Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)

Upper and lower eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) to correct drooping eyelids, under-eye bags, and excess skin, performed by Dr Marco Faria-Correa at Mount Elizabeth Novena Specialist Centre, Singapore.

Dr Marco Faria-Correa performs upper and lower blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) for both cosmetic and functional indications at his Mount Elizabeth Novena Specialist Centre practice. Upper eyelid surgery addresses excess skin (dermatochalasis), fatty deposits, and ptosis (drooping) that can impair peripheral vision as well as produce a tired or aged appearance. Lower eyelid surgery targets under-eye bags (herniated orbital fat), loose skin, and dark-circle shadowing. Combined upper and lower blepharoplasty is also available for patients seeking comprehensive periorbital rejuvenation. Procedures can be performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia depending on the extent of surgery and patient preference. Published price ranges for blepharoplasty in Singapore (as listed on the clinic's educational content) are SGD 3,000–6,000 for simple upper eyelid surgery, SGD 4,000–8,000 for lower eyelid surgery, and SGD 8,000–20,000 for complex combined procedures requiring additional corrections. MediSave may be applicable where functional impairment such as visual obstruction by the upper eyelid is documented by a specialist. Recovery is typically 7–14 days to return to work, with residual swelling subsiding over 4–6 weeks. Dr Marco's extensive training in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery ensures anatomically precise results that complement natural facial proportions.
