UPPER BLEPHAROPLASTY | LIFT HEAVY EYELIDS & LOOK YOUNGER
OVERVIEW BLEPHAROPLASTY Blepharoplasty, commonly known as eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic procedure designed to improve the appearance of the eyelids. It can be performed on the upper lids, lower lids, or both. The upper blepharoplasty surgery addresses issues such as drooping upper eyelids, excess skin, and puffiness, which can result from aging, genetics, or lifestyle factors.
PROCEDURE DETAILS During blepharoplasty, the surgeon removes or repositions excess skin, muscle, and fat. Incisions are typically made along the natural creases of the eyelids to minimize visible scarring. For upper eyelid surgery, the incision is hidden in the natural fold, while for lower eyelid surgery, the incision is made just below the lash line or inside the lower eyelid.
ANAESTHESIA Blepharoplasty can be performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia. The choice of anesthesia depends on the extent of the surgery and the patient’s preference, which will be discussed during the consultation.
