EYELID SURGERY IN DUBAI – THE COMPLETE PROCEDURE

INITIAL CONSULTATION

During the initial consultation, the doctor will discuss any questions or concerns you may have about Blepharoplasty eyelid surgery and the associated risks. During your in-depth consultation, you can see your eyelid procedure results with an advanced system called the Crisalix 3D Imaging software. The 3D image is created with a specialized camera.

THE PROCEDURE

Blepharoplasty in Dubai generally involves removing extra skin or fat from the upper and lower eyelids, thus creating a renewed look and offering the eyes an extra plump and young outlook.

The process is conducted with local sedation and anesthesia. Incisions are always made around natural skin folds and creases to reduce visibility. Once the incisions are in position, extra skin and fat are peeled away, and delicate hems are used to cover the gaps. The “transconjunctival” eyelid surgery deals solely with disposing of excess fat; no stitches are used.

The doctor may apply one of these two surgery techniques:

UPPER EYELID BLEPHAROPLASTY

In upper eyelid surgery, an incision is placed along the natural crease of the upper eyelid & excess eyelid skin and fat are removed to restore the eyelids to a more youthful aesthetic. The upper eyelid muscles are repositioned as necessary, tightening the upper eyelids.

ADVANTAGES

  • Upper eyelid drooping is corrected
  • Improves impairs vision from eyelid ptosis
  • Improves and smooths wrinkles around the eyes
  • No visible scarring

LOWER LID BLEPHAROPLASTY

In lower eyelid surgery, an incision is made below the lash line or inside the eyelid, commonly known as the transconjunctival approach. This incision repositions fat that causes puffiness and tightens the lower eyelid.

  • Improve puffiness around the eyes
  • Improves the appearance of eye bags and chronic fatigue

Bruising and swelling are also normal as the tissues and sensory nerves heal.
