Who Needs/Candidates
Anyone unhappy with the excess mass on their eyelids will greatly benefit from Eyelid surgery. If you are still unsure about your candidacy, look for one or more of the following qualities:
- You have excessively drooping eyelids
- The shape of your eyelids makes you look tired
- The excessive wrinkles and folding skin makes you look aged
- You have trouble reading or seeing due to the excess mass
If you have any of these or similar problems, you may be a suitable candidate for eyelid surgery. If you are close to the decision-making process, you should also know about the factors that make you incompatible:
- Having a bleeding disorder
- Having a skin infection or an active allergy
- Sunburned or otherwise damaged skin
- Skin conditions such as psoriasis or eczema on the eyelids
- Lower skin elasticity than needed to tolerate the procedure
Results to Expect
As soon as after your first session, the folds and extra skin on your eyelids will be removed according to your expectations. As the skin is removed and stitched back, your eyelid surgery will naturally result in more lifted and sharper eyes. Patients also see significant improvement in the under-eye area and the surrounding skin due to the lift. If you have lumpy and folding skin, your eyelids will also feel much lighter and free of wrinkles and sagging skin. As you heal over time, any wrinkles and creases you have will also become visibly smoothened out, giving a more youthful appearance.
Treatment Goals
Eyelid surgery helps with fixing a wide range of cosmetic and skin concerns. One of the main reasons people undergo Eyelid Surgery in Rawalpindi/Islamabad is to have more appealing, shaped, and lively eyes. The removal of excess skin can lift up your other eye features, which the patients like. It is also the only choice of treatment when the eyelids have excess skin, fat, lumps, or folds to the extent that topical creams cannot fix.
Preparation/Pre-Op Care
Preparation is an important part of any cosmetic surgery. Because the health of your skin will play an important role here, keeping your skin free from any irritants and sun damage is essential. Here are some of the things you will be required to avoid before your
Eyelid Surgery in Rawalpindi/Islamabad:
- alcohol consumption for at least two weeks
- smoking for at least one month
- taking blood-thinning medications such as Warfarin
- Going under the sun without sunscreen
- Undergoing any treatments that may increase skin sensitivity
Treatment Steps
There are many different approaches a cosmetic surgeon can take when completing your eyelid surgery. There is the option to either remove the fat or redistribute it throughout the eye. Besides this, removing the fat isn’t always the approach. If your eyelids are particularly creasy and have folding skin, then only the excess skin and some tissue will be removed.
On the other hand, lumpy and heavily puffy eyelids will require some amount of fat removal or redistribution. These are some of the common steps involved in a typical
Eyelid surgery in Rawalpindi/Islamabad:
- For the upper eyelid, your surgeon will make a horizontal incision that follows along the curves of your excess mass. The fat will be detached and removed, or the excess skin will be cut off with the help of a specialized device. This will naturally lift the eyelids and make them more arched and lively.
- For the lower eyelid, a similar incision will be made on the outside skin. However, depending on the individual eyelid profile, an internal incision may be made for deeply rooted fat.
- All incisions are then closed with medical sutures, and the patient can leave shortly after.
Recovery/Post-Op Care
After your
Eyelid surgery in Rawalpindi, you may experience some level of bruising and swelling around the treated areas. It’s important to give your eyes as much rest as possible. Keeping your eyes free from straining activities such as watching too much television, reading, or phone use. Here are some of the activities your surgeon will ask you to avoid:
- Irritating the treated areas and healing incisions
- Touching, rubbing, or pressing on the treated areas
- Allowing moisture or sweat to sit on the eyes and face
- Going under harsh sunlight without a proper hat or sunscreen
- Intensive sports activities for at least three weeks
- Taking any blood-thinning medications or NSAIDs
