What is it?

Blepharoplasty is eyelid surgery. On the upper eyelid it removes the excess skin that makes the eyes look tired and, in some cases, can even get in the way of vision. On the lower eyelid it corrects under-eye bags. The incisions follow the natural folds of the eye, so the scar is very well hidden.

    Frequently asked questions

    Are the scars visible?

    The incisions follow the natural eyelid crease or sit just below the lashes, so over time they become very discreet.

    When can I return to my activities?

    Many people return to light activities within a few days. The doctor will tell you when you can exercise again.

    Can I have upper and lower eyelids done together?

    Yes, both can be treated in the same procedure if your case requires it.

    How much does it cost?

    It depends on each case. After the assessment, the clinic will confirm the cost of your treatment.
