· Those in Istanbul, Turkey for at least a week.
· Those with baggy under eyes.
· Those with droopy upper eyelids.
· Those who wish to eliminate wrinkles around the eyes.
· Those who wish to look fresher and younger.

The first signs of aging often appear on the eyelids, where the excess skin is collected on the upper eyelids and baggy under eyes observed. Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, is a popular procedure to fix either the upper or lower eyelids, or both, to improve the sagginess and enhance a more refreshed look around your eyes.

· Upper Blepharoplasty
The procedure works by making small incisions in the fold of the eyelid to remove excess skin and muscle tissue; this leaves no visible scar and can be performed with local anesthesia. In some conditions, ideal results can be achieved when combined with a facelift and eyebrow lift.

· Lower Blepharoplasty
Aging causes the fat glands to sag downwards; the procedure helps to lift the fats under the eyes and remove excess loose skin. The incision will be made right under the eyelash.

1. Eyelid condition will be examined
2. Application of local anesthesia
3. An incision will be made to remove excess skin that causes sagginess
4. The remaining tissue will be corrected by lifting and stitching
5. Closing of the incision area with suture
6. Suture is to be removed 7 days after the procedure

Q1: What is the right age for Blepharoplasty?
A1: The treatment is mostly preferred by the ones above age 35, but it is possible for anyone older than 18 years old.

Q2: Can I continue wearing contact lens and glasses after the procedure?
A2: On the day of the treatment, please bring your glasses or sunglasses to avoid irritating the eyes. You can only continue wearing your contact lens after your eyelid has healed, that is when it feels comfortable and can close well. Generally, you can start wearing lenses again about 2 to 3 weeks after the procedure, depending on your condition.

Q3: Will there be any effects on my vision?
A3: The surgery does affect your vision, but it may cause eye dryness since the eyes may not close fully during the recovery period. Please use the lubricating ointment when necessary and follow the doctor's post-care tips to get faster healing.

Q4: Will the swelling after the surgery affect my daily life?
A4: Swelling and internal bleeding may happen for about a week, and then they will gradually subside. Please take plenty of rest during recovery.

Q5: How long will the results last?
A5: The result of this treatment is often long-lasting, about 7 to 8 years, but it may be affected by continuous aging.

Q6: What type of anesthesia is used?
A6: Upper blepharoplasty can be performed with local anesthesia, whereas lower blepharoplasty should be performed under sedation or general anesthesia.
