What is Eyelid Surgery?

Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure designed to rejuvenate the eyes by removing excess skin, fat, and muscle around the upper and lower eyelids. This surgery helps correct drooping eyelids, under-eye bags, and puffiness, giving the eyes a more alert, youthful appearance. Blepharoplasty can also improve vision if sagging eyelids obstruct the field of vision.

It is especially popular among men who want to maintain a masculine look while addressing the signs of aging or tiredness around the eyes. The surgery is tailored to suit the natural shape of the male eye, ensuring a refreshed, masculine result.

What Happens During Surgery?

Eyelid surgery is typically performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia, depending on the extent of the surgery. For upper eyelid surgery, an incision is made in the natural crease of the eyelid to remove excess skin and fat. Lower eyelid surgery involves making an incision just below the lash line or inside the eyelid to remove fat and tighten loose skin.

The procedure usually takes 1 to 2 hours, and any excess fat or sagging skin is carefully removed to restore a youthful, open appearance. The incisions are made in discreet locations to minimise visible scarring. After the procedure, your eyes will be bandaged, and you will be closely monitored during recovery.

Is Eyelid Surgery Right for Me?

Eyelid surgery is ideal for men who have excess skin, puffiness, or drooping around the eyes due to aging, genetics, or other factors. The procedure can help men look more rested and alert while maintaining a masculine appearance. It is essential to be in good health and have realistic expectations for the results of the surgery.

Male eyelid surgery offers several advantages. It helps to remove excess skin and fat around the eyes, providing a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance. The procedure can also address drooping eyelids that impair vision, improving both function and aesthetics. Tailored specifically for men, the surgery preserves a masculine look while addressing signs of ageing. The recovery is relatively quick, with most patients returning to work within a week and experiencing minimal downtime. The results are long-lasting, keeping you looking refreshed for years.
Although eyelid surgery is generally safe, there are a few potential risks. Infection is rare but can occur, and it can usually be managed with proper aftercare. Scarring is minimised by making incisions in discreet locations, but some small scars may remain. Temporary dryness or irritation in the eyes may occur during recovery, but it usually resolves over time. In rare cases, asymmetry or changes in the shape of the eyelids may require a follow-up procedure to correct.
