Exceptional Value:For an investment of €3,500 / $4,000 USD, you receive dramatic results lasting 10-15+ years with no ongoing maintenance costs. That’s just €24-28 per month for transformed confidence and vision.
Results typically last 10-15 years or longer. Some patients never need revision surgery, while others may choose to do so many years in the future.
The incision is placed along your natural eyelid crease, making any scar nearly invisible. Most patients cannot detect the scar once fully healed.
If your vision is obstructed by drooping eyelids, removing the excess tissue can restore your visual field and improve vision.
You’ll look significantly better within 1-2 weeks. Full results appear over 3-6 months as final swelling resolves.
Serious complications are rare. Minor risks include temporary swelling, bruising, dry eye, and asymmetry. Dr. Askeroğlu will discuss all risks during consultation.
Yes. Local anesthesia with sedation is the standard approach. General anesthesia is also available if preferred.
With local anesthesia, you’ll be relaxed and comfortable but not fully asleep. You won’t feel pain, just sensations of pressure.
Minor asymmetries are common initially and usually resolve as swelling goes down. Dr. Askeroğlu strives for symmetry, and any adjustments needed can be discussed at follow-ups.
You cannot drive the day of surgery due to anesthesia. Most patients can drive safely after 3-5 days if not taking pain medication.
Eye makeup should be avoided for 1-2 weeks. Once allowed, use fresh products and be gentle around the incision area.
