Regenerative Blepharoplasty

Regenerative blepharoplasty is an apparently simple technique, but requires great aesthetic sense and deep anatomical knowledge. At Image, it combines eyelid remodeling with the use of Lipogems, a regenerative technology based on autologous fat, patented by Professor Carlo Tremolada. This technique removes excess skin and fat, while Lipogems restores volumes and improves skin quality, ensuring a fresher and more natural look without altering facial expression. Additionally, its anti-inflammatory properties significantly reduce post-operative swelling and promote optimal healing.

About the Treatment

Our Expertise: Precision and Experience

Regenerative blepharoplasty, while being an established technique, requires extremely high precision and refined aesthetic sense to avoid errors that can compromise the final result. Problems like excessive removal of skin or fat, which can lead to sunken eyes or difficulty closing eyelids, or visible asymmetries, can only be avoided through the experience of a skilled surgeon. Trusting specialists with excellent competencies, like those at Image, means eliminating the risk of major errors and achieving a rejuvenated, natural look in total harmony with the face. Patient safety and satisfaction are our primary objective, supported by years of experience and cutting-edge techniques.

What is blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery and a fundamental part of 'eye surgery', is a procedure that addresses age-related changes around the eyes. With advancing age (chronoaging), weakening of periocular muscles, herniation of periorbital fat, skin elastosis, and reduction of bone volumes contribute to making the eyes look tired and heavy.

Blepharoplasty can be performed on the upper eyelid, lower eyelid, or both (complete blepharoplasty):

  • Upper Blepharoplasty: Corrects eyelid ptosis and removes excess skin from upper eyelids. Scars are hidden in the natural eyelid crease, restoring a more open and alert appearance of the eyes.
  • Lower Blepharoplasty: Treats "bags under the eyes" by removing or redistributing excess fat deposits and tightening loose skin of the lower eyelids.

    • Complementary Treatments

    To optimize blepharoplasty results, complementary treatments can be considered:

  • Canthoplasty and Canthopexy: Canthoplasty is a surgical procedure that reshapes or repositions the outer corner of the eye to modify its shape and position, often to achieve a more elongated or "almond-shaped" appearance. Canthopexy, on the other hand, is a less invasive procedure that fixes and reinforces the outer corner of the eye to improve eyelid support and correct minor sagging, maintaining a natural appearance.
  • Brow Lift: Corrects eyebrow ptosis for further "opening" of the eyes.
  • Rejuvenation with Lipogems®: Innovative technology for treating dark circles and tear troughs, ideal for complete periocular area rejuvenation.

    • The Procedure and Recovery

    The procedure is performed under local anesthesia with sedation and lasts between 30 minutes and an hour. Recovery is generally smooth: swelling and bruising resolve in a few days, and patients can resume social activities after about two weeks.

    Ideal Candidates

    Blepharoplasty is particularly suitable for people 30 years and older who wish to correct:

  • Excess skin on upper eyelids
  • Drooping eyelids
  • Under-eye bags
  • Fine wrinkles around the eyes

    Frequently Asked Questions

    When can I wear makeup after blepharoplasty?

    You can wear makeup only after swelling has subsided and sutures have been removed. Follow your surgeon's instructions strictly.

    Will blepharoplasty scars be visible?

    No, incisions are strategically placed along natural eyelid folds, making scars practically invisible. Complete scar healing takes about 6 months, during which they become increasingly less noticeable.

    What is the role of Lipogems in regenerative blepharoplasty?

    Lipogems, based on the patient's autologous fat, restores lost volume, improves skin quality, and activates deep tissue regeneration, ensuring natural results and optimal recovery. Today, performing cosmetic surgery without considering regeneration is unthinkable, as this approach significantly improves both aesthetics and treated tissue wellness.
