They say the eyes are the window to the soul, but they are also the first place to show signs of aging. Do people constantly ask if you are tired, sad, or angry, even when you feel great? Heavy upper eyelids and puffy under-eye bags can make you look years older than you actually are.
Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty) in Turkey is the most effective way to reverse this “tired look.”
Dr. Rehber Marşil, operating in Antalya, specializes in periorbital rejuvenation. Whether you need a simple skin excision or complex fat repositioning, his goal is to “open up” your gaze naturally, without altering your unique eye shape.
What is Eyelid Surgery? (Upper vs. Lower)
Eyelid surgery targets two distinct areas, which can be treated separately or together.
1. Upper Eyelid Surgery (The "Hooded Eye" Fix)
The Problem: Excess skin hangs over the eyelid crease, sometimes even blocking vision (hooding). It makes applying eyeshadow impossible and creates a heavy feeling.
The Fix: Dr. Marşil removes a precise strip of loose skin and a small amount of fat.
The Incision: Hidden perfectly within the natural crease of the eyelid. Invisible when eyes are open.
2. Lower Eyelid Surgery (The "Eye Bag" Fix)
The Problem: Puffy bags (herniated fat) or deep hollows (tear troughs) under the eyes, often accompanied by crepey, wrinkled skin.
The Fix: Dr. Marşil removes or repositions the excess fat to smooth the transition between the eyelid and the cheek.
The Incision: Either inside the eyelid (Transconjunctival – no external scar) or just below the lash line, depending on whether skin needs to be removed.

Am I a Good Candidate?
You are likely a good candidate if:
You have “hooded” eyes where the skin rests on your lashes.
You have permanent puffiness or “bags” under your eyes regardless of how much you sleep.
You have dark circles caused by shadows from bulging fat.
You have difficulty applying eye makeup due to loose skin.
Age: While common in ages 40+, younger patients with genetic eye bags also benefit greatly.
The Procedure: Minimal Downtime, Maximum Impact
Eyelid surgery is known for its high satisfaction rate and relatively easy recovery.
Surgery Duration: 45 minutes (Upper) to 1.5 hours (Lower/Combined).
Anesthesia: Local Anesthesia (Upper only) or Sedation/General (Lower/Combined).
Hospital Stay: Outpatient (home the same day).
Upper & Lower Blepharoplasty restores a youthful, alert appearance. Expert care by Dr. Rehber Marşil for natural results.
Why Choose Antalya, Turkey for Eye Surgery?
Although it’s a smaller surgery, your eyes are visible to everyone. Recovering in privacy is key.
Privacy: Wear your sunglasses and relax in a comfortable hotel in Antalya. No need to explain your swollen eyes to neighbors.
Expertise: Dr. Marşil performs hundreds of facial procedures annually. This experience is crucial to avoid complications like “hollow eyes” or changing the eye shape.
Value: Eyelid surgery in the UK/USA can cost £3,000–£7,000. In Turkey, you get premium care for 50-60% less.
Recovery Timeline
Because this is a less invasive procedure than a full facelift or brow lift, the recovery is relatively quick.
Safety & Honest Expectations
Scars: Upper eyelid scars hide in the crease. Lower eyelid scars hide under the lashes. They heal exceptionally well because eyelid skin is the thinnest in the body.
Dry Eyes: Temporary dryness or irritation is common. Artificial tears (drops) will be prescribed.
Asymmetry: No two eyes are perfectly identical. Minor differences are natural, though Dr. Marşil measures precisely to ensure maximum symmetry.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
01How much is Eyelid Surgery in Turkey?
Prices depend on whether you need Upper, Lower, or Combined surgery. However, Eyelid Surgery in Turkey is highly affordable. Our packages include the surgery, hotel accommodation, and transfers. Contact us for a specific quote.
02Will it change the shape of my eyes?
No. The goal is rejuvenation, not alteration. Dr. Marşil is very careful not to remove too much skin, which can cause a “staring” or round-eye look. You will look like yourself, just more awake.
03Is the surgery painful?
Upper eyelid surgery under local anesthesia is painless. Post-op, patients report “tightness” or “itching” rather than pain. Discomfort is easily managed with mild painkillers.
04Can I combine it with a Brow Lift?
Yes! This is a powerful combination. sometimes, heavy eyelids are actually caused by drooping eyebrows. Dr. Marşil will evaluate if you need a Brow Lift or Temporal Lift alongside your eyelid surgery for the best result.
05How long until I can wear contacts?
You should avoid contact lenses for 2 weeks to prevent pulling on the eyelids and causing irritation. Stick to glasses during recovery.
06Do the results last?
Upper eyelid surgery results last 5–10 years (aging continues). Lower eyelid surgery (fat removal) is essentially permanent, as the fat bags rarely return.
