What should you pay attention to when going for eyelid surgery?

Upper Eyelid Surgery Services: Who Should Consider It and What Are the Costs?

Q: How much does eyelid surgery cost?

Currently, the price for eyelid surgery at Dr. Eye ranges from 8,000,000 to 12,000,000 VND (depending on the method).

Q: Does eyelid surgery leave scars?

Eyelid surgery is a procedure that primarily affects the outer skin tissue of the eye area. Therefore, the wound typically heals quickly and does not leave noticeable scars, as they are very fine and located in the eyelid crease, making them difficult to see.

Double eyelid surgery is a safe and effective cosmetic procedure that addresses the issue of uneven double eyelids, monolids, or hidden eyelids. When performed at a reputable clinic, women can quickly achieve beautiful, symmetrical double eyelids, enhancing the depth of the “windows to the soul” and creating an attractive allure for those around them.

What is double eyelid surgery?

Double eyelid surgery is a procedure that involves making a small incision in the upper eyelid to reshape the eyelid fold for a balanced and natural appearance. This method is becoming increasingly popular due to its relative simplicity and the long-lasting results it offers.

Who should perform it?

Individuals who should undergo eyelid surgery include:

Clients with monolids, double eyelids.
Clients with uneven double eyelids, featuring multiple folds.
Clients with droopy eyelids due to excess fat and sagging skin in the upper eyelid fold.

In general, eyelid surgery is the optimal solution to correct issues related to excess fat and sagging skin in the eyelid folds. During the procedure, removing excess skin from the upper eyelid fold and extracting eyelid fat will help create clear and even eyelid folds. This will make the eyes appear larger and more defined, enhancing the overall attractiveness of the face.

Benefits of Eyelid Surgery

Creates two distinct and symmetrical eyelid creases, enhancing the appearance of the eyes by making them look larger, sharper, and more appealing.

In addition to creating beautiful and symmetrical eyelid creases, eyelid surgery effectively addresses excess fat and skin on the eyelids.

Ensures safety without affecting vision. The procedure is quick, with minimal recovery time required.

The eyelid creases are long-lasting, potentially permanent. Scarring is minimal, with very faint scars that are difficult to notice.

Eye Surgery Procedure

Step 1: Comprehensive examination of the eye area and consultation on suitable methods

The doctor examines the area around the eyes, identifies regions with excess fat, and provides recommendations for appropriate corrective methods.

Step 2: Explanation and visualization of treatment results

Dr. Eye designs the eyelid crease accordingly and presents it to the client in advance to help visualize the expected results, ensuring peace of mind for the treatment.

Step 3: Health assessment and testing

The client will undergo a general health examination by the doctor, including inquiries about medical history, allergies, and necessary tests to ensure health and safety before proceeding with treatment.

Step 4: Detailed measurements based on the chosen treatment method

The doctor determines the position, measures, and outlines the eyelid crease according to standard ratios and the client’s preferences.

Step 5: Disinfection and local anesthesia of the eye area

The doctor disinfects the eyelids to minimize the risk of infection or complications post-surgery. Then, anesthesia is administered to ensure the client experiences no discomfort or pain throughout the procedure.

Step 6: Surgical procedure

The doctor performs eyelid surgery by removing excess fat and sagging skin, creating a balanced new eyelid line. Afterward, cosmetic sutures are used to close the incision, ensuring safety and minimizing the appearance of unsightly scars.

Step 7: Post-surgery care and follow-up

The client will rest at the clinic or return home after the procedure. The doctor will schedule a follow-up appointment after 5 days and provide guidance on how to care for the eyelids at home following surgery.

Possible Complications

In some cases of eyelid surgery at untrustworthy cosmetic facilities, women may encounter some unwanted complications such as:

The eyelid crease may be unclear or lost.

The eyelid creases on both sides may be asymmetrical, with one crease larger than the other, or one side may be elevated.

The eyelid may be cut too deeply, leading to drooping eyelids, which can affect both aesthetics and vision.

The eyelids may be elevated, making it difficult for women to close or open their eyes as they did before the surgery.

The eyelids may experience bruising, swelling, or develop unsightly raised scars after recovery.

However, these complications can be effectively managed and minimized if clients undergo treatment at a reputable cosmetic facility with a team of experienced specialized doctors.

Notes for Successful Treatment

Before Eyelid Surgery

Choose a reputable cosmetic facility: This is a crucial factor for successful eyelid surgery. Clients should select a licensed clinic with experienced doctors and positive reviews (from friends, family, or online sources).

If experiencing chronic conditions (high blood pressure, diabetes, etc.), clients need to inform the doctor immediately for appropriate guidance.

Reasonable diet: Drink plenty of water, increase the intake of protein-rich foods (pork, tofu, grains, cheese, etc.), and foods high in vitamin A (papaya, carrots, tomatoes, etc.) to promote quick healing of the wounds.
Careful sun protection: After eyelid surgery, clients should avoid direct sunlight by wearing sunglasses or applying sunscreen when outdoors.
Adjust habits: Clients should avoid heavy eye makeup and refrain from aggressive makeup removal, limit rubbing the eyes, and develop a daily eye cream routine, etc.
