Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)
Refresh tired, heavy or puffy eyes
Blepharoplasty removes excess skin, muscle and fat from the upper and/or lower eyelids to correct hooding, puffiness and under-eye bags — often the single change that makes a face look most visibly rested.
Upper eyelid surgery addresses skin that droops over the lash line, sometimes affecting vision; lower eyelid surgery targets under-eye bags and puffiness. Both can be performed together or separately.
Key Benefits
- More open, alert eye appearance
- Reduction in upper eyelid hooding that can impair vision
- Correction of under-eye puffiness and bags
- Subtle, natural-looking results
Is This Treatment Right For You?
- Patients with drooping upper eyelid skin
- Those with persistent under-eye bags unrelated to sleep or hydration
- Adults seeking a refreshed, non-surgical-resistant result
What to Expect
Assessment
Evaluation of skin excess, fat herniation and, if relevant, visual field impact.
Surgery
Incisions follow natural eyelid creases to conceal scarring.
Recovery
Cold compresses reduce swelling in the first days after surgery.
Follow-Up
Sutures (if non-dissolving) are removed within about a week.
Recovery & Aftercare
Bruising and swelling largely resolve within 10-14 days, with most patients comfortable returning to work after about a week using concealer if needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will this affect my ability to close my eyes?
Conservative tissue removal preserves normal eyelid function — this is carefully planned during your consultation.
Does this treat dark circles?
Blepharoplasty addresses puffiness and excess skin/fat, not pigmentation-related dark circles, which may need a separate treatment.
At what age is this typically done?
It varies widely — some patients pursue it in their 30s for hereditary puffiness, others later for age-related changes.
