More about a tired look

Tired-looking eyes can be very bothersome. Your vision may be impaired, or you may look tired and older than you are.

A tired look can have various causes. Drooping upper eyelids, bags or excess skin under the eyes can make the eyes look heavier. Lower-set eyebrows can also contribute to a tired appearance. During a consultation, the plastic surgeon can assess which factors play a role in your case.
A tired appearance can have various causes, such as excess skin on the upper eyelids, bags under the eyes or low-set eyebrows. Depending on the cause, an upper eyelid correction, lower eyelid correction or eyebrow lift may be recommended. During a personal consultation, we look at which treatment best suits your face.

Frequently Asked Questions

Depending on the cause and the condition of the skin, various treatments can be considered. A lower eyelid correction can address excess skin and fat deposits under the eyes. In certain cases, Endolift can be used to firm and tighten the skin under the eyes.
An upper eyelid correction is a commonly used treatment for excess skin of the upper eyelids. In this procedure, excess skin and, if necessary, underlying fatty tissue are removed. If a low eyebrow position also plays a role, an eyebrow lift may be considered.
In an upper eyelid correction, a strip of excess skin is removed from the upper eyelid, which mainly helps with obstructed vision and a "sleepy" look. In a lower eyelid correction, by contrast, excess skin and bulging fat (bags) under the eyes are treated. Both procedures can be performed separately or in combination, depending on what bothers you most.
An eyelid correction treats excess skin and fat at the level of the eyelid itself. An eyebrow lift addresses the position of the eyebrow and the forehead. Sometimes it seems as if there is too much eyelid skin, while the actual cause is a drooping eyebrow. The two procedures are also often combined.
Endolift is suitable for mild to moderate skin laxity, early slackening of the face or neck, and bags under the eyes without excess skin. The treatment is particularly suitable for those who want a subtle, natural improvement without surgery.
