Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)

Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) removes excess skin and, where needed, repositions or reduces fat pads to refresh tired, hooded or puffy eyes. Upper-lid surgery lifts heaviness that can crowd the lash line, while lower-lid surgery addresses bags and puffiness. At Estéea it is performed under local anaesthesia, and patients on the clinic's reviews single out eyelid surgery for their satisfaction. The exact plan and price are agreed at consultation.

Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure to rejuvenate the eyelids by removing or repositioning the tissues that make the eyes look tired or aged. In upper-eyelid surgery, the surgeon removes a precise strip of excess, drooping skin — and sometimes a little muscle or fat — through an incision hidden in the natural crease of the lid, which opens up a hooded eye and can make the eyes look more rested and the lash line less crowded. In lower-eyelid surgery, the focus is on the bags and puffiness beneath the eye, where excess fat is reduced or repositioned and loose skin is refined, with incisions placed just below the lash line or inside the lid so scars are inconspicuous. At Estéea the procedure is performed under local anaesthesia. Fine sutures are used, and any external stitches are typically removed within about a week; bruising and swelling around the eyes are expected in the early days and settle over the following one to two weeks, with cool compresses and head elevation helping the recovery. The result is a fresher, more open and rested eye appearance that can take years off a tired expression, and because the changes are conservative the outcome looks natural. Blepharoplasty suits adults troubled by heavy, hooded upper lids that can even affect the field of vision, or by persistent under-eye bags and puffiness that creams and fillers cannot address. Upper, lower or both lids can be treated, and candidates are assessed individually for suitability and contraindications, with the price quoted at consultation according to the extent of surgery. Estéea's patients have specifically praised their eyelid-surgery results in published reviews.
