📖 What is Blepharoplasty?
With age, the skin of the eyelids stretches, the muscles weaken and fat around the eyes pushes forward. This causes hooded upper lids, puffy bags under the eyes and a tired or older look. In some people the upper lid skin hangs so low that it blocks the top part of vision.
Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, removes or repositions extra skin, muscle and fat from the upper and/or lower eyelids. Cuts are hidden in the natural crease of the upper lid and just below the lashes or inside the lower lid (transconjunctival approach), so scars are barely visible. It gives a fresher, more alert look and can improve the field of vision. It does not remove crow's feet or lift sagging eyebrows – a brow lift or Botox may be combined for that.
🖼️ Understand It in Pictures
💡 In simple words
With age, eyelid skin stretches and fat can bulge, causing droopy upper lids or puffy bags under the eyes. Blepharoplasty removes or tightens the extra skin and fat to freshen the look and, if heavy lids block sight, can widen the view.

🩺 Conditions Treated
👁️
Droopy upper eyelids (dermatochalasis)
Extra upper lid skin that makes the eyes look tired or hooded.
🙈
Vision blocked by heavy lids
Skin hanging over the lashes and reducing the upper field of vision.
👝
Under-eye bags
Puffy lower lids caused by bulging fat pads.
🌑
Tear trough hollows and dark circles
Hollows under the eyes improved by fat repositioning.
😴
Tired or aged appearance
General ageing changes around the eyes.
🔁
Asymmetry or previous surgery
Uneven eyelids or correction of earlier eyelid surgery.
⚠️ Signs You May Benefit
- ➤Heavy, hooded upper eyelids
- ➤Skin touching the eyelashes
- ➤Difficulty applying eye make-up
- ➤Puffy bags under the eyes
- ➤Looking tired even when rested
- ➤Fine wrinkles on the lower lids
- ➤Reduced upper vision
- ➤Raising eyebrows to see clearly
💡 Surgery is not always the first choice. Mild dark circles or fine lines may improve with fillers, laser or chemical peels. If the eyebrows themselves have dropped, a brow lift may be needed instead of, or along with, eyelid surgery. True eyelid muscle droop (ptosis) needs a different repair, so the surgeon checks this first.
🔬 Tests Before Treatment
| Test | Why it is done |
|---|---|
| Eye and eyelid examination | Measures skin excess, fat bags, lid position and brow position. |
| Visual field test (if needed) | Documents vision blocked by droopy lids. |
| Dry eye test (Schirmer test) | Checks tear production, as dry eyes can worsen after surgery. |
| Eye pressure and vision check | Rules out other eye problems. |
| Blood tests, ECG | Fitness for anaesthesia, especially over 40 years. |
| Standard photographs | For planning and before-after comparison. |
🏥 The Procedure — Step by Step
1
Consultation
The surgeon examines your eyes, discusses goals and marks the planned cuts.
2
Admission
Pre-operative checks are done and blood thinners are stopped in advance.
3
Anaesthesia
Local anaesthesia with sedation, or general anaesthesia if combined with other procedures.
4
Upper lid incision
A cut is made in the natural crease of the upper lid.
5
Upper lid correction
Extra skin, a strip of muscle and some fat are removed.
6
Lower lid approach
A cut is made inside the lid or just below the lashes.
7
Lower lid correction
Fat is removed or moved into the hollow; extra skin is trimmed.
8
Closure
Fine stitches or skin glue close the cuts.
9
Recovery and cold packs
Cold compresses and eye ointment reduce swelling.
10
Discharge and stitch removal
Discharge after 2 days; stitches removed around day 5–7.
⚖️ Types & Techniques
| Technique | What is done | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Upper blepharoplasty | Skin, muscle and fat removed from the upper lid crease | Hooded or heavy upper lids |
| Lower transconjunctival | Fat removed or repositioned from inside the lid – no visible scar | Under-eye bags with good skin quality |
| Lower transcutaneous | Cut just below the lashes; skin and fat trimmed | Bags with loose, wrinkled lower lid skin |
| Four-lid blepharoplasty | Upper and lower lids on both eyes together | Overall eye rejuvenation |
| Asian (double eyelid) blepharoplasty | Creates an upper lid crease | Patients wanting a defined lid fold |
📊 Large reviews in plastic surgery literature report high patient satisfaction after blepharoplasty, with serious vision-threatening complications such as retrobulbar haemorrhage occurring in about 1 in 2,000–10,000 cases.

| Visual field improvement (functional cases) | Most patients improve |
| Results lasting | Upper lids about 10+ years; lower lids often permanent |
| Need for revision | About 2–5% |

Frequently Asked Questions
Upper eyelid surgery is good for at least 5-7 years. Lower eyelid surgery rarely needs to be repeated. Eyes will still age after the procedure. If your lids sag again, a forehead lift rather than another eye lift may be the preferred procedure.
