Does Scarring Remain After Lower Eyelid Surgery?
Lower eyelid surgery is one of the effective surgical procedures performed to eliminate problems such as under-eye bags, swelling, and an aged expression that develop over time.
However, one of the questions patients wonder about most before the procedure and frequently search on Google is:
“Does scarring remain after lower eyelid surgery?”
Especially for individuals considering this operation in Suadiye and the surrounding area, this question is a critical part of the decision-making process.
What Does the Risk of Scarring Depend On?
Whether scarring remains after lower eyelid surgery directly depends on how the operation is planned, which technique is used, and
the experience of the surgeon performing the procedure.
Whether the transconjunctival technique</strong or the classic skin incision</strong is applied during the procedure is decisive in this regard.
Transconjunctival Technique: An Invisible Method from the Outside
If there is only under-eye bagging</strong and no excess skin, the preferred technique is the transconjunctival approach.
In this method, the incision is made from the inner part of the eyelid, so no scar is visible from the outside.
Scar Visibility in Procedures Performed with a Skin Incision
In patients with skin sagging</strong, a classic incision made along the lower lash line is applied.
However, this incision is aligned with the natural eye line and closed with aesthetic sutures.
When performed by an experienced surgeon</strong, this scar fades within a few weeks and
often becomes barely noticeable.
