Lower Blepharoplasty

Lower eyelid surgery, also known as lower blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure aimed at removing excess skin, fat bags, and tightening the muscles in the area of the lower eyelids. This procedure is ideal for clients who suffer from sagging lower eyelids, puffiness, or dark circles under the eyes, which can create a tired and aging appearance. At Estetika Plus, we offer professional lower eyelid surgery to help restore a more youthful and fresh look to the eyes.

What is Lower Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)?

Lower eyelid surgery is an aesthetic procedure that removes excess skin and fat bags from the area of the lower eyelids, eliminating sagging appearance and puffiness under the eyes. This surgery significantly improves the facial appearance by removing visible signs of aging in the eye area, such as bags, wrinkles, and dark circles under the eyes. The aim of the surgery is to restore a fresh and rested look without disturbing the natural shape of the eyes.

Who is Lower Eyelid Surgery Suitable For?

If you have visible fat bags under the eyes that create a tired and puffy appearance, lower eyelid surgery is the ideal choice.

Excess skin and wrinkles under the eyes can be removed, improving the overall appearance of the lower part of the face.

In some clients, dark circles under the eyes may be caused by shadowing due to sagging skin. The surgery can help eliminate this effect and give the face a fresher appearance.

How is Lower Eyelid Surgery Performed?

Lower eyelid surgery is typically performed on an outpatient basis under local or general anesthesia and lasts about 1 hour, depending on the extent of the procedure. There are two main techniques:

Classic Blepharoplasty

The surgeon makes an incision just below the lash line or inside the eyelid to minimize scar visibility. Excess fat, skin, and muscle tissue are removed to improve the appearance of the lower eyelids and eliminate bags and puffiness. This technique is ideal for clients with excess skin and significant sagging of the eyelids.

Transconjunctival Blepharoplasty

This approach involves an incision inside the eyelid, meaning scars are not visible. This method is particularly suitable for younger clients who have fat bags under the eyes but do not require excess skin removal.

Benefits of Lower Eyelid Surgery

Youthful Appearance: The surgery significantly improves the appearance of the lower eyelids, removing puffiness, bags, and wrinkles, giving the face a fresher and more youthful look.

Elimination of Tired Appearance: The procedure helps remove the tired expression caused by sunken and puffy lower eyelids.

Natural Results: With modern techniques, scars remain minimal, and the results look natural without disrupting the natural shape of the eyes.

Recovery After Lower Eyelid Surgery

After the surgery, it is common for the eyelids to be slightly swollen, and bruising may occur around the eyes, which typically resolves within a few days to weeks. Clients are advised to rest and keep their heads elevated for the first few days after the procedure to minimize swelling. Cold compresses can also help reduce swelling and speed up healing. Sutures are usually removed after 5 to 7 days. Most clients can return to their normal activities within 4 to 7 days, but physical exertion should be limited for a few weeks.

Results and Long-Term Effects

The results of lower eyelid surgery are long-lasting and typically visible immediately after the bandages are removed. The eyes will have a naturally lifted shape and position, significantly improving the overall appearance of the face. Scars are usually hidden behind the eyes and fade over time.

As with any surgical procedure, certain risks exist, such as infection, bleeding, changes in sensitivity, asymmetry, or problems with eyelid closure. However, at Estetika Plus, we use modern techniques and emphasize maximum care and safety to minimize these risks and achieve optimal results.
