What is Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)?
Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a procedure designed to improve the appearance of the upper and/or lower eyelids. It involves the removal of excess skin, fat, and muscle to correct drooping eyelids or under-eye bags, giving the eyes a more youthful and refreshed look. This surgery can also improve vision by removing obstructive skin in some cases.
Blepharoplasty is a popular procedure for those who want to address puffiness, bags, or sagging eyelids caused by ageing, genetics, or lifestyle factors. It’s not a substitute for a facelift but can complement other facial surgeries for more dramatic results.
What Happens During Surgery?
During eyelid surgery, incisions are made along natural lines of the eyelids—either in the creases of the upper eyelids or just below the lower lashes. Excess fat and skin are carefully removed, and the remaining tissues are tightened to improve the contour of the eyelids. In some cases, the lower eyelid muscles may be repositioned to reduce puffiness.
The surgery typically takes 1-2 hours, and recovery time is quick with minimal scarring, as the incisions are hidden within the eyelid’s natural folds.

FAQ's
During eyelid surgery, excess skin, fat, and muscle are removed to create a smoother, more youthful appearance. The incisions are hidden in the natural folds of the eyelids, making scars virtually invisible.
If you’re bothered by drooping eyelids or under-eye bags and are in good overall health, eyelid surgery may be an ideal option for you.
You can expect swelling and bruising for the first few days. Most people return to light activities within 1-2 weeks, but full recovery typically takes 4-6 weeks.
Scarring is minimal and usually well-hidden within the natural creases of the eyelids, so it’s not noticeable to others.
The results of eyelid surgery can last for many years, though the ageing process will continue. With proper care, you can maintain a youthful, refreshed appearance.
