The most sought after are aesthetic procedures and plastic surgeries that improve the appearance of the eye. In the past year alone, more than 200, 000 women and men have undergone eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), and aesthetic rejuvenation procedures are not even to be expected.
What do you need to know for those who want to improve on this part of the face called the classic "mirror of the soul"?
Aesthetic problems around the eyes that need renewal
- Heavy, tired look.
- Discarded eyelids.
- Bags or swellings under the eyes.
- Excessive, wrinkled skin.
Most problems can be successfully remedied with upper or lower eyelid lifting surgery. The goal of plastic surgery is to repair the three main components of eyelid tissue: skin, muscle, and fat. The result is a beautiful eye and a youthful look.
Top Eyelid Rejuvenation
Most patients who visit a beauty clinic complain of severe, drooping upper eyelids, sometimes forming a kind of "hood. "This condition is called ptosis. Eyelid sagging can be congenital or can be caused by injuries, diseases of the nervous system, and even improper administration of Botox.
Before surgery, your doctor will find out the causes of eyelid sagging, allowing you to remove it most effectively. The condition of the eyelid muscles should be considered. If they are weak, they are undergoing cantoplexic or cantoplasty surgery that strengthens muscle structures. They are usually performed in conjunction with blepharoplasty.
During surgery, excess skin and fat is removed, protruding from the depths of the tissues. The technique gives immediate results, improves the contour of the eyelids, makes the look more open, and the face is relaxed and refreshed.
If the soft tissues of the forehead are loose and sagging, eyebrow-raising and forehead correction are included in addition to eyelid lift.
How plastic surgery solves lower eyelid problems
The most common complaints in this area of the face are the bags under the eyes. The skin of the lower eyelid is extremely sensitive and becomes thinner with age. Wrinkles appear under the eyes, similar to crumpled thin paper through which the fat protrudes.
This condition is corrected by lift-lower blepharoplasty. During surgery, excess skin is removed along with the protruding fat. If necessary, the doctor will tighten the stretched muscles.
Compresses (pinches) in patients with a small amount of excess skin, making the contour of the lower eyelid smoother.
In the case of pronounced age-related changes, it is often necessary to operate on both eyelids in order to significantly regenerate this area.
Non-surgical methods for eyelid rejuvenation
In addition to surgery, there are more and more surgeries to improve the appearance of eyelid skin:
- Microneedles- a procedure in which the skin is pierced with tiny needles. As a result, tiny holes remain in it, which the body tries to repair by producing collagen and elastin proteins.
- Chemical peelingwith various natural compounds that rejuvenate the skin and remove wrinkles.
- Laser treatments, stimulate metabolic processes and cause muscle contraction.
- Radio frequency and ultrasound treatmentsthat make skin firmer and smoother.
Operational and non-operational methods of eyelid correction should not be considered mutually exclusive. Both techniques can be used together, organically complement each other and give excellent results.
Correction of nasolacrimal furrows
At the junction of the lower eyelid and the face, there is a nasolacrimal furrow that becomes more noticeable with age. The soft tissues of the face lose their volume and stretch downwards due to the force of gravity. A dark, curved area forms under the eyelid, making the eye look tired and old.
To improve the aesthetics of the zone, the tear duct is filled in several ways:
- Using fillers - fillers that make up for lost tissue.
- By adding fat cells transferred from other parts of the body.
- The condition of the area is improved by non-surgical procedures - microneedles, radiofrequency, ultrasound and laser methods.
Platelet-derived plasma (PRP) injections from the patient are also used. Plasma is rich in growth factors that stimulate skin renewal above the nasolacrimal sulcus.
The beautician will help you choose the combined method, which consists of several complementary procedures.
Characteristics of eye rejuvenation
Upper and lower eyelid surgery can produce immediate, long-lasting and noticeable results. But there is an important nuance to consider when doing these. A lot of nerves and blood vessels pass through this zone, its tissues are very thin and fine. Therefore, surgery can only be trusted by a physician with extensive experience who has experience in performing blepharoplasty.
When performed correctly by experienced plastic surgeons and cosmetologists, the rejuvenation procedure produces excellent results that satisfy patients.
