Blepharoplasty is an eyelid surgery that corrects excess skin and/or fat of the upper or lower eyelids. This eyelid operation can be performed alone or simultaneously with a rhinoplasty or a lower facelift.
Blepharoplasty is indicated in cases of:
The main cause of drooping eyelids is age with the accompanying skin laxity. But age is not necessarily a criterion for surgery; heredity is an important factor to consider. Some patients have drooping eyelids as early as 30 years old or significant bags under the eyes from a young age.
Before opting for blepharoplasty, it is important to follow some preoperative instructions to optimize the operation’s results:
Blepharoplasty can be performed on the lower or upper eyelid. It is called additive when it treats general volume loss under the entire orbital region.
Different types of blepharoplasty exist, each addressing different issues:
Drooping eyelids weigh on your eyes, hinder your vision, and close your gaze. Discover upper blepharoplasty with Dr. Lyor HANAN.
Upper blepharoplasty or eyelid lift is a surgical procedure that aims to correct drooping eyelids. This surgery removes excess skin and fat from the eyelids, rejuvenating the gaze. It is a relatively simple and quick procedure that provides satisfactory results.
Skin laxity that pulls under your eyes, bags, and dark circles are easily treatable with lower blepharoplasty.
Lower blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that reduces bags under the eyes. It can also be combined with a lower eyelid lift to remove excess skin from the lower eyelids. This surgery mainly aims to correct drooping eyelids. It can be performed alone or in conjunction with upper blepharoplasty.
Additive blepharoplasty is indicated for patients showing signs of skin aging. This operation involves injecting micro doses of fat to fill the sunken eye area.
Additive blepharoplasty, called lipofilling or lipostructure of the eyelids, involves concealing aging marks around the eye by adding fat taken from the thighs or knees. This new technique restores volume to the eyelids, giving them a younger appearance. This technique is often complementary to upper blepharoplasty to treat a hollow eye simultaneously.
Book A ConsultationBlepharoplasty is an eyelid operation performed under local or general anesthesia. It lasts about 45 minutes under local anesthesia for upper blepharoplasty and 2 hours for combined upper and lower blepharoplasty. If both upper and lower surgeries are planned, it is generally done under general anesthesia. If you wish, and after discussion with your practitioner, eyelid surgery can be performed simultaneously with another aesthetic operation such as rhinoplasty or lower facelift.
The procedure of blepharoplasty is simple: during the operation, excess skin and/or fat is removed from the upper or lower eyelids. Sutures are then made and removed after 7 days.
The postoperative course of blepharoplasty is generally not very painful, and the side effects are temporary. You may experience some bruising and swelling around the eyes that usually disappear in 1 to 2 weeks. It is important to follow Dr. Lyor HANAN’s instructions to promote good healing.
Additionally, it is essential to:
The results of blepharoplasty are visible immediately after the procedure and improve over the weeks. Indeed, the scars are generally very discreet and gradually fade. The results of blepharoplasty are permanent: you will regain a more awake and rested gaze.
Book A ConsultationDark circles appear as a dark area under the eye due to a hollow under the orbit. Bags, on the other hand, form a swelling under the eyes due to excess fat.
Blepharoplasty is always performed under anesthesia, so no pain is felt.
Depending on the surgery performed, the incision is made in the upper eyelid crease or inside the lower eyelid. In both cases, the scars are invisible.
The only contraindications are severe eye pathologies (ocular hypertension, cornea graft, etc.)
