Eyelid Sagging Up – Confidence Up

What is upper eyelid surgery?

As we age, our eyelids tend to sag and wrinkles tend to form around our eyes. Upper eyelid surgery is a surgery that improves sagging eyelids and fine wrinkles by pulling or removing sagging skin and tissue due to aging. It can also reveal or create a double eyelid line that is covered by sagging skin.

It is important to accurately diagnose the cause of sagging eyelids and choose the appropriate surgical method based on each individual’s aging symptoms.

  • Clear eye makeup – Excessive skin is removed and repositioned to create clear and elastic eyes
  • Improved vision – Removes wrinkles around the eyes caused by droopy eyelids to restore obstructed vision
  • Correction of functional problems of the eye – strengthening the power of eye opening by correcting the orbicularis oculi muscle or the levator palpebrae superioris muscle
  • During effect – Corrects sagging eyes and makes elasticity stand out during the effect
  • Small scars and quick recovery – The incision is made toward the eyebrows, so the scars are small, and swelling management allows for quick recovery.

Upper eyelid surgery process

Upper eyelid surgery is performed under local anesthesia at the surgical site, but because it is painful, general anesthesia is performed briefly first. After making a natural incision along the eyelid crease, the sagging eyelid skin and fat inside are removed or repositioned. Since the incision and suture are made along the eyelid crease, scars are barely visible after surgery.

  • 1. Cut after design
  • 2. Remove sagging skin and unnecessary fat
  • 3. Pull the skin and suture it.
  • 4. Post-operative results

Sagging eyelids? Get younger-looking eyes with upper eyelid surgery!

Upper eyelid surgery is necessary for these people:

What causes drooping eyelids? The main causes include aging, genetic factors, lifestyle habits, and muscle weakness.

In particular, as we age, collagen and elastin decrease, skin elasticity decreases, and the function of the levator palpebrae superioris (the muscle that lifts the eyelid) weakens, causing sagging. Therefore, it is recommended to consult with a medical professional and receive appropriate treatment at the right time.

  • People whose vision is obstructed by droopy eyelids
  • People who open their eyes using their forehead muscles
  • People whose double eyelids are covered by drooping eyelids
  • People with swollen eyelids or stinging eyelashes
  • 1. Excess fat
  • 2. Sagging eyes
  • 3. Eye poke
  • 4. Eye tip wrinkles

It is suitable for middle-aged or older people who have sagging eyelids and blurred vision due to aging or who look tired due to fat accumulation around the eyes.

Since the incisions and sutures are made along the crease of the eyelid, scars are barely visible. In addition, over time, scars naturally heal and become barely noticeable.
