[Diva Plastic Surgery] Can Side Effects from Lower Blepharoplasty Be Resolved?

Hello. This is Diva Plastic Surgery!

As perceptions of plastic surgery have become more positive,

more people of all ages, both men and women, are taking an interest in it.

It is no longer seen simply as a way to become more beautiful;

it can also help compensate for one’s shortcomings,

improve functional aspects, and restore confidence.

In particular, perceptions among middle-aged people have also improved significantly,

making youthful plastic surgery and middle-aged plastic surgery increasingly popular.

Among middle-aged eye surgeries, lower blepharoplasty is especially popular.

Today, at Diva Plastic Surgery, we would like to explain lower blepharoplasty

and the side effects that many people worry about.

Lower blepharoplasty is a surgery that removes protruding under-eye fat caused by aging

and improves wrinkles and dark circles,

creating a brighter and more vibrant eye area.

The skin around the eyes is thin.

Among them, the skin under the eyes is the thinnest and most delicate,

so signs of aging can appear more quickly.

If you properly remove only the unnecessary signs of aging under the eyes,

you can create a youthful face that looks much younger than your age.

At Diva Plastic Surgery, lower blepharoplasty is planned after considering

the condition of sagging skin and the shape of the fat,

and the amount of skin to be removed is determined accordingly.

After designing the procedure, an incision is made below the eyes,

and the sagging skin and protruding fat are removed.

The loosened muscle is then tightened and fixed to the conjunctiva.

Because the suturing is done on the inside of the eye,

there is less concern about scarring,

and recovery can be supported more quickly.

Although it has many advantages, some people still hesitate to undergo surgery

because they worry about a side effect called ectropion, where the eyelid turns outward.

At Diva Plastic Surgery, in lower blepharoplasty,

to address ectropion, a possible side effect that can occur during lower eyelid surgery,

we perform lateral canthopexy.

Lateral canthopexy is a surgical method that fixes the sagging skin tissue and muscles around the eyes

to the periosteum on the outer side of the eye.

If excessive muscle removal is performed during lower blepharoplasty,

or if the incision line is extended inward,

the possibility of nerve damage increases,

which may lead to ectropion.

At Diva Plastic Surgery, lateral canthopexy can reduce these risks

and neatly improve under-eye sagging that cannot be resolved with lower blepharoplasty alone.

Wrinkles under the eyes and muscle laxity can be improved at the same time,

helping reduce a tired-looking impression and create a brighter image.

At Diva Plastic Surgery, lower blepharoplasty is performed not only with lateral canthopexy,

but also with combined procedures such as under-eye fat removal and repositioning,

depending on the individual’s eye shape and the degree of aging,

allowing for more satisfying results.

Based on abundant clinical experience and know-how,

Diva Plastic Surgery provides customized procedures tailored to each individual.

We hope you can experience a more radiant appearance

by creating harmonious and balanced beauty.
