Blepharoplasty (Eye-Lid Lift Surgery for Bags)

  • Lifting sagging upper lids (hooded eyes)
  • Removing excess eye skin
  • Smoothing under-eye bags,
  • Minor improvements to peripheral vision.

Blepharoplasty, commonly referred to as eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic procedure designed to remove excess or drooping skin from the upper or lower eyelids. The procedure can target excess skin, fat, or muscle to open the eyes, reduce eye bags, and give you a more youthful, refreshed look.

Blepharoplasty may also help improve vision if the excess upper eyelid skin interferes with sight.

What Is Blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin, muscle, and fat around the eyes and can be performed on the upper or lower eyelids, depending on the problem area.

The benefits of the procedure vary depending on whether it is performed on the upper or lower eyelid, but both options can result in a fresh, rejuvenated appearance.

Upper blepharoplasty: Eyelid lift

Typically, the procedure on the upper eyelids can open up hooded or drooping eyes and may eventually reduce forehead wrinkles.

Lower blepharoplasty: Eye bag treatment

The benefits of the procedure on the lower lids include reducing under-eye bags and puffiness, as well as greater facial symmetry.

Who is it for?

Blepharoplasty may be suitable for individuals who:

  • Have drooping upper eyelids
  • Experience puffiness or bags under the eyes
  • Have excess eyelid skin
  • Want to achieve a more refreshed appearance

A consultation with a qualified practitioner is necessary to determine whether the procedure is appropriate.

The eyelid procedure

The procedure begins with a detailed consultation and treatment plan. During surgery on the upper lids, a careful incision is made along the natural crease of the eyelid. For lower-lid treatment, the incision is precisely placed just below the lash line.

Once the incisions are made, any excess skin, fat and muscle are removed or repositioned before the openings are closed up.

Suture strips are often used to support the eyelids, which are removed around 1 week later. The procedure usually takes between one and two hours, depending on the treatment area, but most patients can expect to return home the same day.
