Can sagging double eyelids be repaired?

Drooping double eyelids are very common in daily life. They not only have a certain impact on people's image, but also reflect some physical health conditions. Many people don’t know whether sagging double eyelids can be repaired. In fact, the answer is yes, but it depends on the factors that cause the patient’s sagging double eyelids. Different degrees and types of sagging double eyelids require different repair methods.

1. Congenital factors

Congenital ptosis accounts for about 80% of all categories. It is caused by abnormal development of the levator palpebrae superioris muscle, which leads to weakened or even lost function of the levator palpebrae superioris muscle, resulting in slightly higher eyelid thickness, slight drooping of the eyelid, and more seriously, enophthalmos. As we age, our eyelids continue to sag, and as wrinkles form, they appear heavier.

2. Acquired Factors

There are many acquired factors that cause eyelids to droop continuously.

1. First of all, sagging eyelids are a sign of aging

As we age, the entire skin appears loose, and the collagen and elastin in the skin will weaken, especially on the face, especially around the eyes. The skin around the eyes is the weakest part of the human epidermis. As we age, the soft tissue around the eye sockets gradually loosens and sags, which in turn compresses the eyelids. More seriously, it can cause pathological eyelid sagging and lead to eye diseases such as cataracts. Therefore, aging becomes an inevitable factor that causes eyelids to droop.

2. Secondly, drooping eyelids are related to staying up late and lack of sleep.

The increase in work and study pressure, long-term exposure to computers and mobile phones with strong radiation, staying up late to play games, insomnia and other factors will lead to poor sleep quality, which has a particularly great impact on the eyes.

There are many microvessels around the eyes. When you lack sleep or are overly tired, the skin around your eyes cannot get enough rest. The blood vessels in your eyes will continue to be tense and contracted. The blood in the skin around your eyes will continue to circulate, causing the blood vessels in the subcutaneous tissue to dilate and blood stasis, thus causing sagging eyelids.

3. In addition, sagging eyelids are related to one’s mentality.

Maintaining a healthy and peaceful mindset is very helpful for treating droopy eyelids. In fact, at any time in life, using smiles to motivate yourself can also promote the normal secretion of various growth hormones in the human body and help to boost the overall spirit. In addition, a good attitude can also fully enhance our self-confidence and make us more confident in dealing with the entire life. Why not do it?

4. Eyelid sagging is related to eating habits

There are too many delicious foods tempting us in life, and improper eating habits will cause a burden on the kidneys. The liver is closely related to the eyes. If the liver is not so healthy, the eyes will be dull and the eyelids will easily become loose. Therefore, it is very important to maintain healthy eating habits.

Liking spicy food and having irregular diet will accelerate the aging of the eyes and cause sagging eyelids. Therefore, you should pay more attention to eating more vegetables and fruits. Also, you should pay attention to drinking more water and less alcoholic beverages.

5. Trauma and other unpredictable factors

Some eye injuries caused by unpredictable factors such as falls and collisions can cause the eyelids to swell and droop, thus affecting the beauty of the eyes. These unpredictable factors are really a bit frustrating, so it is very important to protect our eyes in daily life.
