The Ultimate Guide to Eye Bag Removal in Cancun






Introduction


Last fact-checked: 17 November 2022

Looking tired and old due to baggy eyelids? Why not have a holiday and get eye bag removal in Cancun? You’ll look and feel great after the surgery and will return home with renewed confidence.

Eye bags occur when the skin around our eyes becomes loose. There are environmental factors which can contribute to it, including sun damage and smoking, but it could be because you are genetically predisposed to baggy eyes. The problem tends to occur as we get older, as our skin naturally loses its elasticity, leading to lines, wrinkles and the dreaded sagging.

In only a few decades Cancun has been transformed from a sleepy fisherman’s village to a stylish, first-class holiday location. With white, sandy beaches dotted with palm trees, ancient relics of the Mayan culture and a sophisticated town with impressive amenities including top-notch hotels, swanky restaurants, fabulous shopping malls and an impressive nightlife visitors get entertainment round-the-clock.

It’s little wonder it is Mexico’s jewel in the crown of holiday destinations, and unsurprising that it is making itself known as a medical tourism destination too.

Like its tourist amenities, Cancun offers a cut-above in terms of medical tourism services. Healthcare facilities are exceptionally good and there is a commitment to delivering the best quality services at the best prices.

Whether you choose a Joint Commission International accredited facility or elsewhere, you are assured of the highest standards in terms of medical expertise if you spend a little time researching and choosing your surgeon with care.

Standards are generally high, but it is always worth spending the time to check for yourself. Medical Departures performs its own background checks. We visit clinics personally and we verify doctor qualifications and professional memberships. We list the information on our site alongside high-definition clinic photos, virtual clinic tours and real patient testimonials, giving patients the opportunity to make their own judgments from an informed perspective.

How long is an eye bag removal procedure and what can I expect?


Eye bag removal surgery typically takes between 1 and 3 hours, but to an extent depends on whether you are having treatment to both the upper and lower lids.

The surgery involves making incisions where excess loose tissue, skin and fat are removed. In the lower lids, the incision is made inside the eyelid and so won’t be visible afterward, and in the upper lids, it is made in one of the natural creases of the eyelid which will fade over time to be virtually unnoticeable.

What is the recovery time for eye bag removal?


After the procedure, you may well have localized bruising and swelling around the eyes and upper part of your face. You will need to be careful not to touch the area for around 5 days after surgery and to take it gently for at least a week. Many people go back to work after a week, although bruising and/or swelling may still be evident. It will be around 6 weeks before you can indulge in any vigorous sports or activities, including heavy lifting.

We had a great experience, our doctor Oray Karaçaylı is extremely professional. Thanks to his trust and warm approach, my daughter did not experience any problems before and after the surgery. The nurses on duty were also very attentive and caring. There were only no consumables in our room, we got soap and paper after a 3-hour wait.

I went to the hospital for the second time yesterday and I would like to thank the gentleman in a suit at the entrance, the doctors and the security guards for their interest and concern. Everyone was very open to communication and explanatory.

Dear Professor Cenk Ersavaş, I cannot thank you enough for the abscess drainage surgery I had on February 11th. As someone who had previously undergone an unsuccessful operation and an unnecessary intervention, I was worried when I came to you. However, I reached out to you by trusting the comments on the internet and I understood very clearly how right I was during and after the surgery. You are not only an excellent surgeon, but also a sincere and trustworthy person who approaches his patients like a brother, who is always accessible. I am 40 years old and I have never met such a doctor before. I feel very lucky to have met you. Brother Cenk, thank you so much for everything! I am so glad you exist, I am so glad I got to know you.

All the doctors are very good and egoless. They do not look down on people and speak with attitude. The dialogue between the doctors is also very good and they successfully produced a solution to a complicated situation together. The nurses and the desk clerks are very cheerful. We slept on the second floor. The floors and rooms are clean and the food is very good. If you have any health problems, first go to a Memorial Ataşehir.

I gave birth there too, 5 years later we went to Dr. Bülent Karadağ for my daughter's allergies... We were very, very pleased... He listened in detail and found a solution.
