Lower eyelid correction / lacrimal sac
Theme:
Drooping eyelids, hanging eyelids or bags also can be corrected aesthetically. This correction is carried out like in the upper eyelid, considered a very diffizilerer intervention, but, not here too much skin can be removed. Also bags as fat filled with lymph removed it carefully.
This operation must be performed under general anesthesia because the patient must be absolutely quiet, to work with the microscope.
The intervention is made mostly on both eyelids of at the same time, or else a non-uniformity of appearance can occur. A fatty tissue to protect of the eye exists in the Interior of the eye socket. This fatty tissue can get out in some cases below the eyeball. In this so-called bags under the eyes, therefore the fat must be separated.
The visible part of the eye is greater after the recent eyelid surgery. The lids are covered in the eyelid of the orbital muscle, therefore must be also a part of this muscle fibers during this procedure be removed, to achieve a longer-lasting success. The fine cut is carried out under the lash, so later hardly any traces of scars will be.
In difficult cases, it makes more sense to carry a side Kanthoplastik, this means that the lower eyelid is laterally fixed on the periosteum of the orbit. If it scars should remain, these may be removed after 1 year with the laser technique. The OP is off a little bit the lower eyelid, must or can be repeated after about 2 months of intervention.
The aesthetic result is very satisfactory by the continual refinement of the surgical technique and brings a fresher and restore appearance for the patient for many years.
Before however, an operation can be made, some diseases need to be clarified, E.g. is an eye affliction, this doctor must be informed, heart and circulatory diseases are known, applies as well the visit before the 'family doctor' than is absolutely necessary, as E.g. eye bags and dark circles would arise by a heart condition and therefore a lower eyelid correction make no sense.
Lower eyelid corrections are subject than in the upper eyelid with a much better risk, that's why you should choose particularly here a highly experienced plastic surgeon or an ophthalmologist with additional training.

Es gibt noch eine andere Methode, die mir mein HNO Arzt letzte Woche erklärt hat und komplett ohne OP die Nase verkleinert, zumindest optisch. Dazu wird oberhalb der Nasenflügel etwas Hyaluronsäure gespritzt und die Nasenflügel wirken adhoc etwas kleiner. Das ist besser als der tägliche Aufwand mit dem Schmicken! Informiert Euch einfach mal ... Ich finde, es ist aktuell die beste Lösung die Nasenflügel ohne OP zu verkleinern, auch wenn die Unterspritzung nur einige Monate hält.
