Blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty is the surgery of the eyelids. With normal ageing process, the skin and muscles lose its strength over time. The skin being thinnest around the eyes, it is the first to show these signs. This results in increased creases around the eyes, and eyelids become droopy. Also, as the muscle starts to lose strength and it is unable to hold the fat in place. This fat, in turn, starts to collect under the eyes causing UNDER EYE BAGS or Puffy eyes. Blepharoplasty is done to improve the look of the eyes in all of these cases. In case of droopy eyelids, excessive skin is removed, and for under eye bags, the fat deposits are removed. There is no visible scar, once stich line is healed Also, if needed, excessive skin can be removed. It is also done for double eyelid creation or Asian Blepharoplasty.

Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty

Upper lid blepharoplasty is a type of eyelid surgery that’s carried out under local or general anaesthesia, and involves an incision in the natura crease of the upper eyelid Via the incision, Mr Neeraj will remove a small amount of fat if necessary and any excess skin can be excised. At Rejuvenaids, we tend to remain conservative with how much fat is removed, as the removal of too much fat can lead to a hollowed-out appearance of the upper eyelid. Consequently, this can actually end up causing an aged appearance, rather than the youthful aesthetic that is the primary objective of this surgery. Once the eye lid surgery has been completed, the skin is closed with very fine sutures and in time the scar will fade to be barely visible.

Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty

In Lower Eyelid Surgery, the incision is placed inside the eyelids. It is the pink part of your lower eyelids(conjunctiva), just inside the lash line. A protective covering is placed above your eyeballs, and hence, your eyes will be perfectly safe during the surgery. The excess fat, or the eyebags are then removed, giving you the smooth under eye area. In case, there is excess skin in the lower eyelids as well, then it is also removed. This is done by placing the incision around 2 mm below lash line, and hence, after healing, there will be no visible scar

The Lower Blepharoplasty surgery removes the fat bags under eyelids permanently. This fat is removed entirely, and hence provides with near permanent results.

In upper eyelid blepharoplasty, the excess skin is removed. This provides for a much youthful and fresh appearance to your face. The results will last usually for 10-15 years. Longevity of results can be increased by keeping the area well moisturized and applying sunscreen regularly. This will delay the natural ageing of your skin.

The eyelid surgery is recommended in the following circumstances:

Baggy under eye area

Eyelid skin wrinkling

Puffiness under the eyes

Tired looking eyes

Drooping eyelids, or hooded eyelids

Deep tear troughs

Baggy eyelids with sagging skin

Blepharoplasty is a minor surgical procedure, and the recovery is very smooth. The patient is free to perform normal daily activities, though, should avoid heavy manual activities. There will be some swelling and bruising in most of the patients, however, it usually resolves within 5-7 days’ time. You can get back to work after the swelling subsides. You can also use make-up to cover up the under-eye bruising.

Asian Blepharoplasty, which is commonly known as Double Eyelid Creation surgery or Sliver Blepharoplasty is the procedure used to create a crease or fold in the upper eyelids where it is not present naturally. This is usually seen in certain Asian communities, and hence the name. In this procedure, a tiny sliver of tissue is removed from the upper eyelids, which upon healing, gives rise to the eyelid fold or double eyelids.
