Eyelid surgery: Plastic surgery Royal, Belgrade✓

Eyelid surgery, known as blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure aimed at improving the appearance of the eyelids by removing excess skin, fat, or muscle tissue. This procedure can be performed on the upper and/or lower eyelids, depending on the patient’s specific needs. Blepharoplasty is becoming increasingly popular in aesthetic surgery because it helps restore a youthful appearance and reduce visible signs of aging on the face.

When is Eyelid Surgery Needed?

The eyelid is a very delicate area of the face, and over time, it may show signs of aging, such as:

• Sagging Upper Eyelids: Excess skin folds can create a "drooping" effect on the eyelids, making you look tired and older than you actually are.

• Swollen, Puffy Lower Eyelids: Excess fat in this area can create the appearance of bags under the eyes, which may be genetic or a result of aging.

• Excess Skin or Wrinkles: Extra skin around the eyes can interfere with the field of vision, causing functional issues as well as aesthetic concerns.

Blepharoplasty can effectively address both aesthetic and functional problems, improving the overall appearance of the face and restoring a fresh, youthful look.

Who is a Good Candidate for Eyelid Surgery?

This surgery is generally recommended for individuals who:

• Have sagging upper eyelids or puffy lower eyelids.

• Appear tired or older due to excess skin or fatty tissue around the eyes.

• Have realistic expectations about the outcomes of the surgery.

• Are physically healthy and do not have serious eye or skin health issues.

• Are non-smokers, as smoking can slow the healing process and increase the risk of complications.

Benefits of Eyelid Surgery

• Improved Aesthetic Appearance: Eyelid surgery gives the face a fresh, youthful look.

• Increased Confidence: Many individuals who were unhappy with the appearance of their eyes experience a significant boost in self-confidence after the procedure.

• Better Field of Vision: If sagging skin on the upper eyelids obstructs vision, blepharoplasty can improve the field of vision and eye function.

• Long-Term Results: Results from this surgery can last anywhere from 5 to 10 years, or even longer, depending on skin condition and lifestyle habits.

How Does the Blepharoplasty Procedure Work?

• Preparation Before Surgery: First, you will have a consultation with a specialist, where you will discuss your goals, concerns, and health history. The surgeon will perform a detailed examination of your eyelids, analyze the skin structure, and assess the feasibility of achieving the desired results.

• The Procedure: Blepharoplasty is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation, although general anesthesia may be used depending on the scope of the procedure. The surgery lasts 1 to 2 hours. For the upper eyelids, the surgeon makes an incision along the natural fold of the eyelid, while for the lower eyelids, the incision may be made just beneath the lashes or inside the eyelid to minimize visible scarring.

• Recovery After Surgery: Recovery is usually quick, though some mild swelling, bruising, and dry eyes may occur in the first few days. These side effects typically resolve within a few days to a week. Patients are advised to avoid strenuous activity and not rub their eyes during recovery. Additionally, eye protection and moisturizing eye drops are recommended as prescribed by the doctor.

Post-Surgery Care

• Applying cold compresses can help reduce swelling and bruising.

• Postoperative check-ups are mandatory to monitor the recovery progress.

• Most patients need about 7 to 10 days to return to normal activities.

Risks and Complications

As with any surgical procedure, blepharoplasty carries some risks, although complications are rare. Possible risks include:

• Bleeding

• Infection

• Scarring (although the incisions are made in natural skin folds, scars may still be visible)

• Dry eyes or reduced tear production

• Asymmetry or irregularities in the shape of the eyelids

It’s important to follow all postoperative guidelines provided by your doctor to minimize the risk of complications.
