Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty: An Important Choice for Mid-Life Eye Rejuvenation > Plastic Surgery

Hello, I'm Dr. Yoo Dong-hyun from Miindo Clinic, specializing in plastic surgery and dermatology. Changes around the eyes are often the first signs of aging.

When the upper eyelids droop heavily and the area under the eyes becomes puffy, it can make you look tired and older.

This change isn't just a skin issue; it's caused by the weakening of muscles, fat, and soft tissues together.

Therefore, simple excision alone often doesn't achieve the desired results.

This is why middle-aged individuals often consider 'upper and lower blepharoplasty' together. Today, we'll explore these two procedures.

Chapter 01: Addressing Changes in the Upper Eyelid

Upper blepharoplasty helps those whose vision is obstructed by sagging upper eyelids or who have deep forehead wrinkles.

Rather than just removing skin, it adjusts drooping muscles and unnecessary fat,

revealing a more natural strength in opening the eyes.

As a result, it not only sharpens the appearance but also improves the functional discomfort of opening the eyes.

It's crucial that this surgery is customized based on a detailed analysis of individual eye shape and skin condition.

If the amount of skin excised is excessive or insufficient, the eye shape can look unnatural, so delicate adjustment is necessary.

After surgery, you can expect the eye muscles to move stably, widening the field of vision and restoring a more comfortable appearance.

Chapter 02: Correcting Under-Eye Sagging and Dark Circles

Lower blepharoplasty is suitable for those with bulging under-eye fat or deep wrinkles.

By removing or repositioning protruding fat and smoothing out sagging skin, the under-eye area is transformed to be smoother.

This process diminishes tear troughs, improves a dull complexion, and has the effect of brightening the entire face.

Lower blepharoplasty also helps those with decreased elasticity under the eyes.

Because it addresses not only fat but also the connecting structure of skin and muscle, the under-eye area doesn't look sunken and connects naturally.

After recovery, you can see dark circles fade and an appearance that used to look tired transforms into one that is much more vibrant and healthy.

Chapter 03: Why Consider Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty Together?

Correcting both the upper and lower eyes together balances the eye shape. By simultaneously improving drooping eyelids, under-eye wrinkles, and dark circles, a clear yet natural impression is created.

The functional improvement is a significant advantage for middle-aged individuals.

✅ Securing vision and correcting eye-opening strength with upper blepharoplasty

✅ Improving wrinkles, bulging fat, and dullness with lower blepharoplasty

✅ Strengthening facial balance with simultaneous upper and lower correction

✅ Restoring a natural and clear eye shape

Performing upper and lower blepharoplasty together can address complex problems that are difficult to handle with a single surgery.

The harmony is superior to correcting the upper and lower separately, resulting in natural-looking expressions,

which leads to higher satisfaction and stability.

Chapter 04: Mid-Life Eye Rejuvenation for a Natural Look

Upper and lower blepharoplasty is not just about pulling the skin but

about creating natural results by addressing muscles and fat together.

Thanks to this, you can regain a youthful and bright eye appearance without looking fierce or compromising your original features.

As a surgery that simultaneously solves age-related complex changes around the eyes, it can be the answer to mid-life eye rejuvenation.

Above all, stable changes are maintained over time after surgery.

Although the recovery speed varied depending on lifestyle habits and skin elasticity, the impression around the eyes generally became softer and clearer.

Thus, upper and lower blepharoplasty is not only about a younger-looking appearance but also

a way to take care of the functional comfort around the eyes.
