What is Blepharoplasty surgery?

Blepharoplasty is a plastic surgery procedure that corrects eyelids' defects, deformities, and disfigurations and helps improve the face's aesthetic appearance by enhancing the eye region. It is surgical repair or reconstruction of an eyelid that improves baggy or droopy upper eyelids. It involves removing excess skin, muscle, and fat and making your eyes appear younger. Aging takes a toll on your facial appearance, including the eye region, and makes the eyelid droopy or baggy. It looks odd when a patient starts noticing bagginess from the lower eyelids as it can decrease your self-confidence, and you begin avoiding meeting people in public. However, blepharoplasty surgery is a rescue if you are concerned about the facial appearance and want to look younger and presentable. Blepharoplasty is also called an eye lift procedure.

Besides making you look older, severely sagging skin around your eyelids can decrease your side vision. And so Blepharoplasty has functional benefits also as eyelid surgery can eliminate these vision problems and make your eye more alert.

The top vital points to know about Blepharoplasty are as follows:

·        The best candidates for blepharoplasty surgery have a healthy medical status and realistic expectations.

·        Eyelid surgery helps remove signs of ageing that are prominent around your eyes.

·        It removes the upper eyelids' sagging skin and excess fat that interferes with your peripheral vision.

·        It removes excess skin on the lower eyelids and bags under your eyes.

·        You may undergo blepharoplasty surgery simultaneously as another surgery, such as brow lift, facelift, or skin resurfacing.

Why Should you undergo Blepharoplasty surgery?

1.     Droopy or saggy eyelids are your concern.

 You might consider Blepharoplasty if droopy or saggy eyelids keep your eyes from opening completely or pull down your lower eyelids. Droopy eyelids can make you look older, and you may lose your self-confidence. Thus, it is a type of eye rejuvenation surgery known as eye lift that removes excess tissue from your upper eyelids, improves the eye region, and makes your eye area younger and more alert.

2.     You are experiencing interference in peripheral vision.

Excess skin of the upper eyelids caused by ageing interferes with your peripheral vision. Depending on the complexity, Blepharoplasty surgery is performed after a thorough evaluation by your plastic surgeon. Your plastic surgeon will check your eyes and recommend either or both of the upper and lower eyelids surgery to correct the eyelids' defects, deformities, and disfigurations.

3.     You will have tighter, brighter, and more open eyes in the mirror.

Blepharoplasty improves your self-confidence by bringing back the younger appearance of your eyes. You start noticing that your eyes are lifted, and you see a tighter, brighter, and more open eye in the mirror. The results are often subtle but striking. You'll look rested, more alert, and of course, younger and natural than earlier.

Conclusion:

Overall, we can say that eyelid surgery or Blepharoplasty is also a part of a facial rejuvenation procedure that can be combined with other procedures, such as facelift, brow lift, or skin resurfacing, depending on the extent of the problem state. Eyelid surgery is a serious cosmetic procedure, so it's crucial to review everything about the procedure before scheduling the operation. And only expert board-certified plastic surgeons are allowed to perform the Blepharoplasty as it demands high skills and experience in the field to meet the desired outcomes successfully.
