What are the aims of the surgery?

The purpose of aesthetic surgery of the eyelids is to surgically reconstruct or remove excess adipose tissue, skin and muscles that cause sagging of the eyelids. This operation is not performed to correct wrinkles under or lateral to the eyes, dark circles around the eyes or depressed eyebrows called. This operation is not to correct the drooping of the upper eyelid, also called ptosis. For the later problem, it is necessary to intervene in the eye muscles (the same can be done during surgery). At the same time, if the sagging skin is large enough to restrict the visual field, this problem is also solved by this surgery.
