How the blepharoplasty refreshes the face OR blepharoplasty It has been one of the most popular interventions of modern plastic surgery over time, due to its impressive effects on the whole face.
“It is distinguished among the first in demand of modern plastic surgery, and is also one of the first time interventions to choose to make women and men on their face compared to other aesthetic facial surgeries. Of course, this is not a coincidence, nor any coincidence, but it is due to the very unique features of the surgery, as they are imprinted on its application by its specialized surgical hands, “Christos Megapanos Plastic Surgeon, Director of B ‘, says of the blepharoplasty, Metropolitan General Clinical and Reconstructive Surgery and continues explaining what we would like to know about blepharoplasty:
Why blepharoplasty?
The reasons why blepharoplasty is constantly emerging in a “queen” of aesthetic facial interventions, and even maintains a huge appeal to the male population, are varied:
- The skin in the area of eye It is extremely sensitive and fragile, so it is almost always the first to show signs of aging, such as peripheral wrinkles, loosening of eyelids, “bags” and tired and heavy look of the eyes, and often from several young ages
- Elephant surgery is considered an operation with very natural results and almost invisible incisions, and requires very mild and short recovery. The whole process is performed under local anesthesia, and – always with the nature of the work – returning to it in a few days. This makes it particularly dear in the male population, which in no way wants to make the plastic surgeon intervened, but it does not want difficult reserves that deprive time in everyday life and work.
- The renewal, which is evident and immediate, is not limited to the eye area. Eyes open, relaxation disappears, gaze recovers his youthful tension, bags They are eliminated, but the result captures the whole face in a more youthful and fresh image, in a very natural way
- Blepharoplasty solves any problem of reduced visionwhen this results from a high fall of the upper eyelid, either due to age or for construction at young age
What are the most up -to -date techniques?
Today, as in all the interventions of modern plastic surgery, in the blepharoplasty common ground it is the perfectly personalized and natural effect. The basic techniques are upper blepharoplasty and lower blepharoplasty. These two techniques can be applied individually, and only to one eye, depending on the problem, but it is usually recommended to be accomplished for an even more natural and integrated effect.
Upper and Lower blepharoplasty: What should you know?
The upper blepharoplasty occurs with an incision in the natural aspect of the eyelid, from which the excess skin and fat is removed, if coexisted, responsible for the heavy and tired image of the eyes.
Lower blepharoplasty is performed with an incision either through the eyelid, if only removal or redistribution of locally accumulated fat responsible for the “bags”, or just externally on the eyelash line, if the skin is removed at the same time.
The incisions are essentially invisible, since they are hidden by the physiology of the eye itself, and progressively disappear, as the eye area is characterized by good blood and high healing. In cases of men with very relaxation and bags that reach low in the sides, the surgery can be done through intra -omatic incision, so it stays there forever.
A very important development in blepharoplasty interventions with advanced technology is the application of Laser Cut. It is a technique that uses the special scalpel laser to make the required incisions, resulting in both reduced bleeding, as the laser “cuts” and “burns” at the same time, which causes slight haemostasis and slight tightening of the tissue, as well as increased accuracy in the position and nature of the incision.
Is there non -invasive blepharoplasty?
“Depending on the case and its needs, non -invasive alternatives can often be proposed to recover the eyelids, which can even have very good results and prolong the need for surgery for a long time. In any case, the plastic surgeon is the one who will propose the solutions appropriate for our case, ”concludes Mr Megapanos.
