Blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty is eyelid correction performed through surgery. The procedure involves removing excess skin around the eyes. The same operation is performed if it is necessary to remove or redistribute areas of adipose tissue, so-called hernias. Eyelid surgery is a safe procedure that allows you to prolong youth and eliminate the signs of aging around the eyes.

Indications for blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty is recommended when:

  • Upper eyelid droops
  • There are bag-like formations or excess adipose tissue
  • Skin droops in the outer corners of the eyes
  • Pronounced folds of skin are observed in the corners or in the lower part of the eye
  • There is a desire to change the cut or shape of the eyes
Indications for blepharoplasty

Possibilities

  • Get rid of excess skin around the eyes
  • Eliminate bags under the eyes
  • Perform an eyelid lift
  • Lift the outer corners of the eyes
  • Modify the cut, as well as the shape of the eyes

Contraindications

There are no contraindications, except for:

  • The presence of dry eyes when the outflow and formation of tears is impaired
  • Acute or chronic diseases that are inflammatory (conjunctivitis, chalazion)

Types of eyelid surgery

There are several types of eyelid surgery, each of which is suitable for a specific case, depending on the structure of the face and other individual characteristics of the patient.

Upper eyelid blepharoplasty

Over time, age-related changes are observed. They are expressed in the form of sagging skin of the upper eyelids, which negatively affects the eyebrow line area. This often leads to a narrowing of the field of vision and increased eye strain. In order to eliminate such manifestations, upper eyelid surgery is performed, which allows you to remove excess skin and raise the eyebrow line to the desired level. It is more effective to carry out such an operation and additionally a forehead skin tightening procedure.

Lower eyelid blepharoplasty

Correction of the lower eyelids is carried out to eliminate bag-like formations under the eyes, as well as pronounced folds or excess skin. The choice of method for this type of blepharoplasty depends on individual characteristics. If you need to get rid of swollen “bags” under the eyes, which can lead to the appearance of deep wrinkles, and even young people face this problem, then in this case a decision is made to perform transconjunctival plastic surgery. This procedure involves making a micro-incision in the inner area of ​​the lower eyelid. This procedure does not require stitches. Complete healing of the incision occurs within 24 hours after the operation. Regarding the removal of excess skin, lower eyelid surgery is performed in the same way as upper eyelid blepharoplasty.

Circular blepharoplasty

This is a more complex and lengthy lift of both the upper and lower eyelids. It is done in several stages and should be performed by a professional doctor, as it is more difficult than other types of plastic surgery. It allows you to eliminate the maximum number of problems that bother the patient at one time.

Transconjunctival blepharoplasty

With this type of plastic surgery, the doctor uses a special method, making micro-incisions on the inside of the eyelid. This allows you to hide traces of surgery, i.e. does not interfere with the aesthetic appearance. Another advantage of such eyelid surgery is the minimal chance of complications.

General information

Preparation and operation

Preparatory procedures include:

  • Diagnostics that will identify individual characteristics and possible contraindications;
  • Pre-operative preparation carried out by doctors and medical staff.

Patients receive detailed information about preparatory and postoperative procedures from the staff of the Plastic Surgery Department of our clinic. They will answer all your questions, give recommendations and tell you what is possible and what is not possible before and after plastic surgery.

Blepharoplasty is performed under local anesthesia. In some cases, complete pain relief is possible through intravenous anesthesia. The procedure lasts from 50 minutes to 1.5 hours. During blepharoplasty, surgeons at our clinic use precision technology, which makes it possible to optically enlarge the operated area. This allows you to perform the procedure with high precision, apply the thinnest sutures, which become almost invisible after 1.5 months.

Recovery

The recovery process depends on individual characteristics. To make this process happen more quickly, it will be necessary to follow some postoperative recommendations.

Possible complications:

  • Harmless subcutaneous hemorrhages that disappear after about a week. The risk of such consequences is higher in smoking patients
  • The appearance of hypertrophic scars in the area of postoperative sutures. This complication is often caused by the individual skin tendency of a particular patient

The period for complete recovery is 1.5 months. This time, as a rule, is enough for a scar to form and the swelling that occurs after the procedure to disappear. Practice shows that repeated eyelid surgery may be required only after about 7 years. If desired, you can perform the procedure several times. But repeated surgery is performed only if there are medical indications. How soon you will need eyelid correction again depends on your health, lifestyle, and bad habits.

Security

Blepharoplasty is a common operation performed by plastic surgeons around the world. At Clinic +31 it is performed by experienced doctors from the Department of Plastic Surgery, who are highly qualified to ensure 100% safety of the operation. They can perform any cosmetic surgery on the eyelids and correct any imperfections that bother the patient.

The technique used, specifically designed for performing eyelid surgery, allows sutures to be placed with high precision and accuracy. In this case, very thin suture material is used. Traces from the operation completely disappear after 1.5 months!

Recommendations

The first signs of aging in men and women appear already by the age of 30-35 - wrinkles, drooping of the upper eyelid, bag-like formations under the eyes. To eliminate such age-related manifestations, it is recommended to perform blepharoplasty of the lower and/or upper eyelids. A similar procedure can be performed and at a younger age. Plastic surgery specialists today use modern technology that allows them not to harm the orbicularis oculi muscle, makes it possible to ensure rapid healing after surgery, as well as to avoid the formation of rough scars.

Answers to popular questions

At what age can eyelid surgery be done?

There is an opinion that blepharoplasty should be done after the onset of age-related changes. However, patients of any age resort to it, for example those who are dissatisfied with the shape of the eyelid purely from an aesthetic point of view.

Is it true that an eyelid lift changes the shape of the eyes?

Only if this was the original purpose of the operation.

Is this surgery suitable for men?

Yes, of course. Eyelid surgery is performed by both men and women.

Are there any scars left after a facelift?

This type of plastic surgery involves the use of small incisions, the traces of which become invisible over time and do not spoil the patient’s beauty.

I was admitted to the clinic with carcinoma. I am happy that I ended up in the hands of Ivan Aleksandrovich. A very competent, attentive to the patient, and most importantly - an honest doctor. I received answers to all my questions and was offered several options for subsequent plastic surgery. The doctor came personally for dressings, after discharge I could always ask questions at subsequent dressings. If you have a choice and have the opportunity to go to Ivan Aleksandrovich - know that you are in reliable and good hands.

I had surgery in this clinic with Mitoyan Ruzanna Yesaievna, the doctor made an impression from the first appointment. During the consultation, everything was explained in detail about how it goes, what is needed for the operation to take place, and what recovery is like. I received very competent answers to all my questions, I compare with other clinics where I consulted, they wanted to impose such a feeling more than anything else. I really liked her delicacy, attentiveness, charge with calm and confidence. On February 22, 2024, I had upper blepharoplasty, the operation went perfectly, the postoperative period was easy, I followed all the recommendations and no problems arose, there were almost no bruises or swelling and everything healed very quickly. I want to express my deep gratitude to you for your professionalism and light hand! I was delighted with my eyes! It’s been a long time since my look has been so fresh and not overweight. And another miracle that you did - you saved all my colored permanent makeup on my eyelids!

Many thanks to Galina Telnova. Great professional. In December 23, I had my eyes done (bottom, top), I was terribly afraid that my appearance would change, that something would go wrong. Everything went perfectly. Attentive nurses. Galina Sergeevna inspires with calmness and confidence. Very grateful. I like myself very much. If I decide to undergo any more plastic surgery, only go to Galina Sergeevna Telnova.

I had breast shape correction and abdominoplasty done at K+31. After the operation, I spent only 3 days in the ward, after which I went home and recovered at home. I waited about two months for complete healing. The clinic (West) has excellent staff, friendly attitude

Many thanks to plastic surgeons K+31! All my life I suffered from back pain due to the constant load on the spine... Finally, at the age of 45, I decided to have a breast reduction. Within a week, the swelling went down and I finally had small breasts. The rehabilitation period passed as quickly as possible and without complications.

The augmentation was done in early autumn with round Mentor implants. I wanted to achieve the maximum effect and I was right. The breasts are firm, soft and beautiful, the seams are not visible. +100 to confidence. If you want a more natural effect, the doctor may suggest teardrop-shaped implants.

The doctor was in touch, the rehabilitation period was easy.

Ruzanna Yesaievna made the most pleasant impression on me even during the consultation. She explained everything in detail about the operation, anesthesia options, and rehabilitation. After the consultation, we set a date for the surgery. The operation itself went well, there were no complications. Although I planned to spend the night under observation, I went home because I felt good. It is now 9 days after surgery. There was no pain from the word at all, not a single seam came apart. Now the healing is progressing at its own pace, without causing me any discomfort. And the result is already incredibly pleasing! Ruzanna Yesaievna is a tough professional who does her job with love. I am very glad that I ended up with her. Choosing a surgeon is a rather difficult process. Based on my experience, I can confidently recommend Ruzanna Yesaievna.
