Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty: 4-Day Before & After Transformation in Istanbul – Dr. Cem Berkay SINACI

Witness the Early Impact of Expert Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty: A 4-Day Before & After Case

Welcome to a visual testament of the early yet significant changes achievable through upper eyelid blepharoplasty, performed by Dr. Cem Berkay SINACI, a double board-certified (European and Turkish) plastic surgeon in Istanbul, Turkey. This page showcases a real patient's journey, comparing their appearance just before surgery with their look only 4 days after an upper eyelid lift.

Understanding the "Before": Addressing Hooded or Tired-Looking Eyes

Many individuals seek upper eyelid surgery in Istanbul due to concerns that make them appear perpetually tired, older than they feel, or even experience obstructed vision. In the "before" photograph, you may observe common indications for blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery):

• Excess upper eyelid skin: Often described as "hooded eyes," where a fold of skin droops over the natural crease of the eyelid, sometimes even resting on the eyelashes.

• Puffiness or fatty deposits: Contributing to a heavy or swollen appearance in the upper eyelids.

• A tired or sad expression: Even when feeling well-rested, the appearance of the upper eyelids can significantly impact overall facial expression.

• Obscured natural eyelid crease: The excess skin can hide the youthful definition of the upper eyelid.

Patients from the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and worldwide travel to Dr. SINACI's clinic in Istanbul, a certified international health tourism center, seeking expert solutions for these concerns. The goal is often to achieve a more refreshed, alert, and youthful eye appearance through precision upper blepharoplasty.

The "After" Photo: Remarkable Changes Just 4 Days Post-Surgery

The "after" photograph, taken merely 4 days following upper eyelid blepharoplasty, is particularly insightful. It highlights:

• Immediate reduction in excess skin: Even at this early stage, the removal of the "hooding" effect is often evident. The upper eyelid platform is more visible.

• Initial signs of a more open and brighter eye area: The eyes can already appear larger and more "awake."

• Early healing process: It's crucial to note that at 4 days post-op, some swelling and bruising are entirely normal and expected. This photo provides a realistic glimpse into the initial phase of blepharoplasty recovery. Dr. SINACI's meticulous technique aims to minimize trauma, but the body's natural healing response will be underway.

• Incision visibility: Incisions for upper blepharoplasty are strategically placed within the natural eyelid crease. While they may be visible and slightly red at 4 days, they are designed to heal into very fine, inconspicuous lines over the coming weeks and months.

Sharing a 4-day post-blepharoplasty result demonstrates the quick initial impact of the surgery and helps set realistic expectations for the early recovery period. Patients often report feeling a significant improvement in their field of vision (if previously obstructed) and a psychological boost from seeing these early positive changes.

What is Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty? The Procedure Explained

Upper eyelid blepharoplasty, sometimes referred to as an "eyelid lift" or "upper lid surgery," is a surgical procedure meticulously designed to remove excess skin and, in some cases, a small amount of fat from the upper eyelids. Dr. Cem Berkay SINACI performs this procedure with the utmost precision, focusing on:

• Natural-looking results: The goal is rejuvenation, not an "operated" look.

• Preserving eyelid function: Ensuring the eyelids continue to close and protect the eyes effectively.

• Minimizing scarring: Through careful incision placement and closure techniques.

This procedure can be performed alone or in conjunction with other facial rejuvenation surgeries such as a facelift, neck lift, brow lift, or lower eyelid blepharoplasty for comprehensive results.
