Droopy, sagging eyelids is a common condition that can be treated with many different options. These options include surgery and dermal filler. Age, genetics and accidental injuries are all possible treatments. But, it is best to consult a doctor before you make any decision about any treatment. In this article, we'll explore the most popular options. Here are the disadvantages and advantages of each option.
Surgery
Droopy eyelid surgery is a great option if you are tired of looking in the mirror, and finding bags under your eyes. Droopy eyelids can be a problem for both men and women. Blepharoplasty improves the function of the eyelids and reduces swelling. You may also experience a better vision and increased tear production. You'll be able to see more clearly and have more confidence, but droopy eyelids can come back.
Dermal filler
Dermal filler, a cosmetic procedure used to treat droopy or sagging eyelids, is a popular option. This treatment uses a 30-gauge needle which punctures skin on the lower part of the eyelid. The needle moves in a suborbicularis direction, along the inferior orbital margin. Multiple passes will be made to deliver filler. The needle is feathered to a uniform height. After filling out the creases gently massage the area.
Nerve damage
Ptosis, or droopy eyes, is a condition that can affect either one eye or both. This can indicate a number of medical conditions such as underlying neurological disorders or trauma. There are two types ptosis: congenital or acquired. It doesn't matter the cause, it can make life difficult and even embarrassing.
Weakened muscles
Droopy eyelids could be due to a variety of reasons. These could be due to age-related muscle weakness or trauma. In some cases, the muscles are affected by a disease, such as mitochondrial myopathy or myotonic dystrophy. In others, the levator muscle tendon stretches, which can cause ptosis. Children can also experience this condition after undergoing eyelid surgery or trauma.
Loose skin
Dermatochalasis is a condition that leaves skin on the eyelids of a large part of the population. This condition is most common in middle-aged and older people, but it can also occur at any age. The condition is often referred to as "baggy eyes." Droopy eyes are not only unattractive, but excess skin can lead to more serious problems.
