Upper Eyelid Lift with Surgery: What you should consider if you have Drooping Eyelids
Drooping Eyelids make the eyes appear small and the gaze tired. They develop because the muscles in the forehead area weaken and lose elasticity. The excess skin sags, resulting in a tired look. When looking in the mirror, many people feel unattractive or older than they are. Patients desire a fresh and friendly facial expression around their eyes.
Surgical treatment of Drooping Eyelids
Eyelid surgery is one of the most common procedures in aesthetic plastic surgery. The surgical Upper Eyelid Lift achieves very good results. The procedure is generally straightforward and is performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia. However, the experience and expertise of your surgeon in treating Drooping Eyelids have a significant impact on the risks and a medically sound outcome. According to the German Society of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons (DGPRÄC), the risks of an Upper Eyelid Lift can be minimized by a qualified plastic surgeon with extensive experience.
At the Löwen Ästhetik practice in Braunschweig, upper eyelid corrective procedure is a standard part of their treatment offerings. Dr. G. Felix Brölsch, German board-certified specialist in Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery , is highly experienced and competent. "Over the years, I have performed more than 100 Upper Eyelid Lift . My patients' satisfaction and providing medically professional care are always my highest priorities," says Dr. G. Felix Brölsch.
Make sure you choose reputable practitioners
Drooping Eyelids surgery takes about 30 minutes per eyelid. Dr. Brölsch explains: “We can remove the sutures after five to seven days, so patients can, for example, apply makeup to their upper eyelids as usual after ten days at the latest.” To ensure that the surgical Upper Eyelid Lift or drooping eyelid surgery is completely satisfactory, those interested should make sure that the specialist always takes sufficient time for examination and discussion during the initial consultation. “This is important, firstly, to determine which treatment is most promising, and secondly, patients should always have the opportunity to have all their questions answered,” says Dr. Brölsch.
Ultimately, every patient is unique: Reputable practitioners take this into account during Consultation and cosmetic treatments, including cosmetic surgeries. Incidentally, if Drooping Eyelids are so pronounced that they impair vision, the procedure is considered medically necessary, and health insurance companies will cover part of the costs.
