EYELIDS
- Reasons to have this surgery:
- Excess skin in the upper eyelid area leads not only to a restricted field of vision, but also to heavy eyes and rapid fatigue. The eye area appears prematurely aged and gloomy. So-called „baggy eyelids” have the same effect and often result in rapidly drying eyes.
- The surgical technique:
- For upper eyelid surgery, we use the delicate, natural line of the skin fold. The tender scar through which excess skin and fat is removed later wears off. The bulging fatty tissue is removed or relocated from the eyelid area via a fine incision and the droopy musculature and eyelid area is subsequently stabilized using specialized suture technology. The skin resection is then performed.
- Procedure:
- The procedure lasts between 30 to 60 minutes and is an outpatient surgery performed under local anaesthetic or twilight sleep. The eyes should be chilled for the first few days. The thin stitches are removed after one week.
-
- Before every surgical intervention there will be a detailed and individual consultation.
