The eye area is the first place where the signs of aging, which occur as a natural process in our body, can be observed. The eye area is the area that attracts the most attention on the human face and therefore the change can be observed most clearly.
Observed around the eyes; Conditions such as wrinkling, bagging, bruising, dark images and streaking may occur for various reasons. The resulting problems around the eyes cause the person to look sleepless, tired, unhappy and therefore look older.
What are the Reasons for Aging Occurring Around the Eyes?
We can list the causes of aging around the eyes as follows:
-Advancing age; It can cause wrinkles, bags and bruises around a person's eyes. The skin around the eyes, which has the most sensitive and thin structure in the body, reveals the effects of aging in an observable manner due to its structure.
-Skin type; The skin structure that a person has congenitally and genetically may be weaker against the negative effects of time and may cause observable signs of aging around the eyes.
-Genetic factors; A person may be more prone to aging due to his/her genetic structure, and this situation may manifest itself clearly in the eye structure, eye skin structure or facial structure.
Symptoms of aging occurring around the eyes, other than the reasons mentioned above; It can also occur due to the influence of various factors such as smoking, unhealthy diet, lifestyle, standard of living.
Basic Assessment for Eye Contour Rejuvenation
Signs of aging should not be considered independently of the entire facial structure. The face is a whole and the signs of aging around the eyes need to be handled in line with this integrity.
The first evaluations to be made for eye area rejuvenation applications can be listed as follows:
Evaluation of the Level of the Eyebrows.
When we consider the face as a whole, we can say that the eyebrows should be present in a certain proportion. g� to face base ratio Falling in the level of the eyebrows is a sign of aging. In order for eye contour rejuvenation applications to be successful, the eyebrows must be brought to a level appropriate to the facial ratio.
When there is a significant drop in the eyebrows, first of all, the eyebrow level must be adjusted to the facial ratio.
Daviness or Depression in the Temple Area
A collapse or collapse in the temple area can actually be described as the first stage of changing eyebrow levels and aging around the eyes. Aging is manifested by falling or more clearly collapsing in the temple area.
The main reason for falling or collapsing in the temple area is gravity.
Under and Above Eye. Bags appear due to the effects of aging on the upper eyelid, mostly in the temple area and eyebrows, while the lower eyelid occurs due to aging effects on the mid-face and cheek areas. The drooping of the eyebrows and temples creates a weight on the upper eyelid and causes bags due to the effects of gravity and aging. The displacement occurring in the mid-face area and cheeks due to the effect of gravity can cause the lower eyelid to be pulled down and cause bags.
If the condition of the cheek droop causing under-eye bags is severe, the cheek can be lifted up with the endoscopic tightening method.
What Should Be Done Before the Eye Rejuvenation Procedure?
Signs of aging around the eyes that occur after the age of 35 are evident with loosening of the upper eyelid skin and sagging of the eyebrows.
Around the age of 50, the muscles and skin of the upper eyelid become thinner, as in all body muscles and skin, and sagging increases. With the loosening of the connective tissues and fibers around the eyes, outward herniation of the fat pads in the eye socket and eye bags are observed.
A detailed examination before the eye contour rejuvenation surgery helps to ensure the holistic structure and basic proportion of the face. Effective procedures can be performed.
Eye Area Rejuvenation Procedures
In case of signs of aging observed around the eyes, the necessary procedures are carried out as a result of detailed preliminary evaluations by considering the face as a whole. .
-Upper eyelid operations; It is usually performed using local anesthesia. Surgeries performed only on the upper eyelid can be performed within 40 minutes - 1 hour.
-Lower eyelid operations; Since it is located in the cheek and mid-face border area, more detailed procedures are applied. Surgery of the lower eyelids may take an hour. In lower eyelid operations, sedation can be added to local anesthesia or general anesthesia can be applied according to the patient's request.
-The process of correcting the eyebrow level; It can be treated with endoscopic brow lift and botox applications.
After eye area rejuvenation procedures, the person can be discharged on the same day if general anesthesia is not applied. It may take 1 or 2 months to see final results after surgery. Despite its sensitive and thin structure, the eyelid skin is one of the areas that heals most easily, so there is almost no scar left after the surgery.
