What is blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty removes excess skin from the upper eyelids and sagging of the lower eyelids. The eyelid lift treatment is often followed by a brow and forehead lift (browplasty) to enhance the result of the blepharoplasty.

An eyelid lift in Dubai is one of the standard plastic surgery procedures performed in Dubai. Excess skin on the upper eyelid obstructs vision by removing excess fat pads, and the eyelid is corrected so that it drapes properly over the edge of the eye. Eyelid lift treatment is extremely rewarding for people with drooping eyelids, as it can achieve a youthful, rejuvenated look.

Blepharoplasty in Dubai is a permanent solution to correct eyelid problems. Blepharoplasty is mainly performed for cosmetic reasons, but it can improve vision in older people whose vision is impaired by sagging upper eyelids.

Diagnosis

Many people opt for a face or neck lift, but a simple, safe blepharoplasty can have an amazing effect. When excess upper eyelid skin is removed, the impact is dramatic. The cost of blepharoplasty depends on the type of eyelid lift.

Possible causes

With age, the production of elastin and collagen decreases considerably; collagen is the basic element that maintains the structure of the skin. Elastin keeps the skin supple. The more these two proteins diminish, the more the skin loses its firmness, sagging and drooping. Blepharoplasty involves removing excess fat from the upper eyelid and reducing sagging of the lower eyelid.

Signs and symptoms

Consult a surgeon in Dubai to find out if it’s time for a blepharoplasty. If the skin above the eye is swollen and sagging, or if the bag under the eye is prominent, then it’s time to remedy the situation. The upper eyelid can block vision, and the lower eyelid can droop, exposing the white of the eye, so blepharoplasty solves all these problems and restores self-confidence.

How does the procedure work?

In eyelid lift surgery, excess fat or muscle is removed from the skin. If there is a prominent pocket under the eye, it is corrected by a tiny incision.

Who needs blepharoplasty?

Most people experience sagging eyelids after the age of thirty-five, but some people with genetic factors may experience symptoms earlier.

Consult a surgeon

Once the patient has decided to get rid of the malice of clogged eyelids, call the surgeon to make an appointment. Express your goal and your reasons for opting for blepharoplasty in Dubai, so that the doctor can go a step further. The surgeon will assess your current state of health, review your medical history and explain the types of eyelid lift surgery available, the risks and potential complications.

Preparation before surgery

Someone must accompany the patient, take them home and stay during the blepharoplasty. Some patients suffer from dry eyes after the operation, which generally disappears within two weeks. Ice packs, ice cubes, clean towels and gauze pads should be available at home. Patients are advised to stop taking aspirin and other anti-inflammatory drugs, as this increases the risk of bleeding.

What you need to know

• Duration of the operation
  Blepharoplasty generally takes about two hours if both eyelids are operated on simultaneously. Patients may experience discomfort, pain and a black eye after the eyelid lift. Swelling and bruising will remain for a fortnight, and the sutures will be removed after five to seven days.
  
• Recovery time
  After blepharoplasty, the sutures will remain in place for one week. Bruising and swelling are common symptoms after eyelid lift surgery, but normality returns after a week or two. The healing process varies according to the patient’s immune system.
  
• Anaesthesia
  In Dubai, eyelid lift surgery can be performed safely under local anaesthetic, twilight anaesthetic or general anaesthetic. Local anaesthetic is administered in the specific area where the operation is to be performed. The upper eyelids become numb and remain so throughout the operation.
  
• Hospital stay
  Blepharoplasty is generally performed on an outpatient basis. An ointment is administered to the eyes to keep them moist, combined with cold compression while the patient is in recovery. As a result of the cream, vision becomes blurred and sensitive to light.

Risk factors

Complications and undesirable results are very rare following blepharoplasty. Bleeding, infection, dry eyes, pigmentation of the eyelids, loss of vision and the inability to close the eyes completely are the rarest complications that occur following blepharoplasty. If any of these complications arise, the patient should consult the surgeon as soon as possible.
