructions from your surgeon.

A blepharoplasty is advised for individuals seeking to address drooping or excessively heavy eyelids, while a brow lift is suggested for those with brows that are sagging or positioned lower than desired.

No, an eyelid procedure alone cannot correct a low eyebrow. For that specific issue, you would need a temporal lifting, also known as a lateral brow lift or temporal brow lift. This procedure focuses on lifting the outer part of the eyebrow and tightening the skin in the temple area. Consulting with a qualified plastic surgeon is necessary to discuss suitable treatments.
