What is Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)?
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that removes or repositions excess skin, muscle, and fat around the upper and/or lower eyelids to correct sagging, puffiness, or under-eye bags. It is performed both for cosmetic rejuvenation and for functional reasons, such as when drooping upper eyelids obstruct vision. The procedure is typically done under local anesthesia with sedation and offers long-lasting improvement in eyelid contour and a more refreshed, youthful appearance.
Who may be considered?
Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery) may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.
How does it work?
Removal of excess skin and fat from the upper eyelid through a discreet incision hidden in the natural eyelid crease, improving vision and appearance.
Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty
Most PopularRemoval of excess skin and fat from the upper eyelid through a discreet incision hidden in the natural eyelid crease, improving vision and appearance.
Comprehensive Investigations
CBC, blood sugar, coagulation profile, ophthalmology evaluation, visual field test (if functional concern), ECG (if indicated)
Treatment / Procedure Estimate

Recovery and follow-up
Most patients experience bruising and swelling for 7-14 days, with stitches (if any) removed within a week; strenuous activity and contact lens use should be avoided for 2-3 weeks, and full results are visible within 4-6 weeks.
Risks
Potential risks include temporary dry eyes, bruising, asymmetry, scarring, or, rarely, changes in eyelid closure or vision; choosing an experienced oculoplastic or plastic surgeon significantly minimizes these risks.
Alternatives
Non-surgical alternatives such as dermal fillers, Botox, laser skin resurfacing, or radiofrequency skin tightening may offer temporary improvement for mild cases, though surgical blepharoplasty provides more definitive, long-lasting results.
