TRANSCONJUNCTIVAL (SEAMLESS) BLEPHAROPLASTY

Probably the most unpleasant evidence of age on the face is bags under the eyes or, more precisely, paraorbital hernias. They appear much earlier than a woman is ready to admit that the help of a professional cosmetologist is required. Fortunately, today there are many opportunities to eliminate this problem.

Hernias under the eyes

Paraorbital fat hernias are swelling in the lower and upper eyelids. The skin under the eyes is thin, so age-related loss of elasticity in this area is more noticeable. Vision function does not suffer from these features. But the appearance becomes tired, painful, and shows age. Therefore, many women are looking for an opportunity to get rid of bags under their eyes.

Note! Hernias under the eyes develop as age-related changes; they can occur at 30-35 years of age. Tension of facial muscles and weakening of connective tissue fibers lead to sagging skin. Over time, the empty space is filled with fatty tissue. It looks like bags under the eyes.

Causes

This problem can develop at different ages, and many reasons contribute to this.

With “wrong” fasting, muscle mass is lost and the water-electrolyte balance is disturbed. One of the consequences is the retraction of the eyeballs and the appearance of hernias under the eyes.

There are quite a few reasons why this problem occurs.

As life progresses, muscles lose tone and fatty tissue fills the empty spaces. Thick skin does not allow these changes to be noticed. If nature has made you the owner of thin skin, accumulations of adipose tissue appear in the form of bags under the eyes.

Hernial protrusions are often called edema, but this is not entirely correct. Edema, rather, contributes to the formation of paraorbital hernias. Water is retained in the body, edema forms due to reasons such as kidney disease, cardiovascular disease, electrolyte imbalance, abuse of table salt and foods containing it. Fluid accumulates in the connective tissue, impairs blood circulation in the muscles, causing their hypotrophy. This leads to the formation of a hernia.

Hernias under the eyes are often confused with swelling

Important! Processes in the body are regulated not only by the nervous system, but also by the level of hormones in the blood. Conditions such as pregnancy, menopause, and diseases associated with hormone imbalance can trigger the appearance of hernias.

Genetic predisposition is manifested by early loss of elasticity and firmness of the skin, structural features of the orbit and facial skull.

Appearance, like a mirror, reflects your lifestyle. Systematic abuse of alcoholic beverages and tobacco smoking lead to the formation of periorbital hernias at an earlier age.

Bad habits contribute to the development of this problem

Important! Poor sleep, lack of proper rest, psychological stress, and strenuous activity when working at a computer contribute to the formation of bags under the eyes.

Among other reasons, experts cite prolonged exposure to the sun's rays, in a solarium, and lack of facial skin protection with creams and glasses.

Another reason is the improper use of cosmetics. For example, you cannot use winter cosmetics in summer. Preparations for the area around the eyes make up a large part of cosmetic products. In order to make the right choice, you need to consult a medical specialist.

It is important to use cosmetics correctly

Blepharoplasty against bags under the eyes

You can remove “bags” under the eyes (fatty hernias) in one go using lower eyelid blepharoplasty. Removed fat packets do not form again in these places. During this surgery, the plastic surgeon can also remove excess stretched skin.

The result of blepharoplasty. The work of plastic surgeon Khatri Amit Rajendrovich!

With the help of eyelid blepharoplasty, you can not only remove “bags” under the eyes, but also solve a wide range of problems:

• remove excess skin of the upper eyelids;
• eliminate drooping corners of the eyes;
• correct asymmetry of the upper eyelids
• correct too narrow eye shape;
• remove wrinkles and folds around the eyes (“crow’s feet”).

In classic blepharoplasty, the plastic surgeon makes tiny incisions under the eyelashes. Therefore, postoperative sutures are hidden and unnoticeable to others.

Transconjunctival blepharoplasty

performed
without incisions
, however, the operation has a more limited range of aesthetic indications. If you have excess skin, this method may not be suitable.

Types of paraorbital hernias

If fatty tissue accumulates in the sub-eyelid area, they speak of a hernia in the upper eyelid.

If adipose tissue forms a protrusion in the area under the lower eyelashes, most often at the inner corner of the eye, they speak of a hernia in the lower eyelid.

Such formations are familiar to everyone, and it seems that diagnosis cannot cause difficulties. However, despite its apparent simplicity, hernias can be confused with edema or other pathological processes. Including those with early signs of serious illness. Therefore, it is better to entrust the diagnosis to a medical specialist.

When the first signs of such a problem appear, it is better to be examined by a doctor.

Important! In most cases, hernial sacs only disrupt the aesthetic appearance of a person. In the mornings and throughout the day he looks tired, tired, and sick. But such changes sometimes lead to other problems: the outflow of lymphatic fluid is hampered, blood circulation and nutrition of muscles, ligaments, and connective tissue are disrupted.

Most often, this problem is not life-threatening, except in cases of severe overhanging skin over the eyes and the inability to see fully.

Usually this problem is not life threatening

Other folk remedies have a beneficial effect.

1. Place fresh cucumber slices on your eyes.
2. Make potato masks. Grate the potatoes, wrap the mixture in gauze, and place under your eyes for 15 minutes. When preparing mashed potatoes, also wrap the cooled mashed potatoes in cheesecloth, then place them under your eyes. These are the most effective remedies for bags.
3. Excellent egg white mask. Beat the egg white into a thick foam, add 2-3 drops of an astringent - liquid witch hazel extract - into it. It can perfectly tighten thin skin. Apply the mask with a soft sponge and wash off after the protein mass has completely dried.
4. Strawberries, aloe leaf juice and tea bags will help reduce swelling. Cut the strawberries into slices and immediately apply to the eyes for 5-10 minutes, cut the aloe leaf lengthwise and apply to the problem area. A simple tea bag mask gives the most positive results. Apply the sachets directly from the cup to the desired areas.
5. An effective method is to apply mashed parsley leaves, which also have a tightening effect.

You cannot cope with this problem without massage and gymnastics.

Massage daily with the pads of your fingers from the bridge of the nose along the upper eyelid and from the outer corner of the eye along the lower. For the best effect, don't forget to apply eye cream. The duration of the massage is at least 3-5 minutes.

Cold spoons will help tighten the skin under the eyes and improve blood circulation. Place the spoons in the refrigerator, then apply them to the areas that need tightening. If you dip them in cold herbal infusions, the result will be even more noticeable. The reviews from these procedures are the most enthusiastic!

From personal experience

Gymnastics for the eye muscles gives amazing results. Do it twice a day and you will soon see it. Exercises can be done during commercials while watching TV shows, before bed and in the morning after sleep. Do gymnastics regularly and you will definitely do without surgery.

• Move your eyes from left to right, then up and down, without raising your eyebrows.
• Close your eyes, count to 25, and then open them sharply, while making sure that no wrinkles form on your forehead. Do it 10 times.
• A very effective exercise is circular rotation of the eyes, first in one direction, then in the other direction. Along the way, you will improve your vision and memory by massaging the internal systems of the head.

• Blink your eyes quickly and then open them wide. Alternating load and relaxation will also help get rid of the defect.

Operative methods

It is possible to get rid of the problem through surgery. It's called blepharoplasty. Several types are used.

Laser blepharoplasty

Most often performed as a cosmetic procedure. In some cases, due to medical necessity (deterioration of peripheral vision).

An anesthetic gel is applied to the skin. An incision is made on the lower eyelid under the eyelashes. Excess subcutaneous fat tissue is removed with a laser. The integrity of the skin is restored by suturing. They can be self-resorbable. The results of the manipulation usually last for a long time.

Advantages of laser blepharoplasty

If the excess skin is small, an incision is made with a laser through the conjunctiva. In this case, there is no need to apply stitches.

Important! Despite the obvious advantage of the operation in the form of minimally invasiveness, the disadvantage is the high price of the procedure.

Traditional blepharoplasty - excision with a scalpel

This type of surgery is performed under local or general anesthesia. The choice depends on the patient’s preferences, his medical history, the volume of the hernial protrusion, and location.

Traditional blepharoplasty involves making a skin incision

Surgical access is made through a micro-incision in the skin along the edge of the lower eyelid. According to indications, the surgeon can excise part of the stretched skin. Then the excess fat tissue is removed. The operation ends with suturing. The postoperative period is longer and requires rehabilitation. It may take three to four weeks.

Note! During the healing process, the patient is bothered by swelling, subcutaneous hematomas, and moderate pain.

Skin healing after such an operation is quite long.

Transconjunctival blepharoplasty

This method is preferable from an aesthetic point of view, as it is seamless. It is most often performed in patients aged 20-35 years, so that sagging skin does not appear in the future.

Excess fat is removed with a scalpel or evaporated by laser. The surgical wound heals without stitches.

Before and after transconjunctival blepharoplasty

Note! The postoperative period does not require long-term rehabilitation and proceeds without complications. Local anesthesia is sufficient for pain relief.

Traditional methods

As soon as you notice the appearance of bags under your eyes, do not expect significant stretching of the tissue, but begin treatment with traditional methods. Believe me, this is a very effective technique, but it all depends on your patience, because all procedures must be carried out regularly and for a long time. But significant muscle strains cannot be treated without blepharoplasty.

At home, it is possible to cope with this problem, but the first results may appear after 3-4 weeks from the first manipulation.

Try water treatments first. Wash your face alternately with warm and cold water; the washing process should be completed with cold water. You need to drink more, because water will flush out excess salt from the body - the cause of edema.

Ice cubes are an excellent anti-edema technique. How to reduce bags with ice cubes?

Freeze herbal decoctions and wipe the problem area around the eyes with them daily. Tested in practice - oak bark infusion has a tightening effect.

Take 1 teaspoon of dried bark, pour a cup of boiling water, let it brew for 2 hours. Then pour the infusion into molds and place in the freezer.

Preparation and examination before surgery

As before any operation, it is necessary to conduct tests and undergo examinations.

The standard examination list includes:

• blood analysis;
• tests for antibodies to HIV, hepatitis C, markers for viral hepatitis B, test for syphilis;
• general urine analysis;
• electrocardiogram.

Before the operation you will need to undergo some tests

Medical indications are given for visual impairment due to paraorbital hernias.

Contraindications to blepharoplasty:

• infectious processes;
• exacerbation of chronic diseases of the eye and its membranes;
• increased intraocular pressure, dry eye syndrome;
• severe somatic illnesses;
• diabetes;
• disorders of the blood coagulation system.

One of the contraindications to the procedure is diabetes.

Hernia of the lower eyelids: how to remove without surgery

New technologies are designed to save people from lower eyelid defects, which spoil their mood and life.

Contour plastic. If the epidermis of the lower eyelid is very stretched, then this new procedure will help.

Chemical peeling is a forced renewal of the top layer of the skin.

Mesothreads are a comprehensive facelift using special corrective threads. Subsequently, the threads dissolve.

All this leads to aging of the face in appearance and the flow of lymph to the eyes. The end result is plump and deformed areas of skin.

You can check it as follows: just press on the eyeball; if bumpy skin does appear, then fat folds are present. In the lower eyelid, when the eyes lose their elasticity under the eyelashes and you find swelling, in this case a fatty hernia will appear under the eye.

This defect does absolutely no harm to your body at all, but is considered just a “cosmetic pathology.”

If all this brings psychological discomfort coupled with suffering to a woman, then naturally she should get rid of it as soon as possible.

Upper eyelid blepharoplasty

One of the most common operations in cosmetology is upper eyelid blepharoplasty. The surgery is performed under local anesthesia. After several hours of observation, if there are no complications, the patient goes home.

Excess fat tissue is removed through a micro-incision, and several cosmetic stitches are applied. On average, the procedure takes about forty minutes. If there are no complications, the sutures are removed on the 4th day. The postoperative scar is most often invisible, as it is located in the projection of the natural fold of the upper eyelid.

Upper eyelid blepharoplasty

Potential complications after surgery:

• postoperative swelling;
• subcutaneous hematoma;
• lacrimation.

Note! Usually complications disappear within a few days to two to three weeks.

Swelling after surgery disappears after a few weeks

Treatment

To prescribe the necessary treatment procedures, the true cause of the hernia should be established. To eliminate the possibility of the presence of other pathologies, they undergo a preliminary examination by a nephrologist, cardiologist, and ophthalmologist.

Read the article about why the eyes swell above the eyelids.

Drug therapy

To remove a lower eyelid hernia, both surgical and non-surgical techniques are used. The latter include:

• Thermolifting is a type of controlled tissue damage caused by heat, stimulating the immune system to renew skin cells. Protein coagulates from heat, and collagen and elastin fibers contract. In this case, fat cells are involved in the process, and the hernia disappears;
• Ultrasonic lifting. Allows penetration into the deeper layers of the skin and activates the formation of new elastin fibers, launching the process of neocollagenesis. The effect of exposure is visible immediately, but fully manifests itself after 5-6 months;
• Microcurrent therapy. Exposure of the skin to minimal electrical impulses is a stimulus for: synthesis of collagen and elastin fibers, elimination of fluid stagnation, restoration of facial muscle tone, and lymphatic drainage;
• Mesotherapy. This technique is based on the introduction subcutaneously or into the skin of specially selected medications that stimulate metabolic processes and accelerate metabolism, activating the immune system. This technique is suitable only for patients without fear of injections and is carried out by a highly qualified specialist;
• Biorevitalization. A method of introducing hyaluronic acid into the deep subcutaneous layers, a hydrocolloid that is part of the intercellular substance and is involved in the synthesis of collagen and elastin.

If the above procedures are ineffective, surgical methods may be used:

• Classic blepharoplasty. It is performed in patients with severe age-related changes, when in addition to removing fat deposits, excision of skin folds is also required. The incision is made according to special markings on the edge of the lower eyelid at the place where eyelashes grow, which makes postoperative sutures invisible;
• Transconjunctival blepharoplasty (or laser). Unlike the classic one, this type of operation is prescribed to young patients who do not need to remove excess skin. Fat tissue is removed through a small puncture (0.5-0.7 cm) on the inside of the eyelid.

Folk remedies

Modern plastic methods can only be implemented in special clinics and by highly qualified specialists. Not every locality can provide such services, and not everyone can afford them. What can you do at home?

Traditional medicine recommends using the following recipes:

• Eye mask from raw grated potatoes for 10-15 minutes. When used daily, it helps eliminate bags under the eyes;
• Potatoes boiled in their jackets, slightly cooled and applied to the eyelids, warm up the deepest tissues and activate metabolism in the heated area. Duration of the procedure – 0.5 hours;
• Raw grated potatoes mixed with a small amount of milk and flour are applied to the lower and upper eyelids for 15-20 minutes. After this, wash off with warm tea leaves;
• An effective remedy is sage lotions (1 tablespoon of herb per 100 g of boiling water). One part is cooled, the other is heated and alternate lotions are made, each for several minutes;
• Parsley decoction also helps get rid of fat deposits on the lower eyelids. Chopped parsley (30 g) is poured into a glass of boiling water and cooked over low heat for 5 minutes. , after which it is cooled, filtered and used for lotions;
• Boiled and mashed pumpkin is applied to the eyelid area and left for 15 minutes. The procedure helps not only to get rid of puffiness of the eyelids, but also to nourish the facial skin with vitamins;
• The most economical way is to use frozen tea bags after drinking tea. If you apply them to your eyelids, blood circulation will improve, and with it your metabolism will speed up, and fatty tissue will decrease;
• A proven method from Bulgaria - white clay mixed with rose oil. This mask has not only a cosmetic, but also a therapeutic effect, because white clay is a good sorbent, it binds and removes harmful substances from tissues, and stimulates cell regeneration.

How much does the operation cost?

The issue of the cost of the operation is very important.

Prices depend on the complexity of the operation, the condition of the skin, the severity of the hernia, the pricing policy of the clinic, the conditions of the operation, and postoperative observation.

The cost of the procedure depends on many factors

Laser blepharoplasty – 90,000 – 120,000 rubles.

Traditional blepharoplasty costs from 50,000 to 60,000 rubles.

Blepharoplasty via transconjunctival access - from 60,000 to 65,000 rubles.

Thermolifting of the upper or lower eyelids - 10,500 rubles.

Local anesthesia – from 5,000 to 5,500 rubles.

A set of rehabilitation procedures (6 sessions) - 12,000-13,000 rubles.

Lower cost of traditional blepharoplasty

Causes of eyelid hernia

The main reason for the formation of fatty eye hernias is age-related changes in the skin and soft tissues, which are aggravated by constant blinking. Together they provoke loss of tone of the orbicularis oculi muscle and its ligamentous apparatus, stretching and ptosis of the skin. Such manifestations most often become noticeable in people aged 35 years and older.

Other causes and provoking factors for the appearance of eyelid hernias include:

• hereditary predisposition, anatomical features of the face;
• poor nutrition;
• negative effects of direct sunlight (ultraviolet);
• abuse of decorative cosmetics (especially low quality);
• frequent and prolonged exposure to the TV or computer;
• regular overwork and stressful conditions;
• chronic lack of sleep, violations of work and rest schedules;
• presence of bad habits (drinking alcohol, smoking);
• tendency to allergic reactions;
• ophthalmological diseases;
• imbalance of the hormonal system;
• renal pathologies, dysfunction of the urinary system;
• diseases of the cardiovascular system (lymphostasis, impaired microcirculation).

There are almost no sebaceous glands in the area around the eyes, so the skin is prone to dryness. Careful and proper care and timely contact with a cosmetologist can prevent the appearance of hernias and prolong the youth and freshness of the eyelid tissues.

Conservative treatment methods

An alternative to surgical intervention is conservative therapy: hardware and injection procedures, folk remedies, exercises.

Note! Hardware methods include exposure to electric current, ultrasound, radio wave radiation, and laser.

With the help of conservative treatment methods, hernias under the eyes can be slightly reduced

Electrical stimulation is achieved through low frequency electrical current. This improves muscle tone, and therefore reduces the severity of hernial protrusion.

Lymphatic drainage using microcurrents, carried out along the paths of outflow of lymphatic fluid, eliminates fluid stagnation, improves blood circulation in muscles and connective tissue.

Thermolifting is a hardware method using high-frequency radio wave radiation. It stimulates the restoration of elastin and collagen fibers and enhances the activity of fibroblasts.

Thermolifting is effective

Ultrasonic lifting allows you to increase the tone of the superficial muscular-aponeurotic system of the face. The lifting effect reduces the severity of paraorbital hernias.

Fractional thermolysis is a hardware method using a laser, which is passed through special lenses. As a result, micro-rays are formed that penetrate deep into the skin and provide a complex effect: crushing adipose tissue, reducing swelling, improving blood circulation. The overall effect is skin rejuvenation.

Fractional thermolysis

Each of the hardware methods has contraindications. These include:

• skin diseases;
• implanted pacemaker, metal implants in the body;
• individual intolerance to electric current;
• connective tissue diseases;
• infectious diseases;
• exacerbation of chronic pathologies;
• oncological, mental diseases;
• diabetes;
• history of seizures (epilepsy);
• diseases occurring with damage to blood vessels;
• pregnancy and lactation period.

Such methods are contraindicated for skin diseases

The effect of hardware procedures lasts for a long time with regular repetition. With a pronounced degree of paraorbital hernia, surgical treatment is necessary. Conservative therapy will not be enough.

Important! The hardware procedures listed above have advantages over surgical intervention: no rehabilitation period is required, and the risk of complications is lower.

Injection procedures

Carboxytherapy is otherwise called “gas” injection. The method is a type of mesotherapy and consists of subcutaneous injection of carbon dioxide agents. Blood circulation and lymph flow improve, the metabolism of connective tissue and subcutaneous fat is activated. This allows you to get rid of such a problem.

During carboxytherapy, a product containing carbon dioxide is injected under the skin.

Plasmolifting is the use of the patient’s own plasma as an active substance in the form of a subcutaneous injection.

Dermal fillers are a method of administering sodium hyaluronate-based products. They reduce hernias under the eyes and “fill in” wrinkles.

Dermal fillers may be injected

Just as for other procedures, there are contraindications to the administration of various drugs:

• diseases of a viral or bacterial nature;
• conditions accompanied by increased body temperature;
• severe somatic pathologies;
• oncological diseases;
• history of seizures (epilepsy);
• hemorrhagic syndrome;
• allergic reaction to drugs;
• pregnancy, lactation period;
• tendency to form keloid scars.

Injections are contraindicated in severe somatic pathologies

Cosmetical tools

Cosmetics for eliminating dark circles and bags under the eyes belong to different groups: creams for deep hydration, enrichment with vitamins, lotions, cooling rollers. With a large selection, it is difficult to settle on something specific or combine products correctly. Each of them is intended for a specific skin type, age, and solution to a specific problem. Professional consultation with a medical specialist is the best way to achieve lasting results.

You can use various cosmetics

Traditional methods

Folk remedies are accessible, simple, considered safe, time-tested. However, their effectiveness is only sufficient to prevent or prevent relapses of such a problem.

Popular means to “fight” this problem:

• decoctions of medicinal herbs: string, birch leaves, chamomile, parsley;
• White clay;
• green tea infusion;
• curd mask;
• sesame oil and much more.

Folk remedies will help prevent recurrences of this problem

The problem of paraorbital hernias in men

Males also face the same problems.

Hernias under the eyes also occur in men

Features of the structure of male skin:

• it contains more collagen and elastin, denser connective tissue;
• more active blood circulation, which means more opportunities for fluid stagnation.

Recommendations for eyelid skin care for men:

• giving up bad habits, abuse of foods high in salt, preservatives, carbonated liquids;
• use of cosmetic products labeled “for men”;
• optimal mode of physical activity, alternating stress and rest when working with a computer;
• healthy sleep - 7-8 hours a day;
• compliance with protection measures from direct sunlight - using various cosmetics, wearing hats;

Healthy sleep will help prevent this problem

Most recommendations are true not only for men, but also for women. The basis of the beauty of facial skin and its even color is maintaining the health of the whole body. At different ages, representatives of both sexes face certain problems. Cosmetology offers ways to correct various defects. Of course, you can always have surgery and get rid of such a problem as hernias under the eyes. However, only the person himself can preserve and prolong the effects of cosmetic procedures thanks to proper skin care, prevention of various pathologies and careful attention to his health.

Modern methods of hernia removal

What to do if the problem has gone too far? Cosmetologists suggest turning to hardware procedures, such as microcurrent treatment. Low voltage currents destroy fat cells, normalize exchange between cells, and improve tissue lymphatic drainage.

Thermolifting, when using radio waves, collagen and elastin are produced in the skin . Thanks to this procedure, the epidermis becomes elastic, tightened, and the growth of the fat layer stops.

Ultrasound removal of fat accumulation is considered the shortest procedure. One session is enough to reduce the accumulation of fat in one place. It will be distributed over the entire surface, causing swelling under the eyes to become almost invisible.

The laser also came to the aid of cosmetologists . By acting on hernias with a laser, they are rapidly reduced.
