What is Eyelid Aesthetics?
Non-surgical eyelid aesthetics is an innovative method that aims to reduce sagging and wrinkles around the eyes without surgical intervention. This technique allows you to achieve a more youthful and dynamic appearance without surgical risks and long recovery periods. By using various technologies, excess skin and bags on the eyelid are reduced.
One of the most commonly used methods is Plasma Energy (Plasmapen) treatment. Plasmapen increases collagen production by targeting the tissues under the skin, without damaging the skin surface. This process allows the eyelids to tighten and the skin to regain its elasticity. Plasmapen treatment is performed by applying local anesthetic cream and is usually completed in a short time. Slight redness and crusting may occur after treatment, but these will disappear within a few days.
Another method is laser treatments. The laser penetrates the lower layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and tightening skin tissue. Laser treatment is also performed under local anesthesia and the recovery time after the procedure is quite short.
Non-surgical eyelid aesthetics is an ideal option especially for people who do not want to have a surgical procedure, but are disturbed by the signs of aging around the eyes. These methods offer effective results in a short time and make it possible to achieve a younger appearance without interrupting daily life.
How is Eyelid Aesthetics Done?
Eyelid aesthetics is a surgical intervention performed to eliminate signs of aging and sagging around the eyes. This process makes the eyelids look younger and more vigorous. In upper eyelid aesthetics, excess skin and fatty tissue on the eyelid are removed, giving the eyelid a tighter appearance. The incisions are made along the natural eye lines, making the scars almost invisible.
In lower eyelid aesthetics, the aim is generally to eliminate bags and wrinkles. In this procedure, incisions are made on the inside of the lower eyelid or at the eyelash line, excess fatty tissue is removed and the skin is tightened. Both procedures are performed under local anesthesia and the patient's comfort is prioritized.
After the operation, patients can usually return to their daily lives within a few days. Swelling and bruises usually decrease within a week and the eye area gains a more natural appearance. Eyelid aesthetics not only eliminates aesthetic concerns, but also improves the quality of daily life by expanding the field of vision.
Who is Eyelid Aesthetics Suitable for?
Eyelid aesthetics is an ideal solution for people who want to eliminate sagging, bagging and wrinkle problems around the eyes. Sagging and bagging may occur in the eyelids over time due to advancing age, genetic factors and environmental effects. This may make the person look more tired and older than they actually are. Eyelid aesthetics eliminates these problems and gives a younger and more vigorous appearance.
Eyelid aesthetics can be applied to eliminate aesthetic problems occurring in both the upper and lower eyelids. Individuals who experience sagging, deep lines and excess skin formation in the upper eyelid can have a tighter and younger eye area thanks to this procedure. People who have problems such as bags, bruises and wrinkles in the lower eyelid can achieve a smoother and fresher appearance with eyelid aesthetics.
This aesthetic intervention is suitable for anyone who is in good general health and does not have a serious eye condition. Although it is generally preferred by individuals aged 35 and over, it can also be performed at younger ages depending on genetic factors. Apart from aesthetic concerns, eyelid aesthetics can also be performed to eliminate sagging that narrows the visual field and negatively affects daily life.
Healing Process After Eyelid Aesthetics
Non-surgical eyelid aesthetics allows the eyelids to gain a more youthful and dynamic appearance with minimally invasive methods. The healing process after this procedure is very fast and comfortable. It is possible to return to daily activities immediately after treatment. Mild swelling and redness will disappear on their own within a few days. It is important to be gentle with your skin and follow recommended care routines during the healing process.
After non-surgical eyelid aesthetics, you can notice the rejuvenation and revitalization effects around the eyes in a short time. The most important point to consider in this process is to completely follow the instructions recommended by your doctor. Treatment results become more successful and permanent with regular check-ups.
When Are Eyelid Aesthetic Results Seen?
Eyelid aesthetic results usually begin to become apparent 1-2 weeks after the procedure. It may take 2-3 weeks for swelling and bruising to completely disappear. It may take approximately 1-2 months for complete healing and final results to appear. In our clinic, our patients are informed about the time required to see the best results and the recovery process is monitored regularly. Each individual's recovery process may be different, so a personalized approach is taken and support is provided.
Eyelid Aesthetics Before and After Care Recommendations
Proper care practices before and after non-surgical eyelid aesthetics optimize treatment results and accelerate the healing process. Before the procedure, the skin around the eyes should be clean and makeup-free. Reducing alcohol and smoking use at least one week before the procedure improves blood flow and supports skin health.
After the procedure, a slight swelling and redness may occur around the eyes. In this case, applying a cold compress provides relief. Rubbing or scratching your eyes can negatively affect the healing process. Using sunglasses to protect the eye area supports healing by protecting the skin from the sun's harmful UV rays.
After eyelid aesthetics, regularly using moisturizer and care products recommended by your doctor helps the skin heal in a healthy way. Attending follow-up appointments on time ensures that the treatment process is followed and possible complications are prevented.
Is Eyelid Aesthetics Permanent?
Non-surgical eyelid aesthetics is a procedure performed with minimally invasive methods and its results generally provide long-lasting effects. However, the permanence of this process may vary depending on the person's aging process, genetic factors and lifestyle. Generally, the results remain effective for several years, thanks to increasing collagen production in the skin and tightening of existing tissue.
To achieve more permanent results, I recommend maintenance sessions at regular intervals. These sessions help the tissues around the eyes maintain their young and dynamic appearance. At the same time, paying attention to a healthy lifestyle and skin care routine supports the permanence of aesthetic results.
How Can We Prevent Eyelid Sagging?
Although eyelid sagging usually occurs as a result of the aging process, lifestyle and environmental factors can also affect this condition. There are various methods to prevent these sagging and maintain the youthful appearance of the eye area.
Especially regular skin care is very important. Using special moisturizing and anti-aging products around the eyes can help maintain skin elasticity. Creams containing vitamins C and E help the skin look firmer and younger. Additionally, using sunscreens with high SPF around the eyes to protect against the harmful effects of sun rays can prevent premature aging of the skin.
