Brighten Your Eyes with Expert Eyelid Surgery

blepharoplasty

From ยฃ2,000ย  per eye ยท complimentary assessment

Blepharoplasty is a specialised eyelid surgery that rejuvenates the eyes by removing excess skin, fat, or muscle from the upper and/or lower eyelids. It helps restore a refreshed, youthful appearance and can also improve vision if droopy lids obstruct sight.

What is blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid lift surgery, is a procedure that removes sagging skin, fat, or muscle from the eyelids to improve both appearance and function. It can be performed on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or as a combined upper and lower eyelid surgery, depending on the patientโ€™s goals and clinical needs.

  • Consultation & Assessment
    Detailed evaluation of eyelid structure, vision, and cosmetic goals.
  • Surgical Planning
    Customised plan for upper, lower, or combined blepharoplasty.
  • Procedure Day
    Outpatient surgery performed under local anaesthesia or sedation.
  • Recovery Phase
    Initial swelling and bruising typically resolve in 1โ€“2 weeks.
  • Final Results
    Natural, rejuvenated results become fully visible within 4โ€“6 weeks.

Does this sound like you?

Blepharoplasty might be right for you if these everyday frustrations sound familiar:

You avoid eye makeup because it smudges or disappears into eyelid folds

Your eyes appear tired, even when youโ€™re well-rested

You find it hard to express emotions clearly due to hooded or heavy eyelids

You shy away from photos because of puffiness or under-eye bags

Youโ€™ve started using your fingers to lift your brow when applying skincare or makeup
