Upper eyelid blepharoplasty at V CLINIC Brno removes excess skin and fat from the upper eyelid through an incision placed along the natural eyelid crease, extended slightly laterally. The result is a more open, rested eye appearance and — in patients where drooping lids impair the visual field — functional improvement as well. V CLINIC performs over 400 upper eyelid procedures per year, with MUDr. Tomáš Ventruba or MUDr. Filip Raška performing the surgery under local anaesthesia. The 30–45 minute outpatient procedure uses fine sutures that are removed at day 7, with final results visible in one to two months.

The surgical approach places an incision along the natural upper eyelid crease, extended slightly upward and outward laterally to follow the eye's contour. Through this single incision, excess skin is excised and prominent fat pockets are carefully removed or redistributed to create a smooth, natural lid contour. The surgeon takes care to create a slight almond-eye shape and to minimise any tension on closure that could cause the eye to look unnatural at…
