Eyelid Surgery
Getting more attractive eyes
Eyes are the window into the soul. It is also the most prominent feature for making a good first impression. Many women have opted to get double eyelids because it makes their eyes look more attractive and accentuates their overall facial features. The procedure is performed by tightening or removing excessive skin from upper and/or lower eyelids.
Benefits of Eyelid Surgery:
- Better eye symmetry
- Remove excess skin from upper eyelids
- Improves sight in older people with sagging eyelids impairing vision.
Types of Eyelid Surgery
Non incision Double Eyelid Surgery
Double Eyelid Surgery, also known as East Asian blepharoplasty, is done to create an eyelid crease where it’s often missing in many Asians. This procedure uses 5-6 small sutures to achieve a natural-looking double eyelid.
Benefits:
- Looks natural even when the eyes are closed
- Minimal scarring and swelling
- Quick recovery for a normal lifestyle.
Blepharoplasty Surgery
Blepharoplasty, which comes from the Greek word for Eyelid Surgery, can be done to fix droopy eyelids, get rid of fat pockets around the eyes, and remove excess eyelid skin.
While it’s commonly done for cosmetic reasons to enhance appearance, Blepharoplasty can also be medically necessary if sagging eyelids are obstructing your vision.

FAQs
Upper eyelid surgery can produce results that can last between five and ten years. Lower blepharoplasty may produce results that can last your entire lifetime. It is important to bear in mind the natural ageing process is not stopped with surgery, and the face will continue to show signs of ageing over time which may lead to the recurrence of eyelid laxity.
Eyelid surgery, also called blepharoplasty, is a permanent procedure that removes extra skin, fat, and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. The aim is to make the eyes appear more youthful, open, and refreshed.
Remember that aging is an ongoing process, and while surgery can enhance the eyes, it can’t stop aging. The results can last a long time, but the skin will continue to age, and the eyes may eventually return to their pre-surgery look.
Eyelid surgery doesn’t prevent wrinkles or fine lines in the surrounding areas of the eyes. Lifestyle choices like sun exposure, smoking, and diet can impact the surgery’s results.
It’s vital to have realistic expectations about the surgery’s outcome and consult with an experienced plastic surgeon to discuss the best options. Also, maintain a healthy lifestyle and protect the skin around the eyes from the sun to preserve the results of the surgery.
All surgical procedures will leave a scar, although the incision for an upper blepharoplasty is positioned in the natural crease of the upper eyelid. It may only be visible when your eyes are fully closed, and you will not be able to see the incision when your eyes are open. Eyelid surgery scars significantly improve over time so that they are virtually invisible after six months.
