Improving Droopy, Tired-Looking Eyes with Upper Blepharoplasty

<Actual upper blepharoplasty case at DM Plastic Surgery>

Aging is a natural process, but it can also bring various inconveniences.

As the skin around the eyes sags with age, it can obstruct the field of vision and create a tired or gloomy appearance.

The sagging skin may also rub against itself, causing irritation at the outer corners of the eyes.

Because drooping eyelids can interfere with vision, people may unconsciously open their eyes wider, which can deepen forehead wrinkles as well.

We understand that these inconveniences may be a source of more than a few concerns. ㅠㅠ

The signs of aging mentioned above can be improved through a procedure called upper blepharoplasty.

To correct drooping eyelids that cause various problems,

DM Plastic Surgery performs minimal-incision upper blepharoplasty. Rather than simply removing skin, this procedure minimizes the incision on the thin eyelid skin and tightens and secures the levator muscle to help minimize the formation of thick, uneven double eyelid folds.

The skin around the eyes is especially thin and contains many concentrated blood vessels, so the procedure requires advanced skill and experience.

To achieve a satisfactory result, surgery should be performed by a specialist with extensive clinical experience.

For more information about upper blepharoplasty, which can improve not only cosmetic concerns but also functional discomfort, please review the information below and visit DM Plastic Surgery for a more detailed evaluation!

What makes DM’s upper blepharoplasty different?

At DM Plastic Surgery, minimal tissue removal can reduce wrinkles and create a more youthful-looking eye area, while also helping prevent future wrinkles and maintain eyelid elasticity.

In addition, through in-depth consultation with the medical team, an individualized design is created for each patient, allowing for clear improvement and a high level of satisfaction. Let’s take a closer look at minimal-incision upper blepharoplasty!

What is minimal-incision upper blepharoplasty?

DM Plastic Surgery’s “minimal-incision upper blepharoplasty” is,

as mentioned earlier, a procedure performed when aging causes the eyelid skin to stretch and sag, making the eyes appear smaller and constricted.

At DM Plastic Surgery, the drooping eyelid skin is minimally removed and tightened to address signs of aging in the forehead, eyebrows, and eyelids, creating a clear and defined eye contour. ❤

Through minimal-incision upper blepharoplasty, unnecessary tissue stretched by drooping eyelids can be removed, adding vitality to the eyes while improving both appearance and functional discomfort.

DM is different!

A method that simply removes skin over a wide area and pulls the external wrinkles to create a double eyelid fold may have a higher likelihood of recurrence!

At our clinic, we minimize scarring by using minimal tissue removal. We also tighten and secure the levator muscle to help prevent recurrence.

After sufficient consultation with an experienced specialist, the degree of eyelid drooping is assessed and a customized 1:1 procedure is performed.

Through minimal tissue removal, unnecessary fat is removed, and the levator muscle is tightly pulled and sutured to improve the eyes into a more open and clearly defined appearance.

The reduced concern about scarring through minimal tissue removal, along with the high satisfaction associated with our expertise, is why there are so many introductions and reviews of upper blepharoplasty at DM Plastic Surgery.

What is the levator muscle?

While explaining the surgical method above, we used the term “levator muscle.”

What exactly is the “levator muscle”?

The levator muscle originates around the optic canal, passes through the eye socket, and extends to the skin of the upper eyelid and the tarsal plate. It functions to lift the upper eyelid.

During surgery, DM Plastic Surgery tightens and secures the levator muscle to help prevent recurrence.

Eyelid drooping caused by aging can be improved!

Upper blepharoplasty minimally removes wrinkles caused by sagging around the eyes to create a more youthful-looking appearance.

It may also help prevent future wrinkles and strengthen drooping eyelids by tightening the levator muscle.

At DM Plastic Surgery, many people visit us because of the high satisfaction associated with our surgical method, which combines the expertise of a plastic surgery specialist with extensive clinical experience.
