Blepharoplasty

As we age, many of us may notice changes in the eye area, specifically sagging skin and fatty bags on the upper eyelids. In aesthetic surgery, we refer to this phenomenon as "dermatochalasis". The solution to this problem is blepharoplasty, a surgical procedure aimed at revitalising the eye area. It can help you achieve a more youthful appearance and, in some cases, improve your vision. In the following lines, you will learn more about this procedure, its benefits and how it can contribute to your overall self-esteem.

What is blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure to remove excess skin and fat from the upper eyelids. The result is a younger, fresher appearance and improved vision in patients who have had a limited field of vision due to excess skin.

Who is this procedure suitable for?

Upper eyelid plastic surgery is suitable for those who:

Experience heaviness of the upper eyelids.
Feel tired eyes due to excess skin.
Have experienced impaired peripheral vision due to excessive skin laxity.

How does the procedure work?

At MediEsté Clinic, we strive to make each patient feel like the best version of themselves and each eyelid procedure is individually tailored to the patient.

Blepharoplasty Procedure:

1. A consultation with your doctor to ensure all your needs and wishes are met.
2. Use of local anesthesia.
3. Removal of excess skin and fat.
4. Closing the incision with fine sutures to minimize scarring.

Postoperative care and recovery:

After the procedure, it is important to rest for a few days and limit physical exertion. Most patients can return to normal activities after a few days. Swelling and bruising around the eyes should subside within one to two weeks.

At MediEsté Clinic, we believe that everyone deserves to feel great. Upper eyelid plastic surgery may be just the key. If you have additional questions or would like to learn more about this procedure, please do not hesitate to contact us.
