Advanced Eyelid Rejuvenation for Brighter Eyes, Youthful Expression, and Improved Visual Comfort
Eyelid Surgery, also known as Blepharoplasty, in Istanbul at Avicenna Hospital is a highly effective procedure designed to rejuvenate the eye area by addressing sagging eyelids, under-eye bags, and excess skin. This treatment enhances facial harmony while maintaining natural expression, helping patients achieve a refreshed and more youthful appearance.
At Avicenna Hospital, Blepharoplasty is performed using advanced surgical techniques and a patient-focused approach. The goal is not only aesthetic improvement but also functional benefits in cases where drooping eyelids interfere with vision. With experienced surgeons and modern facilities, patients can expect precise results, smooth recovery, and long-lasting outcomes.
🩺 What Is Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)?
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that improves the appearance of the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both by removing or repositioning excess skin, fat, and muscle. It is commonly performed to correct signs of aging around the eyes, including drooping eyelids, puffiness, and under-eye bags that create a tired or aged look.
During the procedure, carefully placed incisions are made along natural eyelid creases or inside the lower eyelid. This allows surgeons to remove or redistribute fat deposits, tighten muscles, and eliminate excess skin while minimizing visible scarring. The approach is tailored to each patient’s anatomy and desired outcome. In addition to cosmetic enhancement, Blepharoplasty can provide functional improvement when excess eyelid skin obstructs peripheral vision. By restoring proper eyelid structure and contour, the procedure enhances both aesthetics and comfort. Results are typically long-lasting and designed to look natural, not overdone.
🩺 Types of Gastric Bypass Procedures
• Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty – Removes excess skin and fat from the upper eyelids to correct drooping and restore a more open, alert appearance
• Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty – Targets under-eye bags and puffiness by repositioning or removing fat while smoothing the lower eyelid contour
• Combined Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty – Addresses both upper and lower eyelids in a single procedure for comprehensive eye rejuvenation
• Transconjunctival Blepharoplasty – Performed through the inside of the lower eyelid, this technique avoids external scars and is ideal for fat removal without excess skin
• Functional Blepharoplasty – Performed to improve vision when sagging eyelid skin interferes with the visual field
