Eyelid surgery is a popular and widely applied beauty method. Therefore, people’s interest in this method is proliferating. To gain the most comprehensive overview of this method, you can refer to the following article by SMC Reconstructive Surgery for essential information.
I. What is eyelid surgery?
The eyes are the windows to the soul, so the need for eye beauty treatments is becoming increasingly popular and receiving a lot of attention. The most typical example is eyelid surgery.
Eyelid surgery is a very popular double eyelid creation method that helps make the eyes bigger, rounder, and more attractive. During eyelid surgery, the medical team will remove excess skin from the eyelids and recreate a new eyelid crease that is more suitable for each person’s facial features.
Eyelid surgery is a simplistic surgery that aims to maintain the eyelid crease for a long time and improve your overall facial aesthetics. It also helps widen the eyes and overcome drooping eyelids.
Eyelid surgery is an excellent choice for women over 30. Mainly because this is the age when the skin is no longer plump and firm, and the eyelid area begins to show signs of aging, with sagging skin and eye bags. Therefore, eyelid surgery will help rejuvenate and completely renew the eye area.
