Almond Eyes Aesthetics in Antalya Turkey

Eye aesthetic surgeries have gained importance as our eyes come to the fore with the widespread use of masks during the pandemic process. Nowadays, with the increasing interest in visuality, interest in deep gaze has increased. Almond eye surgery is an aesthetic operation that many men and women have applied recently. The number of patients from Europe, especially the UK, who prefer our country to have this impressive operation, is quite high. Before telling about Almond eye surgery, I would like to briefly touch on the eyelid structure. Eyelids are of special importance because they are the thinnest skin structure of the body, protect very sensitive structures, move constantly and are easily affected by environmental-genetic factors. With the advancement of age, the tension and elastic structure of the eyelids decrease with the effect of gravity. Parallel to this process, symptoms such as sagging of the eyelids, dilation of the skin, discoloration, loosening, and wrinkles occur. Factors such as exposure to sunlight, air pollution, irregular sleep, excessive smoking and alcohol use accelerate the aging process of the skin. We call the inner and outer side corners of the eye “canthus”. If the external canthus is lower than it should be and the white part of the eye (sclera) is seen too much, this causes a tired and old expression. This situation creates an undesirable effect in the eyes, which are the focus of expressiveness. Many people demand this operation for this reason. Due to the fact that the surgery is performed with local anesthesia and is discharged on the same day, interest in the application is increasing. Although eyelid aesthetic surgery is a simpler procedure compared to other aesthetic surgeries, preoperative evaluations are carried out meticulously on your general health condition, wound healing properties and eye health. The presence of any eye complaints (such as eye pressure, dry eyes, wearing contact lenses and glasses) should be evaluated. Before the surgery, you should definitely inform your doctor about all medications you use, especially blood thinners, and all surgeries you have undergone. Smoking and other tobacco use should be discontinued 2-3 weeks before, as it delays wound healing. Herbal supplements should not be taken during this period, as they may cause unexpected effects. Almond eye surgery is the process of reshaping the eye by pulling the outer canthus of the eye further out and up. If the person also has excess, sagging or drooping in the upper eyelid, several problems can be solved at the same time by combining these operations during almond eye surgery. Thus, people gain a more energetic, vigorous and lively appearance. The common complaints of the patients, which are tired, sad or sleepy, can be corrected by almond eye aesthetic surgery. Almond eye operation can be performed locally or by sedation, and the person can return to daily life in about a week. The duration of the operation is 1 hour on average and the patient can be discharged on the same day. Redness, edema and very little pain can be seen in the postoperative period, with changes from person to person. It is beneficial to apply ice compresses for the first 3 days in order to reduce edema and bleeding that may occur in the postoperative period. After the 3rd day, these swellings leave their place to bruises, and the bruises will completely disappear when your stitches and tapes around your eyes are removed in your control one week later. After the operation, you will be prescribed antibiotics, painkillers and edema reducers along with eye drops. After a few days you will feel good enough to do your normal activities, but you should avoid heavy exercise and activities for 2 weeks. Since the eyelid skin is very thin, it is very difficult to notice the scar that will occur on the skin after 5-6 months.
