What is Eyelid Surgery / Blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, is a surgical procedure aimed at eliminating excess skin from the eyelids. As people age, the eyelids tend to stretch and the muscles that support them weaken, leading to the accumulation of excess skin and fat above and below the eyes. This can result in sagging eyebrows, droopy upper eyelids, and under-eye bags. The solution to these issues is often eyelid surgery, which is a relatively short procedure lasting between one and three hours.

During the operation, excess skin and/or fat are removed from the upper and/or lower eyelids to produce a more refreshed and youthful appearance. If you’re looking for a clinic that specializes in blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery, visit the clinic from Galway.

How do we treat it?

Using the natural skin creases of the eyelid, an incision can be made to remove excess skin and fat tissues, resulting in discreet scars. Excessive skin on the upper eyelid can lead to functional issues, such as peripheral vision loss in the outer and upper regions. Lower eyelid surgery addresses “bags” and extra skin to improve the appearance of the eye.

Blepharoplasty not only restores the natural beauty of the eye, but also enhances visual field by removing excess skin and fat, leading to a smoother and more youthful appearance, as well as reduced fatigue. Additionally, chemical peels or laser treatments may be used during the surgery to improve skin healing and appearance.

What are the Benefits?

Blepharoplasty can restore both the natural beauty of the eye and your visual field. By removing excess skin and fat, the eyelid can look smoother and more youthful, while also improving peripheral vision and reducing associated fatigue. Additionally, during the surgery, chemical peels or laser treatments may be employed to optimize the healing process and improve the appearance of your skin.
