OVERVIEW

What is Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty?

Upper eyelid blepharoplasty, often referred to as upper eyelid surgery or drooping eyelid surgery, is a specialised procedure designed to address excess skin and fat in the upper eyelid region. This surgery effectively corrects issues such as dropping eyelids that may give a fatigued or aged appearance and puffiness that can disrupt the natural contour of the eyes. By removing this tissue, the procedure revitalises the overall look of the eyes while addressing functional concerns, such as impaired vision caused by sagging eyelids. The result is a more defined and youthful eye shape that harmonises with the patient’s facial aesthetics.

Discover the Benefits of This Upper Eyelid Surgery

Our cure for under eye bags offers a range of advantages for those seeking functional and aesthetic improvements. This procedure has gained popularity among patients who experience issues such as dropping eyelids, vision obstructions, or an aged appearance around the eyes. This upper eyelid operation enhances a patient’s physical well-being while boosting their self-confidence and quality of life. Below, we outline some of the key benefits, highlighting how this procedure achieves remarkable results:

  • Improved Vision—Excess skin on the upper eyelids can sometimes obstruct peripheral vision, which impacts daily activities. Upper eyelid surgery removes the extra tissue and restores a clear, unobstructed field of view.
  • Youthful Appearance—Loose or sagging eyelids often contribute to a tired, aged appearance. This procedure tightens and smooths the area, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
  • Enhanced Eye Comfort – The surgery alleviates discomfort caused by eyelid heaviness and persistent strain. Patients often experience significant relief, reducing the physical burden of sagging skin.
  • Boosted Self-Confidence—Many report increased self–esteem after rejuvenating their appearance and functional improvement. They feel more confident about their appearance in social interactions or professional environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to our frequently asked questions

Patients can typically have an Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty performed and go home the same day.

The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic or sedation (you are asleep but breathe for yourself) or the patient can choose to be asleep with a general anaesthetic.

The incision is done on the upper eyelid in a crease of the lid, extending towards the crow’s feet on the outer side around the eye.

The incision scar once healed is hidden in a crease of the skin.

This allows the muscle and fat below and optimise the result.

The result of upper eyelid surgery can be optimised with fat grafting for patients with hollowness which can be performed at a second stage.

Patients who either do not have or have never had the angle between the jawline and the neck (cervico-mental angle). 

Colloquially, this may be known as a turkey neck. There may be volume from fat under the chin. 

If there is minimal fat, the ageing process may mean that there is loose skin with bands running across the front of the neck, typically from the chin to the collarbones.  

Some patients may have a genetic predisposition to this (Young people with necks) or most commonly, age-related loosening of the skin.

When patients come into the clinic, our UK-trained plastic surgeon, makes a full assessment of the patient.

This includes any relevant history, including reasons for surgery and a thorough examination including the brow and the upper eyelid itself.

Part of this process is explaining to the patients what can be done, why, and what to expect, based on each patients’ anatomy and suitability for each type of Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty.

There are not many options for the treatment of fullness of skin and muscle in the upper eyelid at present apart from surgery.

Patients can check their suitability for an Upper Eyelid blepharoplasty by standing in front of a mirror and while pinching the extra skin on one upper eyelid whilst comfortably close the same eye, that doesn’t result in any pulling sensation.

Sundar Ramanathan

I've been struggling with alopecia for 10 years now and it became alot worse after I had my baby. I took a chance to get a consultation at Kliniken and I'm so grateful that I did. The doctors were so meticulous in analysing my problem and they suggested a treatment. 4 months later and I'm happy to say that I've noticed such a significant improvement in my scalp health and hair growth . Thank you Kliniken !!

Dharshana Sundar

My visit to Kliniken was very positive. The clinic is in such a lovely location it immediately makes you feel relaxed. The ambience inside is equally relaxing not like a normal ‘hospital’. It was a bit of a nerve wracking experience for me but the surgeon I met was so lovely and made me feel at ease. I didn’t feel any pressure at all. Overall would highly recommend!
