The skin of the eyelids is the thinnest and most vascularized. The thickness of the skin of the eyelids is less than a millimeter. Unlike other anatomical areas, where fatty tissue is located under the skin, under the skin of the eyelids there is a flat circular muscle of the eye, which is conventionally divided into three parts:

<ul>
	<li>internal (located above the cartilage plates of the upper and lower eyelids);</li>
	<li>median (above the intraorbital fat);</li>
	<li>external (located above the bones of the orbit and woven into the muscles of the forehead at the top, and at the bottom - into the superficial musculo-fascial system of the face - SMAS).</li>
</ul>

With age, the condition of the eyelids changes - a clear border appears between the eyebrow and the upper eyelid, the lower eyelid and the cheek, the eyes seem empty.
