Lower Eyelid Surgery: Youthful Look in Fethiye [2026]

What is Lower Eyelid Surgery?

Over time, due to gravity, aging, and genetic factors, under-eye bags, sagging, and deep lines may develop. Lower eyelid surgery (Lower Blepharoplasty) is a surgical procedure that eliminates this tired and aged expression, giving the person a more vigorous and youthful appearance.

In our clinic in Fethiye, the main goal of this procedure is not only to tighten the skin but also to reposition herniated fat pads to achieve a natural look.

Who is a Candidate for Lower Blepharoplasty?

You may be a suitable candidate for this procedure if you have:

• Prominent fat bags under the eyes.

• Sagging and wrinkling of the under-eye skin.

• A constantly tired or sleepless expression.

• Pronounced under-eye hollows (tear troughs).

How is the Procedure Performed?

Lower eyelid surgery is performed under local anesthesia or sedation. The procedure takes approximately 45-60 minutes. Two main techniques are used:

1. Transconjunctival (Scarless) Method: The incision is made inside the eyelid. There is no visible scar. It is generally preferred for patients who have fat bags but no excess skin.

2. Subciliary Incision Method: A very fine incision is made just below the lash line to remove excess skin and rearrange fat bags. The scar is hidden in the lash line and becomes invisible once healed.

• Full recovery: It may take 3-4 weeks for all swelling to subside completely.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is lower eyelid surgery permanent?

Yes, the results of lower eyelid surgery are long-lasting. Once the fat bags are removed, they rarely return. However, as the aging process continues, it is important to maintain skin quality.

Will there be visible scars?

No, there are no conspicuous scars. In the transconjunctival method, there are no external scars at all. For incisions made under the eyelashes, the scar is hidden in natural folds and fades over time.

Does it treat dark circles?

The primary goal is to remove bags, but since the shadowing effect caused by the bags is eliminated, the under-eye area looks brighter. To further improve skin quality, treatments like mesotherapy or laser can be combined with surgery.

How much does the surgery cost in Fethiye?

The prices for lower eyelid surgery in 2026 vary depending on the technique used and whether combined procedures are performed. Please contact our clinic for exact pricing.

Is the surgery painful?

No, since local anesthesia is used during the procedure, no pain is felt. After the surgery, any mild discomfort can be easily controlled with simple painkillers.
