Additional information
Upper Blepharoplasty + ptosis correction
During upper blepharoplasty, an incision is made along a pre-designed line that follows the natural eyelid crease. Through this incision, excess skin and fat are carefully removed.
The levator muscle, which is responsible for lifting the eyelid, is then adjusted as needed to improve eyelid function. The incision is subsequently sutured along the natural crease.
This procedure helps strengthen the eyelid’s lifting function, reduce sagging skin, and create a clearer, more defined double-eyelid line.

FAQ
What is blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery, eye lift)?
Blepharoplasty is a plastic surgery for the eyelid modification, defects correction and aesthetic improvement of the eye region.
During the procedure, the doctor removes the excess skin around the eyes and modifies the eyelid according to the patient's preferences and anatomic features.
Blepharoplasty can also correct the eye muscle function.
The procedure can be performed on the upper lids, lower lids, or both.
Does eyelid surgery fit me?
Yes, if you are at least 18 years old (recommended age is 35+) and:
- don't have medical conditions that can interrupt healing process
- do not smoke or ready to quit before the surgery and during the rehab time.
Blepharoplasty is a bad option for people who:
- have glaucoma, diabetes, circular disorders, high blood pressure
- smoke and don't want to quit.
How to prepare for blepharoplasty?
According to ASPS:
Before the operation, you have an appointment with the plastic surgeon and take medical tests. Also, you should take certain drugs and avoid taking anti-inflammatory pills and herbal supplements.
Getting appointment with the doctor, you will get recommendations according to your individual needs.
What are the steps of blepharoplasty?
According to ASPS, the steps of the eyelid surgery are:
- Anesthesia. Specialists commonly use general anesthesia or intravenous sedation. The doctor recommends the best option according to the patient's medical test results.
- The eyelid forming. During the operation, the doctor makes an incision refer to the patient's facial structure. The upper eyelid is commonly corrected through the natural crease and the lower one — through the lower lashline. Such locations help to cover scars up the natural eyelid texture.
- The incision closing. After the eyelid modification, the doctor closes the incision with the skin glue or sutures.
How to recover after eye lift?
Doctors recommend to avoid reading for 2-3 days after the surgery.
For people who use contact lenses following the doctor's recommendations is essential. The usage of lenses is safe only in two weeks after the eye lift.
Also, it's better to reduce alcohol intake for three weeks after intervention. It will speed up sutures healing.
What to expect after blepharoplasty?
Swelling and bruising usually last for 10-14 days after the surgery. A complete recovery takes a few months.
The result after blepharoplasty is long-lasting. But it's important to remember that the aging process continues. It means that for some patients the result of the eyelid surgery won’t be permanent.
The procedure can be repeated according to the individual needs.
