Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty

Upper eyelid blepharoplasty is one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures worldwide, addressing concerns such as excess skin and prominent fat pads in the upper eyelids.

However, this procedure should not be considered a simple removal of skin or fat. A refined approach requires deep respect for anatomy, with careful attention to the relationship between the eyebrows and eyelids to maintain facial harmony. Avoiding overly aggressive skin or fat removal is essential to prevent complications and preserve a natural appearance.

Like all periocular aesthetic procedures, the goal of upper blepharoplasty is not to alter a patient’s expression or identity, but rather to restore a more refreshed and balanced look.

Dr. Mirza Fırat’s approach is based on precision and restraint. Only the necessary amount of skin is removed to avoid complications such as incomplete eyelid closure. Similarly, excess fat is addressed conservatively to prevent a hollow or skeletonized appearance.

When volume deficiency (hollowness in the orbits) is present, the procedure can be complemented with fat grafting to restore a smooth and youthful contour. In cases where brow ptosis contributes to upper eyelid heaviness, a tailored brow elevation may also be incorporated to achieve optimal results.

Through this comprehensive and individualized approach, Dr. Mirza Fırat aims to deliver upper blepharoplasty results that are natural, safe, and in harmony with the patient’s overall facial expression.
