LOWER BLEPHAROPLASTY
Sign up for a visit
Our age, first of all, becomes noticeable on the face — on the thin and sensitive skin around the eyes, on the eyelids. Age-related changes аnd the aging process are most visible especially in this zone. And cosmetics, despite having a slowing effect, do not solve the problem fundamentally!
Lower blepharoplasty: what is this and what defects can be corrected with its help?
Plastic surgery of the lower eyelids will help to effectively remove age changes and get rid of wrinkles under the eyes.
The peculiarity of the lower eyelids is that sometimes, even at a young age, you can observe "bags" under the eyes that do not disappear during the day. The cause is fatty hernias in this area. It happens due to congenital weakness of muscles and connective tissue partitions that fix fatty tissue in places where it protrudes under the skin of the lower eyelids. That is why lower blepharoplasty effectively solves the problem of removing bags under the eyes.
This is a common plastic surgery, the success of which largely depends on the qualifications and experience of the plastic surgeon. Highly qualified specialists of the Genesis clinic in Lviv with many years of professional experience and hundreds of successful operations are ready to help you solve aesthetic problems. Modern equipment and comfortable conditions will make your stay at the Genesis clinic as painless and pleasant as possible!

HOW LOWER EYELID PLASTIC SURGERY LOOKS LIKE AT GENESIS CLINIC?
- Blepharoplasty of the lower eyelids is often combined with blepharoplasty of the upper eyelids and a face lift. Since in older patients we often observe a sagging of the middle area of the face, accordingly, this area can be lifted simultaneously with a lift of the lower eyelids.
- Lower eyelid plastic surgery is performed under local or general anesthesia (gas anesthesia). According to the previously applied marking, the plastic surgeon makes an incision in the skin on the eyelid. Having gained access through the circular mAuscle of the eye, the doctor proceeds to remove the hernia under the eye. Subcutaneous fatty tissue is redistributed and fixed in the right places with absorbable sutures. Excess fatty tissue is carefully removed.
- Next, after assessing the degree of excess skin and the circular muscle of the eye, the surgeon carefully removes it, thus removing deep wrinkles and smoothing the skin in this area. If necessary, the plastic surgeon can pull part of the circular muscle back and sew it to the periosteum of the eye socket, thus strengthening the lower eyelid.
- At the final stage of the operation, the circular muscle of the eye is sewn up with absorbable sutures, and the skin of the lower eyelid is sutured with cosmetic sutures.
POSTOPERATIVE PERIOD AND REHABILITATION AFTER LOWER EYELID LIFT
- Patients should follow all the eye care recommendations of the doctor, as well as come to the clinic for a check-up.
- After lower eyelids plastic surgery, there is almost no pain. Sutures are removed 4-5 days after the operation. Swelling subsides after about 5 - 7 days, hematomas disappear within a week or two, it is individual for each patient. After 3 - 6 weeks, the swelling disappears completely.
- After two months after a well-conducted operation, only a specialist can notice traces of lower blepharoplasty. Since the skin in the eyelid area is extremely thin and well supplied with blood, small incisions heal very quickly, leaving no scars. In addition, the natural folds of the skin of the lower eyelid mask the scar and it becomes almost invisible.
The final effect of the operation can be seen after six months. We will invite you to the Genesis clinic so that you can compare your pre-operative photos with the final results!
