Eyelid Lift Surgery at Clinica Sabah

Many women seek to improve the appearance of the eyes and eyelids to obtain a more youthful and vibrant appearance due to sagging skin that can impede vision or to obtain a certain eyelid shape after they get older and sagging and loss of skin elasticity occurs, which requires surgical intervention in the areas where these signs appear to correct visual problems and keep up with aesthetic standards. Therefore, they resort to performing an eyelid lift operation that aims to remove sagging and excess skin to achieve an attractive aesthetic appearance, which ultimately leads to increased self-confidence and improved appearance of the eyelids and face.

What is Eyelid Lift Surgery?

Eyelid lift surgery is a procedure designed to improve the appearance of the upper or lower eyelids by removing sagging skin and excess fat. In some cases, muscles are adjusted and surrounding tissues tightened. This surgery can be performed for medical reasons (to improve vision) or cosmetic purposes to achieve a younger, more refreshed look.

Eyelid surgery, also known as eyelid surgery, offers many benefits to people who want to do it and suffer from sagging eyelids or puffiness around the eyes. Here are some of the main benefits:

These benefits make eyelid surgery a suitable option for those who want to improve the appearance of their eyes and face, reduce the effects of aging and enjoy a more youthful appearance, but it is important to consult a specialist plastic surgeon to evaluate your health condition and determine whether this procedure is suitable for you and to ensure achieving the best possible results.

What happens during an eyelid lift?

During an eyelid lift, our specialized surgeon performs several steps to improve the appearance of the upper and lower eyelids. He begins by anesthetizing the patient first with local anesthesia in the eye area, and general anesthesia can also be used depending on the patient’s condition. He then makes precise surgical incisions in the eyelids. For the upper part of the eyelid, the incision is made in the natural crease of the eyelid to hide scars. As for the lower eyelid, he makes a surgical incision under the lower lash line or inside the eyelid to remove excess fat or redistribute it to reduce swelling and sagging under the eyes. After that, the surgeon cuts the skin that causes wrinkles, especially in the upper eyelid, and tightens the muscles and tissues surrounding the eyelids to achieve a harmonious and tight appearance. After completion, the surgeon closes the incisions using fine surgical sutures and special skin adhesives.

Then the patient needs a period of rest and special care to reduce swelling by following the doctor’s instructions and regular follow-up to achieve the best results and avoid potential complications.

What is the aftercare after eyelid surgery?

There is no doubt that aftercare after eyelid lift surgery is very important to ensure proper healing and obtain the desired results. We offer you the most important instructions and tips for aftercare:

It is recommended to rest as much as possible during the first days after surgery, and avoid strenuous and sporting activities for at least two weeks.

You can use cold compresses on the eyes to reduce swelling during the first 48 hours after surgery for 10 to 15 minutes every hour according to the doctor’s recommendations.

You should keep your head elevated when sleeping using additional pillows to avoid any swelling or swelling.

It is necessary to take care of the cleanliness of the wounds and avoid touching or scratching them.

Your doctor may recommend using ointments or eye drops to help with healing.

Avoid direct exposure to sunlight and use sunglasses when going out to protect the wounds from pigmentation.

Adhere to the doctor’s instructions regarding taking prescribed medications such as painkillers, and follow the follow-up schedule specified with the surgeon to ensure that the healing process is being checked.

These are some tips to help you recover and obtain the results you expect, but the basic step in aftercare is to follow your doctor’s instructions regularly and attend follow-up appointments to evaluate your condition and check For any problems or infections.
