Pendulous eyelids are part of the ageing process. As we age, the skin loses its elasticity and the muscles around the eyes sag. The skin begins to droop, making the eyelids heavy. Drooping eyelids give a tired impression. In addition, the skin under the eyes can sag and create puffiness which contributes to a tired appearance.
In severe cases, drooping eyelids can affect the field of vision. If this is the case, the health insurer may reimburse for an eyelid correction for medical reasons. Ask a health insurer about the options for an eyelid correction in the Waddinxveen area .
An eyelid correction in the Waddinxveen area is always preceded by a consultation with one of our qualified and experienced doctors. You can easily book an appointment for a free consultation via our website. During the personal interview with our surgical doctor, you can indicate what bothers you, what eye complaints you have and what you would like to see changed. The consultation takes place in a relaxed setting so that you feel completely at ease. You will have the conversation with the doctor treating you.
You may during the free consultation ask all your questions about treatment, aftercare, risks and costs. You will get expert and honest answers. Your eligibility for an eyelid correction will be examined. You will receive clear explanations about the entire treatment process and the expected result. During this first consultation, photos are taken of you before treatment. At a later stage, these are compared with the photos taken after the surgery. You can thus see the positive effect of the eyelid correction in Waddinxveen.
An eyelid correction in the Waddinxveen area requires no admission at our clinic. It is an outpatient treatment and relatively simple procedure performed under local anaesthetic. If you are very nervous, sedative medication can be prescribed. Our patients are allowed to go home after the procedure and after a short rest period. An upper eyelid correction is performed for drooping eyelids. The treatment area is first marked off. After a minute incision, the excess skin and fatty tissue is removed. The scar of the suture falls precisely into the natural skin fold. This is virtually invisible later.
A lower eyelid correction is performed if you suffer from bags under your eyes. Our specialist makes a small incision under the lash line, after which the excess skin and fatty tissue under the eyes is removed. The skin is then pulled together and sutured. The scar under your eyelashes is hardly visible, if at all. An eyelid correction is a painless treatment that takes about 1 hour. You should not drive yourself after the treatment because of the swelling around the eyes and the resulting reduced vision. An eyelid correction has long-term results. You will - with good skin care and a healthy lifestyle - enjoy the treatment for 10 to 15 years.
You are guaranteed at SkinSurgery excellent aftercare. We follow an aftercare protocol to minimise the risks and chances of complications. Swelling and redness after eyelid surgery in Waddinxveen can be effectively controlled with cooling goggles. You place a gauze pad between your eyes and the cooling goggles. It helps to sleep with an extra pillow for the first few days so that your head lies higher. In case of mild pain, a paracetamol can be taken. You are allowed to rinse your eyes with a gentle jet of water one day after the procedure. Afterwards, pat it dry without rubbing.
For the first week, avoid heavy physical exercise, lifting, bending, pressing and coughing. You should not cut the ends of the stitches yourself. This will be done after 7 to 9 days at our clinic. It is out of the question to smoke while the sutures are still in place. Otherwise, your blood vessels will constrict and you run an increased risk of impaired wound healing. You may use make-up again after the stitches have been removed and all scabs are gone. Do not expose the scars to sunlight or tanning bed radiation for the first three months. You will see our doctor for a check-up up to 6 weeks after the treatment.
An eyelid correction in Waddinxveen is not associated with any major risks or complications. This short-term and relatively simple procedure only causes some swelling, redness and bruising around the eyes. These symptoms disappear after a few days. In occasional cases, post-bleeding, ocular inflammation, numbness of the eyelid margin, uneven eyelids, cysts or scarring may occur. If in doubt, contact the specialists at SkinSurgery. Our doctors are readily available.
Nothing shows the difference better than a photo. Check out the before and after photos of eyelid surgery performed by SkinSurgery and see how the whole face changes. The contours of the eyes come back to the fore and the droopy flaps are removed. No more tired look, but a fresh look.
There are also no scars to be seen. Our specialists are experts in covering up the procedure and the associated scars will not be visible because the sutures are placed in the skin fold (above) and just below the eyelashes.
For the first few weeks, the treatment area will be swollen and red after eyelid surgery. Don't worry, the area around the eyes just needs some time to recover.
First results can be seen after a few weeks. The skin is tighter and looks younger. The full results can be seen in full after a few months. Scroll down to see the before and after photos of the many women and men who have gone before you.
