Eye bag removal is a procedure that removes excess fat, skin, and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. Eye bag removal, which corrects sagging upper lid skin and lower lid bags, does not completely remove crow’s feet and eyelid wrinkles, nor does it eliminate dark circles under the eyes or lift sagging eyebrows. Upper and lower blepharoplasty can be performed separately or together. Blepharoplasty is also often performed in conjunction with other facial cosmetic procedures, such as a face lift or brow lift. Blepharoplasty can significantly improve the appearance of your eyes. Patients with conditions such as hypothyroidism, inadequate tear production, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, retinal detachment or glaucoma are generally not candidates for blepharoplasty. The surgical incision for the upper lid is located in the area of the heavy lid crease; the lower lid is located at the lower edge of the eyelashes and may extend laterally to the outer crows feet of the eye. Through these incisions, the skin is separated from the muscle and fat, excess fat is removed, and excess skin and muscle are trimmed. Finally, the incisions are closed with very fine sutures. Some younger patients with only lower eyelid bags and more elastic skin can have the fat removed via the conjunctiva of the lower lid so that no surgical marks are left on the outside. The eye is often lubricated with eye ointment and wrapped with a small strip of gauze after surgery, but it does not prevent seeing. After recovery from anesthesia, the eyes may feel sore and painful. Avoid lowering your head and moving around too much for several days after surgery. Local cold compression on the day of surgery may reduce swelling and bruising, and the line is folded 5 days after surgery. Strenuous exercise should be avoided for several weeks after surgery, especially exercises that raise blood pressure such as body bending, weight lifting and other strenuous exercises.
