The Clinic

Result is right after the procedure.

The final result is visible after 2 - 3 months when the skin and structures under the scar have been restored.
The speed with which the wound and the scar heals varies from person to person.
Wound healing is slower in smokers than in non-smokers.
It is important that the scar is protected against UV light in order to achieve the best possible wound healing.
It is advisable to protect your scar every day from sunlight.
SkinKlinnik recommends the Keloplast SPF 50 cream.

Within 2 weeks, the whole area will clearly unswell and the signs of the surgery will fade.
After 3 - 4 weeks, the largest part of the swelling has disappeared.

The follow-up takes place between 5 and 7 days, during the follow-up the wound is inspected and the sutures are removed.
A final follow-up takes place after 3 - 4 months.
The end result of an upper eyelid correction is definitive after 1 year.

Generally speaking, a non - smoker has 10 - 15 years of pleasure from the eyelid correction, in smokers the skin laxity is faster, the effect of an eyelid correction is therefore shorter to 5 - 10 years, depending on age and skin type.
