Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)

Aesthetic surgery of the upper and lower eyelids by Dr Woffles Wu, correcting hooded lids, excess skin, puffiness, and ptosis to restore a refreshed and youthful eye appearance.

Dr Woffles Wu performs aesthetic eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) on both upper and lower lids at his Orchard Boulevard clinic. Upper blepharoplasty addresses hooded or heavy upper lids caused by excess skin or descended brow fat, removing redundant tissue to reveal a cleaner lid platform. For patients seeking double eyelid creation (a common request among Asian patients), Dr Wu offers both incisional and suture techniques, selected based on lid anatomy, skin thickness, and patient preference. Lower blepharoplasty corrects under-eye hollowing, tear trough deformity, and orbital fat prolapse (puffiness/bags), using either a transconjunctival approach (no external scar) or subciliary incision where excess skin removal is warranted. Ptosis correction — for drooping upper lids caused by levator muscle weakness — requires precise surgical technique to restore symmetrical lid height without overcorrection. Dr Wu's craniofacial background gives him particular insight into the bony orbital anatomy that underpins natural-looking eyelid results, and his outcomes consistently reflect a refreshed rather than operated appearance. The clinic also offers combination treatments pairing eyelid surgery with brow lifting or injectables to address the full periorbital complex. All procedures are performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia depending on the scope of surgery.
