Our clinic offers a variety of surgeries and procedures, including lifting, eye surgery, nose surgery, aesthetic treatments, and semi-permanent makeup.

Among them are surgeries that have earned such high trust that reservations are backed up, and one of them is <Middle-Aged Eye Surgery>. If the schedule works out, surgery may be possible within a few weeks, but when reservations are heavily booked, there are rare cases where you may need to wait about 2 to 3 months.

Even so, I believe there is a reason why people wait and insist on choosing Reborn Plastic Surgery instead of other plastic surgery clinics.

Middle-aged patients tend to prefer a plastic surgery clinic that is much safer and more reliable than one chosen by people in their 20s and 30s.

At Reborn Plastic Surgery, our medical staff is composed only of board-certified plastic surgeons, and we thoroughly conduct preoperative suitability tests as well as hygiene and sterilization management to help middle-aged patients undergo surgery safely.

Middle-aged eye surgery is completely different from regular eye surgery and requires an approach from multiple perspectives. Today’s post has been carefully prepared to share the expertise of Reborn Plastic Surgery.

I will honestly share how to return to a younger appearance as naturally as possible. :)

Middle-aged eye surgery: how is it different from regular eye surgery?

Regular eye surgery often involves comprehensively considering the condition of the skin, surrounding structures, and the patient’s concerns, then performing surgery based on the current situation.

Because a significant amount of skin elasticity is still present, if there are no functional problems, the patient’s needs can be fully considered. However, in middle-aged eye surgery, skin elasticity has significantly decreased, and in severe cases, it can even lead to functional problems with the eyes.

Also, once signs of aging appear, they tend to become more pronounced as the years go by, so both the current condition and the future condition must be considered.

For example, let’s say we are performing upper blepharoplasty. Upper blepharoplasty is a surgery in which an incision is made along the line where the double eyelid will be formed, the sagging skin is removed, and then the area is sutured. However, in some cases, not only the skin but also the muscle that helps open the eyes has weakened.

If only the skin is removed without strengthening the muscle, there is a high chance that the drooping eyelids will not improve even after surgery, which can reduce satisfaction.

In such cases, it is advisable to perform eyelid muscle strengthening surgery, called ptosis correction, at the same time. In addition, if the forehead and eyebrows are also sagging, even upper blepharoplasty alone cannot remove the feeling of heaviness.

This is because removing eyelid tissue does not also improve sagging in the eyebrows and forehead.

A surgery that can be considered in such cases is a forehead lift, and for some patients, sagging eyelids can improve with a forehead lift alone without needing separate upper blepharoplasty.

As such, middle-aged eye surgery is a procedure in which satisfactory results can be achieved only when various possibilities after surgery are considered together.

Middle-aged eye surgery: for those worried that their eye shape may look too strong...

Eye surgery is a relatively easy procedure for younger people to approach, but it is not the same for middle-aged patients.

That is because some people have resistance to plastic surgery itself, and far more people than in the younger age group worry, “What if something goes wrong after the surgery?” Also, some people hesitate to have eye surgery in middle age because they worry their eyes may become too intense or unnatural-looking.

Upper blepharoplasty includes an incision and tissue removal process, so if too much tissue is removed, the eyes can become overly intense, as you may imagine.

That is why, when a large amount of tissue removal is needed, our clinic does not perform the surgery with an incision method. Instead, we make a small incision in a less visible area to remove the tissue, and then complete the double eyelid with the non-incision method.

Many people think upper blepharoplasty can only be done with the incision method, but our clinic strives to create “natural-looking eyes” through various methods.

Also, when the under-eye fat is bulging, we divide the procedure into two types: transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty and transcutaneous lower blepharoplasty.

Transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty is a procedure in which an incision is made on the inside of the eyelid to reposition the fat, so the scar is not visible from the outside. On the other hand, transcutaneous lower blepharoplasty is a procedure in which a small incision is made in an area hidden by the eyelashes to reposition the fat and also perform lifting.

Because each has its own advantages and disadvantages, it is important to receive an accurate diagnosis and undergo the appropriate procedure.

I believe the reason middle-aged patients especially love Reborn Plastic Surgery is because of the research and effort of our medical staff.

These days, many plastic surgery clinics talk about the importance of a “youthful sense,” but middle-aged eye surgery needs to be approached from a different perspective. The most important thing is to have surgery with safety as the top priority, through a doctor who has long experience in this field.

At Reborn Plastic Surgery, we do our best with each and every consultation and strive to achieve natural results. If you need a consultation, you are welcome to contact us directly.

See you in the next post. Thank you. :)
