Blepharoplasty is the name given to surgery to correct eyelid sags and eye bags. In general, the surgery is operated under local anaesthesia. In this surgery, the main purpose is to tighten loose tissues to give a more dynamic and younger look. Operation duration depends on the looseness of the tissues. Slight swelling and bruising are possible after the surgery. These do not affect the daily life of the patient. There is no need for hospitalisation and the patient can be discharged on the same day. Sutures are removed after one week. Optimum results are obtained 2-3 months later.
