With eyes wide open: the most advanced methods for correcting drooping eyelids. Let's talk with experts

In terms of popularity, only breast surgery and rhinoplasty can compete with blepharoplasty. This type of correction provides an excellent opportunity to get rid of a number of defects, restore freshness to the look and even change the appearance. Among all the types of blepharoplasty, plastic surgery for Asian eyes is far from least in demand.

For obvious reasons, this type of correction is in demand among people belonging to the Mongoloid race with characteristic appearance features. With the help of plastic surgery, it is possible to change your appearance, achieve an aesthetic ideal, increase self-esteem and self-confidence, and achieve psychological comfort. The operation is quite simple, has a short recovery period, has virtually no complications and can be recommended for most patients.

Who is the operation indicated for?

First of all, correction is recommended for patients with pronounced Mongoloid features, such as the absence of a supraorbital fold and the presence of an epicanthus. But with the help of surgery it is also possible to remove defects such as drooping eyelids, hernias under the eyes or excess skin. The main indication for surgery is always the patient’s desire to change his features and get rid of self-doubt.

Classic blepharoplasty is mainly in demand among patients aged 45-55 years. But in the case of sangapuri, Asian eyelid surgery, young people aged 18 years and older often turn to the surgeon. Indications for surgery may also include individual anatomical features that interfere with normal life and cause internal discomfort.

Sangapuri is suitable for people with Mongoloid appearance.

Indications for canthoplasty – aesthetic and medical

Canthoplasty, what is it? This is what is called eye shape correction. After a simple operation, your eyes take on the shape you dreamed of. Most often, correction is performed for aesthetic reasons, helping patients achieve the desired appearance.

Aesthetic indications for canthoplasty

  • bulging eyes and drooping corners;
  • desire to change the shape and shape of the eyes;
  • Asian cut, too round eyes;
  • giving the look expressiveness.

Medical indications for correction

  • asymmetry caused by paralysis;
  • birth defects;
  • consequences of injuries.

In addition to aesthetic problems, canthoplasty can solve many medical problems: increase the angle of the ocular incision affected by a burn, relieve congenital narrowing of the incision (blepharomyphosis).

Just one operation - and you get healthy, beautiful eyes that fully correspond to your wishes, so you can look at the world with a new look.

In some cases, eye canthoplasty helps eliminate age-related changes. The outer corners of the eyes are supported by muscles that lose tone over the years; as a result, the skin in this area stretches, wrinkles (“crow’s feet”) appear, and the corners of the eyes droop. Such changes negatively affect a person’s appearance - his look becomes gloomy and sad. Canthoplasty allows you to get the eye shape as at a young age, when the inner and outer corners are located on the same line.

There are many indications for canthoplasty, so at the first stage the patient talks with a qualified, experienced doctor, voicing his wishes.

Clinic El.En. has been performing canthoplasty in Moscow for many years, guaranteeing patients a positive result and safety of the correction. The operation is performed by highly qualified surgeons with extensive experience.

Contraindications

Despite its simplicity, blepharoplasty is a full-fledged surgical intervention, which is performed under anesthesia and has contraindications. You will not be able to get on the operating table if you have severe health pathologies or acute conditions:

  • diabetes,
  • severe arterial hypertension,
  • bleeding disorder,
  • infection or inflammation
  • acute phase of a chronic disease,
  • diseases of the cardiovascular system,
  • autoimmune diseases,
  • oncology.

It is also not recommended to perform surgery on women who are menstruating, pregnant or breastfeeding. Contraindications will also include eye or skin diseases - dermatitis, herpes, dry eye syndrome, conjunctivitis, lesions of the tear ducts and more. After eliminating the contraindication, the operation can be performed. If the condition cannot be treated and eliminated, plastic surgery is impossible.

Seams

Scars after blepharoplasty are no thicker than a “cat scratch” and are located strictly in natural folds.

Complete absence of scars after upper blepharoplasty 3 weeks after surgery. Surgeon - Vasiliev Maxim.

For additional resorption, fractional laser resurfacing of the skin of the upper and lower eyelids is performed 1 month after surgery. As a result, the seam will not be visible even to the most experienced “best friends” without makeup.

Preparatory stage

Preparation for plastic surgery begins with the first consultation with a plastic surgeon. The doctor will issue a list of tests and examinations that must be passed to obtain permission to undergo surgery. These include general tests, biochemical, coagulogram and tests for infections. It is also necessary to determine the blood group and Rh factor. You will need to undergo an ECG and fluorography. A consultation with an ophthalmologist is required. In some cases, additional consultations with other specialists may be prescribed.

After the examination, if there are no contraindications, a date for plastic surgery is set. It is strongly recommended to give up alcohol and cigarettes 3-4 weeks before the date. Completely stop taking blood thinners and hormonal medications within 2-3 weeks. For 1-2 days - do not use decorative cosmetics. The day before surgery, do not eat or drink for 8 hours.

The trust of celebrity patients is one of the best proofs of the “couture” level of skill

Let’s not hide that Platinental surgeons trust their eyes to celebrities and politicians.

We are somehow accustomed to the fact that all stars undergo plastic surgery. But we rarely think that they are not only the most demanding patients. They are also the busiest. Their filming and touring schedule is planned 3-5 years in advance .

Due to lack of time and the nature of the profession, such patients always make 2 strict demands:

  1. the operation should take place without complications and have the shortest possible recovery period,
  2. the operation must provide a long-term result and be done as rarely as possible, because forced downtime can easily ruin a career.

And the stars of politics and business present one more thing.

They are not eager to make public the fact of the anti-aging procedures performed. Therefore, the operations that we perform at Platinental provide the most natural result without the effect of an operated face. Everything looks as if the person began to lead a healthy lifestyle and gets enough sleep regularly .

We are pleased to offer all these technologies to you.

Iskornev Andrey, plastic surgeon.

Eyes are the main factor of attractiveness. They determine how sociable you are, what mood you are in, what mood you are in, whether you are flirtatious or strict, analytical or, conversely, prone to adventurism.

The harmony of the eyes, like all facial features, has its own rules, but the degree of “deviation” from the conventional norm can be much greater than with the shape of the lips, nose or chin.

Despite this, there are strict rules:

— The contour of the lower eyelid should touch the lower border of the iris, otherwise the eyes look round, “fishy”, this is how the eyelid of an elderly person looks. That is why lower eyelid blepharoplasty is a special science, and only a few surgeons are concerned about the stability of the eyelid shape after such an operation.

Regular and fisheye

— The outer corner of the eye should be 2-3mm higher than the inner one. This creates the effect of an almond-shaped eyelid, which on a woman’s face emphasizes the artistry and sexuality of nature.

Regular and almond-shaped eyes

- There should be a small roll of muscle under the lower eyelid (pretarsal roll of the lower eyelid). This should definitely be taken into account when planning lower eyelid blepharoplasty. The surgeon must be able to model this roll of muscle to highlight the youthful shape of the eyelid and the natural result of rejuvenation.”

The pretarsal ridge of the lower eyelid on Kate Middleton, Emma Watts and the model from the Christian Dior show certainly speaks of their youth.

How the operation is performed

Correction of Asian eyelids is slightly different from classic blepharoplasty. There are two correction methods: with and without an incision. In the first method, the doctor makes a small incision on the upper eyelid, removes excess fat and skin, then forms a fold of the eyelid at the site of the incision and applies sutures. Epicanthus plastic surgery is performed and, if necessary, hernias under the eyes are removed.

With the no-incision technique, work is done from the inside of the eyelid. Small sutures are placed on the mucous membrane, with the help of which a fold of the upper eyelid is formed. Epicanthus plastic surgery is also performed. The correction differs from the previous type by a lower risk of complications and a short rehabilitation period. But this technique can only be recommended for slight drooping of the eyelid.

There are two types of techniques for performing sangapuri.

About the method

The developers of iridoplasty (iris plastic surgery) of the eye using the method of implanting an iridolenticular diaphragm were a group of Russian scientists - Yu. A. Bely, D. O Shkvorchenko, A. V. Tereshchenko and S. V. Novikov. The choice of surgical technology for implantation is influenced by the individual characteristics of the patient’s iris. At the same time, the method of surgical intervention used today makes it possible to eliminate previously untreatable clinical manifestations of congenital coloboma and aniridia. In comparison with the operation of implantation of the iridolenticular diaphragm, the technology of closed iris plastic surgery is much safer and is less likely to cause postoperative complications.

Iridoplasty can be a stand-alone surgical intervention or performed as a combination with the removal of synechiae, keratoplasty, phacoemulsification of cataracts and implantation of an artificial lens.

Iris plastic surgery is a particularly complex operation and must be performed by a team of ophthalmic surgeons with special training. The advantage of iridoplasty, performed in a closed, non-traumatic way, is that the intervention is not complicated by secondary postoperative astigmatism, since there are no incisions on the surface of the cornea and the cicatricial changes caused by them do not occur. However, the range of indications for its implementation is very narrow.

Rehabilitation

For quick healing and high-quality results, the patient must follow a number of rules and prohibitions prescribed by the plastic surgeon. These include a ban on sports and physical activity, visiting a bathhouse and sauna, taking a hot bath or shower, as well as a solarium and the beach. For several months you will have to protect your eyes from ultraviolet radiation and wear sunglasses every time you go outside.

To ensure that the stitches heal quickly and are as invisible as possible, it is recommended to adjust your lifestyle and habits. It is advisable to extend the cessation of alcohol and cigarettes for at least a month. To reduce swelling, it is advisable to reduce the amount of salty, hot and spicy foods. In the first week, you should also not expose your eyes to stress: read books, use gadgets, watch TV. You should also not wear contact lenses.

What is the result of plastic surgery?

Contrary to popular belief, a plastic surgeon cannot change the shape of the eyes. But during correction, excess fatty tissue is removed, a fold is formed on the eyelid and the epicanthus is straightened. Taken together, this makes it possible to make the appearance close to European. The eyes visually become more open and larger, the gaze becomes more expressive.

The operation is quite simple, recovery is very fast. You can leave the clinic on the day of the intervention. It will be possible to return to normal life in the near future, provided that the patient strictly follows all the doctor’s recommendations. Complications occur rarely; in most cases they are a consequence of the surgeon’s insufficient qualifications or the patient’s failure to comply with rehabilitation rules. With the right choice of doctor and a responsible attitude towards your health during the recovery period, the effect of the operation will be as high as possible and will last for a long time, ideally for a lifetime.

Features of the postoperative period

4-5 days after blepharoplasty, the previously applied sutures are removed. During the rehabilitation period, bruising may be observed in the first week, and swelling may persist for up to two weeks. Already 7-10 days after plastic surgery, the patient can return to a full life, and the effect of blepharoplasty will be observed from the first days. Being one of the most effective and painless ways to correct your appearance, blepharoplasty will be an excellent tool for achieving your own ideal.

The cost indicated in the price list of leading clinics in Moscow assumes a comprehensive payment for the operation described above + a daily hospital stay with 3 meals a day. Delay in the clinic beyond the established period (including meals) requires an additional payment of 8,000 rubles per day.
