Eye surgery, also called blepharoplasty, is a form of cosmetic procedure performed on the skin around the eye to improve the signs of aging, create a more symmetrical aesthetic, or increase the function of the eyelids. Plastic surgery on eye areas can include both upper and lower lids and can boost self-confidence with little fuss.

Eye surgery at a glance

When aging is a factor, skin tends to loosen as collagen production is reduced. Muscles can also weaken and as a result eyelid skin can stretch, causing unsightly folds and even fatty deposits to form. Both men and women may experience sagging eyebrows, droopy upper lids and also bags under the eyes due to the increased weight in the upper eye area.

Issues around the eyes could lead to reduced peripheral vision, so treatment should be scheduled sooner rather than later. Properly performed cosmetic eye surgery can offer a smoother, more youthful look, while improving sight - and as one of the top ten global destinations for cosmetic and medical procedures, eye surgery in turkey can offer fantastic results.  

Eye surgery types

For those considering cosmetic surgery for eye areas, you may want to take a look at some of the services on offer at reputable surgeries in Turkey:

  • Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery)

  • Upper Blepharoplasty

  • Lower blepharoplasty

  • Double eyelid surgery

  • Bilateral eyelid surgery

  • Fox eye (or Asian eye) surgery

  • Transconjunctival eyelid surgery

It may be worthwhile to know that blepharoplasty can be performed alongside other procedures, such as face lifts, brow lifts and skin resurfacing.

In many cases of cosmetic eye surgery, the surgeon will suggest the right type of anesthesia for the procedure and inform you of the methods used and best practices for aftercare. Often, a small incision will be made on the crease of the upper lid or just below the lower lash line to minimise the appearance of scars. From this point, skin, muscles and fatty deposits can be redistributed, repositioned, or removed for the success of the desired surgery. Incisions will then be closed with either glue or sutures (which will need removal in around a week). All eye surgeries are performed on an outpatient basis and may include numbing injections.
