Blepharoplasty

Transconjunctival blepharoplasty is a scarless and stitchless technique to remove lower eye bags. It is best undertaken by young people who have a good tone in the lower lid with minimal no skin laxity. It is undertaken through a small incision in the lower lid through which excess fat bulges are removed.

1. Dry eyes which may need tear supplements in the weeks following eye bag removal or blepharoplasty is common.
2. Excess skin removal during upper Blepharoplasty may cause an inability to close the eyes.
3. Some amount of bleeding from the stitch sites is possible, and in very very rare cases, eye bag removal or blepharoplasty may result in loss of vision due to excess bleeding.
4. One caution with lower lid surgery is that if the procedure is performed without proper planning and technique, there is a possibility of a condition called as ECTROPION.

Tarsal Tightening is an add-on procedure done on the lower lid in elderly people who have very loose lower lid margins. The lids have lost tone, as a result, they do not snap back when pulled. Tightening of the tarsal plates or lower lid margin makes it snug.

People with oriental genes usually have excess skin in the upper lid which looks like a double lid and covers the lid margin. They do not have an upper eyelid shelf and cannot use makeup. The Surgical procedure to create this upper eyelid fold and remove the excess fat so that the eyelids can be well visualized is called Asian Blepharoplasty.
