Blepharoplasty for a Natural and Youthful Appearance

Another facial rejuvenation procedure frequently chosen by patients is blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery). The first signs of aging become visible in the eyelids. This becomes an undesirable appearance for most people. In addition, excess skin, fat deposits, and puffiness in the eyelids can make a person look more tired than they actually are. With blepharoplasty, excess tissue is removed from both the upper and lower eyelids to achieve a more vibrant and rested appearance.

What is Blepharoplasty and Who is it Performed on?

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a plastic surgery procedure that aims to improve the appearance of the eye area. This improvement generally includes:

• Removing excess skin from the upper eyelids,
• Removing fat protrusions from the lower eyelids,
• Removing under-eye bags.
• It is an effective surgical procedure.
• It offers comprehensive solutions for the eye area, particularly the eyelid region.

It is a highly effective solution in the following cases:

• Feeling tired during the day due to the weight of the eyelids,
• Inability to apply makeup properly to the eyelids,
• Persistent puffiness in the lower eyelids,
• Premature sagging of the eye area due to aging or genetic factors.

In some patients, excess skin on the upper eyelid can even affect vision. In this case, functional improvement beyond aesthetics is achieved.

Blepharoplasty Surgery and Its Scope

To achieve the best results, it is important to clearly understand all stages of blepharoplasty. Each stage of this process is important and affects the results. During the preparation phase, Dr. MFO and his team meet with patients for a preliminary consultation and plan the process. Possible risks and potential outcomes are evaluated. In addition, the surgeon gives the patient the necessary instructions and explains the important points in detail. Then the date of the procedure is set.

The procedure is usually performed under general anesthesia. An incision is made in the upper eyelid within the natural crease and in the lower eyelid at the lash line. These incisions are planned so as not to leave visible scars. Excess skin is removed, and fat tissue is rearranged if necessary. The surgery takes approximately 2–3 hours.

Recovery Process

• There may be slight bruising and swelling in the first few days.
• Stitches are removed within 5–7 days.
• Most patients return to work within a week.
• The final result appears within 3–4 months.
• Blepharoplasty performed with gentle techniques provides a very natural and youthful appearance without creating artificial tension around the eyes

What You Should Know Before Deciding on Blepharoplasty?

Before deciding on blepharoplasty, it is particularly important to know the following:

• If excess skin on the upper eyelid obstructs vision, it also provides functional benefit.
• Pain is generally minimal; most patients describe only a slight pressure sensation.
• In Turkey, if it causes functional problems (such as narrowing the field of vision), it may be partially covered. However, most cosmetic procedures are not covered by insurance.

Conclusion

Blepharoplasty and other procuders are performed on areas that may seem small but significantly affect facial harmony. The success of the surgery depends not only on surgical technique but also on the correct analysis of facial proportions and the adoption of an approach that preserves naturalness.

With proper planning and personalized design, these two procedures offer natural, feminine, and balanced results that improve the overall expression of the face.
