What is Eyelid Surgery?
Eyelid Surgery, also known as Blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of surplus skin from the eyelids. As people age, the eyelids tend to stretch and the underlying muscles become weaker. This can lead to the accumulation of excess skin and fat both above and below the eyelids, causing drooping eyebrows, sagging upper lids, and bags under the eyes.
Blepharoplasty is considered the gold standard for correcting these conditions, resulting in a more refreshed and youthful appearance. The surgery typically takes between 1 to 3 hours, during which the excess skin and/or fat is removed from the upper and/or lower eyelids.

How do we treat it?
1. Precise Incision Placement
We begin by making a careful incision along the natural skin lines of the eyelid. This ensures any scars remain fine and discreet, blending seamlessly into the natural crease of your eye.
2. Removal of Excess Skin & Fat
For upper eyelids, we remove excess skin & fat that can cause functional issues like peripheral vision loss, especially in the outer and upper visual fields. Lower eyelid surgery targets puffy bags & loose skin, creating a smoother, refreshed look.
3. Restore Function & Appearance
By eliminating excess tissue, blepharoplasty restores your natural eye contour while improving vision and reducing eye fatigue caused by drooping skin. The result? A brighter, more youthful appearance that feels as good as it looks.
4. Enhancing Skin Rejuvenation
To further enhance results, we may incorporate chemical peels or laser treatments during the procedure. These boost healing and improve skin texture, leaving you with smoother, revitalised skin around the eyes.
