EYELID SURGERY -
BLEPHAROPLASTY IN DUBAI
As you age, your eyelids stretch more due to the weakening of the muscles that support them. This causes extra fat to accumulate above and below your eyelids. This fat buildup is a factor in sagging eyebrows, visible bags under the eyes, and droopy eyelids.
To reinstate their eyelids, one can opt for Blepharoplasty in Dubai. In this procedure, the extra fat or skin on the upper or lower eyelid is removed while many other problems are treated.
What is Blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery in Dubai, tightens loose muscle tissues and modifies the appearance of the upper, lower, or both eyelids. The goal is to improve the appearance of the eye area and vision that is obstructed by drooping eyelids.
Blepharoplasty is usually performed by plastic surgeons and is considered a relatively safe procedure; Amwaj Polyclinic has proven to be a great option to improve the appearance of the eyes.
What does blepharoplasty in Dubai aim at?
- Skin that is draped over your face and blocks your vision
- Puffiness under bags under-eyes
- Lower eyelid droopiness is a good way to hide extra skin, small wrinkles, and white below the iris.
- Excess fatty deposits that appear as puffiness beneath the eyelid skin loose or sagging skin that folds or disturbs the natural contour of the upper eyelid, which can occasionally impair vision
Ideal candidate for blepharoplasty
People with the following eye-lid issues can go for blepharoplasty in Dubai:
- Age-related or muscle dehiscence-related droopy eyelids that give you a tired appearance
- Sagging eyelids that block your vision
- Your eyelid shape makes you unhappy
- You have noticeable bags under your eyes, puffy eyelids, or both
Types of blepharoplasty
Upper Blepharoplasty – Upper eyelid blepharoplasty entails the repair of the eye-opening muscle, the excision of sagging eyelid skin, and the removal of extra fat.
Lower Blepharoplasty – Lower eyelid blepharoplasty in Dubai helps in the removal of undereye bags by repositioning excess skin and fat and possibly removing it altogether. Additionally, it treats sagging lower lids that may expose extra white space beneath your iris, the coloured circle that surrounds your black pupil in your eye.
Procedure for Blepharoplasty in Dubai
Our best blepharoplasty surgeon in Dubai – Dr. Matteo Vigo, will decide on a procedure and whether you will need
local anaesthesia or general anaesthesia.
Depending on the specifics of the surgery, the procedure varies, but generally, the doctor will:
- Further, excess skin is removed, and extra fat is repositioned or removed
- Make a cut in the skin fold across the eyelid to rectify the saggingness of the upper lid
- To treat the lower eyelid, make an incision beneath (transconjunctival incision) the lashes or inside the lower lid
- The incision of the upper eyelid is made along the eyelid crease, whilst the incision of the lower eyelid is made either inside the lid to avoid external scars or externally below the eyelashes.
- Tighten underlying tissue (such as muscle) with sutures (stitches); if necessary, try to conceal all incisions within natural skin folds and creases, and close incisions with stitches, surgical tape, or tissue glue.
The full procedure for the upper and lower eyelid normally takes around two hours and is done under local anaesthetic with conscious sedation. The normal post-surgery swelling will be gone within two weeks, and the sutures will be removed within seven days.
Expected results
A lot of people discover that blepharoplasty significantly improves their appearance, particularly if they have very loose upper lid skin or noticeable bags under their eyes. The full healing of incision (cut) lines may take up to a year, but your final results will be visible in a few weeks.
Although blepharoplasty can be expected to permanently correct some conditions, you will still experience the signs of ageing.
