A small outpatient operation – and you look like a different person. As if you were suddenly many years younger. Eyelid lift surgery has long been popular, and for good reason. How the operation works and what it does for your self-confidence in the long term: Nothing makes our face look more awake and fresh than a flawless eye area. And nothing achieves this result faster than a surgical eyelid lift at UNIQAESTHETICS®. Depending on your wishes, the correction can be performed on the upper or lower eyelid. In everyday cosmetics, eye creams, face masks and professional-looking massage techniques often promise relief for sagging, drooping eyelids. But to be honest, they can’t really help. For a lasting youthful result, eyelid correction is usually essential. Eyelid surgery is nothing more than the removal of excess skin around the eye area. This excess skin is a completely natural sign of ageing, but can also be exacerbated by stress, inflammation and genetics. It is therefore important to find a remedy early on.
Minor intervention with long-term effects
Surgical tightening of this sagging skin is preferably performed on the upper eyelid to remove drooping eyelids and restore a youthful appearance. On the lower eyelid, it is usually bags under the eyes that worry those affected. The bonus of the operation: the results last between ten and 15 years. And the procedure can be repeated at any time afterwards. The surgical eyelid lift is also known as a bepharoplasty in specialist jargon. At UNIQAESTHETICS®, patients also have the option of choosing the type of anesthesia that is most comfortable for them. Depending on the patient’s preference, the operation can be performed under general anesthesia and under the supervision of an experienced anesthetist or under local anesthesia only. Nothing more than a small scalpel is then required for the actual surgical correction. The excess skin on the upper or lower eyelid is removed through a small incision. During the procedure, unwanted fat or muscle tissue can also be removed as required. The wound is then sutured with a very thin thread below the surface of the skin. Super practical for surgical correction of the upper eyelid: the very thin scar line can be hidden almost imperceptibly in the posterior eyelid crease. At the outer corner of the eye, the scar protrudes minimally from the so-called fold, but afterwards it disappears naturally into the smile lines. As soon as the post-operative swelling and bruising have subsided, the uninformed layperson will hardly notice that the procedure has taken place at all. All unanswered questions can be clarified in a non-binding consultation. The treating surgeon can also get a precise picture of the eye area.
