Procedure

How blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) works.

A step-by-step look at what happens during this procedure.

1

Anaesthesia Administration

Local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia is administered to ensure patient comfort throughout the procedure.

2

Incision Placement

For upper lids, incisions are made along the natural eyelid crease. For lower lids, incisions are placed just below the lash line or inside the eyelid (transconjunctival approach).

3

Tissue Removal and Repositioning

Excess skin, fat, and sometimes muscle are carefully removed or repositioned to eliminate puffiness and sagging while maintaining natural eyelid contours.

4

Incision Closure

Incisions are meticulously closed with fine sutures or surgical adhesive, placed to minimize visible scarring along natural skin folds.

5

Recovery Monitoring

Patients are monitored briefly in recovery before being discharged with detailed post-operative care instructions and follow-up appointments scheduled.

Recovery

Recovery & aftercare.

What to expect at each stage of your recovery journey.

Immediate Post-Operative (Days 1-7)Early Recovery (Weeks 1-3)Complete Recovery (Months 1-6)

Immediate Post-Operative (Days 1-7)

Expect swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort around the eyes. Apply cold compresses, keep head elevated, use prescribed eye drops and ointments, and avoid strenuous activities. Bruising typically peaks at 48-72 hours.

Early Recovery (Weeks 1-3)

Swelling and bruising gradually diminish. Sutures are removed around day 5-7. Vision may be slightly blurry initially due to ointments and swelling. Light activities can resume after 7-10 days, but avoid heavy lifting and vigorous exercise.

Complete Recovery (Months 1-6)

Residual swelling continues to resolve, incision lines fade and mature, and final aesthetic results become apparent. Scars typically become barely visible along natural eyelid creases. Full tissue settling and optimal contour refinement occur by 3-6 months.

Outcomes

Success & outcomes.

Rejuvenated Eye Appearance

Patients achieve a more youthful, refreshed, and alert appearance with reduction of under-eye bags, elimination of excess upper lid skin, and brighter, more open eyes.

Improved Peripheral Vision

For patients with severe upper lid drooping, blepharoplasty can significantly improve peripheral and superior visual fields that were previously obstructed by sagging skin.

Enhanced Facial Harmony

By restoring natural eyelid contours and reducing signs of aging, the procedure creates better balance and proportion with other facial features, enhancing overall aesthetic appeal.

Long-Lasting Results

While aging continues naturally, blepharoplasty results typically last 7-10 years or longer, with many patients experiencing permanent improvement in eyelid appearance and function.

Myths vs Facts

Common misconceptions.

Let's clear up some of the most common myths about blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery).

What happens if blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) is delayed?

  • Untreated drooping eyelids and excess skin can progressively worsen with age, potentially leading to more severe functional vision impairment and increased difficulty with daily activities requiring peripheral vision. Aesthetically, persistent eyelid aging creates a chronically tired or aged appearance that may affect self-confidence and social interactions. In severe cases of upper lid ptosis, compensatory forehead muscle overuse can lead to chronic headaches and eyebrow strain.
