Eyelid Correction (Blepharoplasty)
in Turkey with medicalfly
Eyelid corrections or in another words Blepharoplasty is a cosmetic surgery which is designed to remove the excess skin, fat or muscles from the upper or lower eyelid. Although it is mostly considered as an aesthetic surgery; it also helps the patients who have visual difficulties when the sagging skin closes the eye partially. The removal of this tissue improves the vision.
Blepharoplasty surgery in Turkey is one of the most popular procedures within the plastic & aesthetic surgeries. Many men or women decide to have blepharoplasty easily since the duration of the operation is not very long and the outcomes are beneficial both in aesthetic and functional means.
In patients’ words, blepharoplasty (eyelid corrections) in Turkey also gives the patients a younger, fresher and a “glancing” appearance.

Informations
While the anatomical structure of the upper and lower eyelids is different, the aim of this procedure is nearly the same for both. The goal is to remove the excess skin or if present fat tissues, while repairing the muscles is also targeted. The fat pads under the eyes or in the lower eyelids are also removed with incisions or laser devices in order to give the patient a younger and fresher appearance. During some procedures, the operation can be combined with eyebrow lifts, face lifting or mini facelifting and fat injections around the eyes.
The operation is mostly performed under general anaesthesia however, in some cases, local anaesthesia can also be used.
For upper eyelids, the surgeon makes the cuts along the fold in the eyelids and the excess skin & fat is removed from this area. The incisions are placed within the crease and will not be visible after the surgery when the tissue is healed.
For the lower lid, the cut is made below the eyelashes in the eye’s natural crease. The excess skin and fat is removed from the area and the incision is closed.
