Quote of Dr. Handan Şimşek Turan
Upper eyelid blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to correct issues with the upper eyelids. This can involve removing excess skin, fat, or muscle to improve both function and appearance. It’s often performed to address signs of aging, such as drooping or sagging eyelids, or to correct functional problems that may affect vision.
Consultation: You'll meet with a surgeon to discuss your goals and medical history. They'll assess your eyelids, discuss potential risks, and outline what to expect.
Anesthesia: The procedure is usually done under local anesthesia with sedation, but general anesthesia might be used in some cases.
Incision: The surgeon makes small incisions along the natural folds of the upper eyelids. This placement helps hide any scars.
Removal and Adjustment: Excess skin, fat, and possibly muscle are removed or repositioned. The goal is to create a more youthful, alert appearance.
Closing the Incisions: The incisions are closed with sutures, which may be dissolvable or need to be removed later.
Recovery: After surgery, you may experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort. Ice packs and prescribed medications can help manage these effects. Most people return to normal activities within a week or two, but full recovery can take several weeks.
Results: The results should become evident as swelling and bruising subside. The procedure typically provides a more youthful and refreshed appearance and can last many years.

You might consider getting a blepharoplasty surgery if you have droopy eyelids, bags under your eyes, excess skin on your upper or lower eyelids. Excess skin of the upper eyelids might partially block your vision, apart from the cosmetic problems it causes.
During eyelid surgery, the following happens: Anesthesia Sedation or general anesthesia is applied before eyelid surgery. Your doctor will recommend the best option for you. General anesthesia is preferred more for the comfort of the patient. Thus, the patient does not feel any pain during the operation. Incision The incision lines for eyelid surgery are opened in such a way that the surgical scars are not easily noticeable. For this, the incision is well hidden within the natural folds of the upper eyelid. This incision allows the removal or reshaping of fatty tissues, tightening of muscles and removal of excess skin.
After the operation, if there is no complications or doctor recommends otherwise, you will be discharged on the same day. The results of eyelid surgery appear in the first week after swelling and bruises subside. After the surgery, patients have a smooth and youthful-looking eyelid and surrounding area.
After the Eyelid surgery, it's recommended to take 7-10 day off from work and do nothing but relax, rest, and begin to recover. Swelling and bruising are unavoidable. Most bruising resolves within 10-14 days. Swelling will start usually 1-2 days after the eyelid surgery but in the first 7-10 days it will resolve quickly.
After about six weeks you will see the final result of your eyelid surgery.
The effect of eyelid surgery is permanent for many years. Under normal conditions, it does not need to be repeated because the outcomes of the surgery countinue for about 10-15 years. However, surgery may be required at very advanced ages.
