The main contraindications are acute or chronic inflammation and infectious processes. Also, the intervention is not carried out against the background:
- Serious diseases of the circulatory system
- Endocrine disorders
- Malignant neoplasms
- Mental disorders
The presence of acute diseases of the visual organs, for example, conjunctivitis, as well as fresh injuries to the eyelids or eyeballs, requires postponing the procedure until complete recovery and recovery.
Blepharoplasty is also contraindicated for women during menstruation. This is explained by the fact that during this period hormonal levels change and tissue sensitivity increases - against this background, there is a risk of increased swelling and bleeding.
Blepharoplasty with an incision (open method) is the most traditional and common technique. In this case, the surgeon makes an incision in the eyelid through which excess tissue is removed. Next, a new fold of the upper eyelid is formed.
Blepharoplasty without an incision (closed method) is a less invasive method. In this case, special threads are used to form the fold, which do not leave noticeable marks on the skin.
The choice of method depends on the individual characteristics and wishes of the patient, as well as on the recommendations of the surgeon.
Preparatory period
The process begins with a thorough preoperative examination. Specialists assess your health status and identify possible contraindications.
In addition to medical preparation, the patient is also advised to listen to the doctor's instructions regarding lifestyle changes before surgery. In particular, he should stop smoking and taking certain medications that can affect blood clotting and the healing process.
Recommended medical examination includes:
- Consultations with specialized specialists (therapist, ophthalmologist, anesthesiologist) This allows you to exclude contraindications and assess your overall health.
- Laboratory tests This includes a general and biochemical blood test, as well as testing for infectious diseases (HIV, hepatitis).
- Functional studies (ECG and fluorography) They provide information about the functioning of the heart and the condition of the lungs.
General information about the procedure
Procedure
Blepharoplasty of Asian eyes is performed under local anesthesia. Also, at the request of the patient or in accordance with the doctor’s recommendations, it is also possible to use general anesthesia.
The surgical procedure includes several key steps:
- Formation of the supraorbital fold. At this stage, the doctor creates a natural fold on the upper eyelid. There are two methods: non-invasive suture and more complex with an incision. The choice of method depends on the individual characteristics of the eyelid structure and the desired result
- Epicanthus correction. The doctor carefully reshapes the eyelid and removes excess tissue
- Removal of fatty tissue. This step is optional and is performed only in cases of “fat hernias”
The duration of the operation usually takes from 1 to 1.5 hours - it depends on the complexity and volume of the manipulations performed.
