What Is Blepharoplasty?

Upper and lower eyelid, two separate procedures.

Upper and lower eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) are surgical procedures aimed at achieving a fresher and younger appearance by correcting the excess skin, fat pads and lax tissues around the eyes. They can be performed on their own or combined with a facelift, brow lift or midface lift.

Upper eyelid — what does it correct?

  • Excess skin on the upper eyelid
  • A feeling of heaviness in the eyelid
  • A puffy appearance due to fat herniation
  • In advanced cases, the appearance of eyelid droop affecting the field of vision

Upper eyelid — how is it performed?

The incision is placed in the natural crease line of the upper eyelid.

  • Excess skin is removed.
  • If necessary, excess fat tissue is adjusted.
  • The scar is generally concealed in the eyelid fold.

Lower eyelid — what does it correct?

  • Under-eye bags
  • Puffiness under the eyes
  • In some patients, under-eye hollowing and irregularities in the lid-cheek transition
Core Advantages

The concrete benefits of blepharoplasty.

Placement of the incision in the natural lid fold, the absence of any externally visible scar in the transconjunctival approach, and the possibility of combining it with other facial operations where necessary.

A natural eye-area appearance

By correcting the excess skin, fat pads and lax tissues around the eyes, a fresher and younger appearance is the aim.

A scar hidden in the lid fold

On the upper lid the incision is placed in the natural crease line of the eyelid; the scar is generally concealed in the lid fold.

No scar with the transconjunctival approach

When the incision on the lower lid is made from the inner surface (transconjunctival), there is no externally visible scar.

Relief of the field of vision

In advanced cases the excess skin on the upper lid may affect the field of vision; correcting this appearance is the aim.
