Puffiness of the eyelids or drooping of the eyelids, which can be due to skin and muscle laxity, and can also be due to the protrusion of eye fat. One of the problems of facial beauty is that it usually becomes clear from the age of 30 onwards. Cosmetic surgery of the eyelids is one of the available methods to eliminate drooping and puffiness of the eyes.
The correction method is different in the lower and upper eyelids. In the upper eyelid, the excess and loose part of the skin and muscle and sometimes the protruding fat of the eye are removed and the puffiness of the eyelid is corrected.
In the lower eyelid, if we have protruding fat, this excess fat should not be removed like the old method, because it causes hollowing and deformity of the eye, so the new method of correction is to place the protruding fat in a new place below the eye, where we have a skin depression. Therefore, both the unwanted protrusion of the eyelid is corrected and the indentation of the skin under it is corrected.
The important thing to note is that every puffiness of the eyelid should not be surgically treated, and the condition of the eyebrows should be considered first.
If we have eyebrow drooping at the same time and the cost of eyelid cosmetic surgery is covered, but the eyebrow droop is not corrected and we only operate the eyelid droop, it does not help the patient significantly, and in these cases, we must first perform eyebrow lift surgery and then correct the remaining amount of eyelid puffiness. .
