Eyelid Aesthetics


Eyelid lift (blepharoplasty) is a surgical procedure in which excess fat, skin, and muscles are removed from the upper and lower eyelids.

Types of eyes aesthetics

Lower eyelid aesthetics, If the patient has complaints of edema and excess skin in the lower eyelid area, lower eyelid surgery is recommended to the patient.

Lower and upper eyelid aesthetics; If the patient has a tired appearance, excess skin, drooping on both the upper and lower eyelids, lower and upper eyelid operations can be performed simultaneously.

Almond eye aesthetics: Today, one of the most preferred operations is canthopexy operations called almond eye aesthetics. During the operation, the appearance of the lower and upper eyelids is suspended on the upper bone, and the eye structure is transformed into a slanting-looking shape called the almond eye.
