[Lari Plastic Surgery] Short-Term Before-and-After Photos of Lower Blepharoplasty: How to Avoid Ectropion

Can eye surgery make you look younger?

If you look at grandmothers and grandfathers, you can often see many bulldog-like wrinkles on the face caused by sagging skin.

The area where this sagging most easily appears is the skin around the eyes.

As the lower eyelids sag,

deep folds that look like large grooves form below the eyes,

and the fat above these folds also sags together,

making the person look older.

In cases like this, the necessary procedure is lower blepharoplasty.

Lower blepharoplasty

removes the protruding fat from the lower eyelids

and removes the excess sagging skin in that order,

and the point that can be called the fine difference here

lies in removing the excess sagging skin.

No matter how much loose skin there is,

if an appropriate amount is not excised, problems will arise.

The major problem occurs when too much skin is removed.

If too much lower eyelid skin is excised,

a condition called ectropion can occur.

Ectropion refers to a condition in which the skin turns outward.

If ectropion occurs in the lower eyelid,

the red conjunctiva on the inside of the lower blepharoplasty area may become exposed,

and because the skin is separated from the eyeball,

you may even experience a stinging and dry feeling in the eyes.

If these symptoms persist, they can even damage the functional part of the eyeball,

so this is the point that must be handled carefully during lower blepharoplasty.

Ectropion can be seen most clearly when looking upward in a glaring expression,

but after surgery, lower eyelid ectropion did not occur,

the under-eye fat was removed well, and there was almost no scar,

so you can check the before-and-after results showing a clean appearance.
