How many types of eye bags are there? Is it better to cut the eye bags externally or internally?

Eye bags will appear as we age. They will make us look listless and old. Some people have severe eye bags at a young age, which greatly affects their appearance.

Eye bags can be removed by endocut, extrinsic and laser eye bag removal. Endocut is a good way to remove eye bags, and the surgical trauma is very small. The postoperative effect is natural and traceless, and the skin is smooth and firm. There are two ways to remove traceless eye bags, internal and external, which are respectively for different eye bag problems. Traceless eye bag removal can eradicate all kinds of eye bags at once, and there is no rebound, eversion or deformation after the operation. It is a good choice. In traceless eye bag removal, the best treatment plan will be formulated according to the eye condition of the patient with eye bags, and the skin relaxation, orbital fat distribution, skin elasticity, etc. will be understood, so that the eye bags can be easily removed and the skin around the eyes can be flattened and firmed.

1. From the perspective of scarring

The incision for blepharoplasty is usually made 2-3 mm from the edge of the lower eyelid eyelashes, which will cause scars on the edge of the eyelid. Although a skilled doctor can make the scars almost invisible, it requires high technical skills from the doctor.

Endophthalmoscopy

The incision for endophthalmos surgery is located on the inner side of the eyelid, which is close to the eyeball, so no scars can be seen on the surface after the surgery. The advantage of endophthalmos surgery is not only that there will be no scars on the surface of the eye skin, but also that it will not affect the shape of the eyelid after the surgery, and the eyelid will still appear natural.

2. From the perspective of suitable groups

Eye bag removal surgery is suitable for the elderly

External eyebag surgery is suitable for people over 40 years old with loose lower eyelid skin or moderate to severe eyebags with obvious wrinkles. In addition, if the lower eyelid orbicularis oculi muscle hypertrophy (pseudo eyebags) is also suitable for external eyebag surgery.

Endophthalmostomy is suitable for young people

Endophthalmostomy is suitable for those who have typical eye bags due to orbital septum bulging, without obvious lower eyelid skin sagging and skin wrinkles. This group of people generally refers to young people, who have good skin elasticity and orbicularis oculi muscle strength, and the skin around the eyes is generally free of sagging and wrinkles. Therefore, young people generally use endophthalmostomy to achieve the effect of removing eye bags.

3. From the perspective of trauma

The trauma of external eye bag surgery is generally greater than that of internal eye bag surgery, because the incision of external eye bag surgery is located near the eyelashes of the lower eyelid. The surgery requires taking out the tissue (mostly fat) that forms the eye bag, cutting off the excess loose skin of the lower eyelid, and then suturing. Therefore, the trauma caused by external eye bag surgery is much greater than that of internal eye bag surgery.

Endophthalmoscopy

Endoscopic blepharoplasty is generally considered a less invasive surgical method because it leaves no external surgical scars and removes less subcutaneous tissue. For young people with eye bags who are worried about the long recovery period of eye bag surgery, endoscopic blepharoplasty is a good method for eye bag surgery.

4. From the perspective of recovery time

The recovery time for blepharoplasty is generally longer than that for endoblepharoplasty because the blepharoplasty procedure involves extracting eye fat and removing loose skin and tightening it. The sutures need to be removed and it takes about 1 month for the swelling to subside completely.

Endophthalmoscopy

The recovery time of endophthalmos surgery is shorter than that of exophthalmos surgery, because endophthalmos surgery generally only requires the removal of excess eye fat, and does not require the removal and tightening of eye skin. Since endophthalmos surgery is less traumatic than exophthalmos surgery, the recovery time of endophthalmos surgery is also faster than that of exophthalmos surgery. Generally, the swelling will subside within 7 days after the surgery, and there is no need to remove the stitches.
