Upper Blepharoplasty

Upper eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure aimed at removing excess skin, fat bags, and tightening the muscles in the area of the upper eyelids. This procedure is ideal for both women and men who suffer from sagging eyelids, which can cause a tired appearance, limited visual field, and an overall aging look to the face. At Estetika Plus, we offer professional upper eyelid surgery to help you achieve a fresher and more youthful appearance, improve your vision, and boost your confidence.

What is Upper Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)?

Upper eyelid surgery is an aesthetic procedure that removes excess skin, fat bags, and muscle tissue from the area of the upper eyelids. This procedure helps not only to improve the aesthetic appearance of the face but also to eliminate problems with tired-looking eyes and limited vision caused by excess skin falling over the eyes. The surgery is often a choice for clients who want to look fresher and rejuvenated but also for those who suffer from functional vision problems due to sagging eyelids.

Who is Upper Eyelid Surgery Suitable For?

If you have excess skin on your upper eyelids that causes a tired appearance, eyelid surgery can help you achieve a younger and fresher look.

Fat bags in the eyelid area can create a heavy and puffy appearance, which eyelid surgery effectively addresses.

For clients who have limited visual fields due to sagging eyelids, the surgery can significantly improve vision function.

How is Upper Eyelid Surgery Performed?

Upper eyelid surgery is typically performed on an outpatient basis under local or general anesthesia, depending on the individual needs and preferences of the client. The procedure usually lasts about 30-40 minutes. During the surgery, the surgeon makes an incision in the natural fold of the upper eyelid, which minimizes scar visibility. Then, excess skin, fat, and muscle causing the sagging appearance are removed. The incisions are then gently closed with stitches.

Benefits of Upper Eyelid Surgery

Upper eyelid surgery significantly rejuvenates the eye area, giving the face a fresh and rested appearance.

For clients who have limited visual fields due to sagging eyelids, the surgery can greatly improve vision and quality of life.

Thanks to the placement of the incision in the natural fold of the eyelid, scars remain minimal, and the results look natural without disrupting the natural shape of the eyes.

Recovery After Upper Eyelid Surgery

After surgery, it is common for the eyelids to be slightly swollen, and bruising may occur around the eyes, but these symptoms typically resolve 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. It is also recommended to regularly apply cold compresses and avoid physical activity and lifting heavy objects for several days. Sutures are usually removed after 5 to 7 days. Most clients return to their normal activities within a few days.

Results and Long-Term Effects

The results of upper eyelid surgery are long-lasting and often last many years, depending on genetic factors and the client's lifestyle. The final appearance of the eyelids is visible after a few weeks, once the swelling subsides and the scars begin to fade. The eyes will look more open, fresh, and rested, contributing overall to a more youthful facial appearance.

As with any surgery, there are certain risks, including infection, bleeding, dry eyes, asymmetry, or changes in sensitivity in the eyelid area. However, at Estetika Plus, we use modern techniques and emphasize maximum safety for every procedure to minimize these risks and achieve the best results.
