Blepharoplasty is an ideal choice for individuals who want to address concerns such as drooping eyelids, excess skin or fat in the eyelid area, puffiness, and under-eye bags. This procedure can help improve the appearance of tired, aged eyes and provide a more youthful and rejuvenated look. Blepharoplasty can also enhance your vision if sagging eyelids obstruct your line of sight.
Blepharoplasty involves the precise removal of excess skin, fat, and muscle from the eyelid area. The procedure can be performed on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both, depending on your specific concerns and goals. Our skilled surgeons will make carefully placed incisions along the natural creases of the eyelids to minimise scarring and achieve natural-looking results.
At Profile Aesthetic, blepharoplasty is typically performed on an outpatient basis under local anaesthetic. The procedure involves making incisions in the natural creases of the eyelids to minimise scarring. From there, excess skin and fat are carefully removed to create a smoother, more youthful appearance. It is often necessary to tighten lax muscle at the same time.
For upper eyelid surgery, the incision is made in the crease of the eyelid. Excess skin and sometimes fat are removed. The procedure can be performed quite comfortably under local anaesthetic alone.
Lower lid surgery is more complex than upper blepharoplasty and is usually performed under local anaesthetic and sedation. The incision is made just below the lash line, and excess skin, muscle, and fat are removed or repositioned to reduce puffiness and sagging. In some cases, the incision can be made from inside the eyelid (called a transconjunctival incision) so that it is completely hidden.
To maximise results, we recommend combining blepharoplasty with laser resurfacing, to rejuvenate the whole peri-orbital region. Blepharoplasty can also be combined with fat transfer to restore lost volume or with other cosmetic procedures such as a facelift.
Blepharoplasty offers several benefits, including a more refreshed and youthful appearance, improved eyelid contour, reduced puffiness, and elimination of under-eye bags. The procedure can help restore a more rested and alert look to your eyes, enhancing your overall facial harmony and boosting your self-confidence.
On the day of the procedure, you will arrive at our clinic, and our caring staff will guide you through the process. Your surgeon will confirm the details of the procedure with you and together you will complete a consent form. The surgeon will precisely measure the amount of skin to be removed and will take preoperative photographs. The surgical team will perform the blepharoplasty surgery according to your personalised treatment plan. Upper lid blepharoplasty procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia and sedation is recommended for lower lid blepharoplasty to ensure your comfort throughout.
Following the recovery period, you can expect a more refreshed and rejuvenated appearance of your eyes. Blepharoplasty can help eliminate drooping eyelids, reduce puffiness and under-eye bags, and provide a more youthful and alert look. With our expert surgeons the results of blepharoplasty are long-lasting, and with proper skincare and sun protection, you can enjoy the benefits for many years.
