Blepharoplasty (Upper & Lower Eyelid Surgery)
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate the eye area by removing excess skin and, where necessary, fat from the upper and/or lower eyelids. This procedure helps to correct drooping lids and under-eye bags, improving a tired or heavy look.
Who is Blepharoplasty for?
If you frequently hear that you "look tired" or feel your eye area appears aged or heavy, you may benefit from blepharoplasty. Depending on your facial structure, Consultant Plastic Surgeon Mr. Ho-Asjoe may also recommend complementary treatments such as a brow lift, Botox, or dermal fillers.
Blepharoplasty offers several aesthetic benefits, but also enhances vision addressing issues with excess skin, eyebags or droopy eyelids.
Blepharoplasty surgical process
- Performed under local or general anaesthetic
- Incisions are made along natural eyelid creases for discreet scarring
- Excess skin, fat, and muscle are removed with precision
- Procedure time: 1–2 hours
- May involve an overnight stay to reduce swelling and bruising
Is It permanent?
Yes. While blepharoplasty offers long-lasting results, it may not completely eliminate fine lines—these are better addressed with Botox. The procedure can be tailored to different ethnic anatomies, including Asian double eyelid surgery.
Recovery and aftercare
- Many return to work within 4–5 days
- Cool compresses and lymphatic massage can aid healing
- Some residual swelling may take longer to resolve
