The pros and cons of endoscopic and endoscopic eye bag surgery

In addition to being related to genetics, the existence of eye bags is mostly caused by acquired factors, such as improper massage, crying, and frequent eyeliner application. Eye bags are very ugly and have a great impact on facial appearance. Generally speaking, if you want to solve the problem, surgical correction is very effective. Internal and external incision of eye bags are two different methods. So, what are the pros and cons of internal and external incision of eye bags? Let’s take a look below.

External incision blepharoplasty is the most traditional surgical method for treating eye bags. It is suitable for loose lower eyelid skin and hypertrophy of the orbicularis oculi muscle of the lower eyelid (pseudo-eye bags). The main manifestations are loose lower eyelid skin and wrinkles, no protrusion of orbital septum fat, and sometimes it is atrophied and slightly sunken, or hypertrophy of the orbicularis oculi muscle of the lower eyelid related to family heredity. During the operation, the incision is made along the lower edge of the lower eyelid eyelashes to the outer canthal groove, and the bulging eye bag fat is removed after separation through the incision. At the same time, tighten the lower eyelid skin, cut off excess lower eyelid skin, and remove wrinkles on the lower eyelid skin. The incision of this method is concealed, and it is difficult to see the incision mark 1 to 2 months after healing.

Endoincision eyebag removal is a common treatment method for eyebags in recent years. The surgical operation and applicable population of this method are different from those of external incision, and can be selected according to needs.

Endo-incision eyebag removal is a method developed based on the external incision method. It is currently a popular method of eyebag removal surgery. This method is mainly suitable for orbital fat protrusion, that is, typical eye bags caused by orbital septum bulging, without loose lower eyelid skin and skin wrinkles. It removes eye fat through a small incision in the conjunctival sac of the lower eye.

External incision method to remove eye bags

Indications

1. Mainly suitable for loose skin type: loose eyelid skin, wrinkles, no orbital fat protrusion and orbicularis oculi muscle hypertrophy;

2. Orbital septum fat loss type: orbital septum fat loss, causing outward bulging or bag-like protrusion in the lower eyelid;

3. Orbicularis oculi hypertrophy type: a crescent-shaped bulge appears below the eyelid margin.

advantage

The operation time is short and the incision marks are relatively hidden, generally not obvious or visible.

The external incision method is thorough and can greatly improve eye bags and wrinkles. It is suitable for older people with loose skin and more wrinkles.

In addition, the midface lift, which is a wrinkle removal procedure, is also very effective in removing eye bags. Its incision is the same as that for eye bag surgery. During the operation, the SAMS fascia is lifted and fixed, and the eye bags are removed at the same time. Through this surgery, the sagging skin from the inner corner of the eye to the nose wing can be lifted as a whole, which not only solves the problem of eye bags, but also effectively removes wrinkles, killing two birds with one stone.
