What Is Blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty, commonly known as eyelid surgery, is designed to improve the appearance and comfort of the upper and/or lower eyelids. It can be performed for both cosmetic enhancement and medical necessity.

The procedure can address:

● Loose or sagging skin that affects eyelid shape or vision
● Puffiness caused by fat pockets or ageing tissue
● Under-eye bags and wrinkles
● Tired or heavy-looking eyes
● Facial imbalance or asymmetry around the eyes

As the eyelid area is one of the first to show signs of ageing, blepharoplasty is a popular choice for restoring a youthful, rested look.

Blepharoplasty in Brighton – Treatment Options

At our Brighton clinic, we offer:

Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty

Ideal for lifting heavy or hooded upper lids that may interfere with vision or contribute to a tired appearance.

Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty

Designed to smooth the lower eye area by reducing bags, excess skin, or puffiness.

Combined Eyelid Surgery

For patients looking for full rejuvenation around both upper and lower lids.

During your assessment, we’ll explain which approach is most suitable based on your anatomy and expected results.

Your Blepharoplasty Journey in Brighton

01

Initial Consultation

At your first appointment, your surgeon will:
● Conduct a full examination of your eyelid structure and facial profile
● Discuss your goals and expectations
● Review relevant medical and visual history
● Explain recommended treatment options
● Outline risks, benefits, recovery and aftercare

02

Procedure

Blepharoplasty typically takes around 60–120 minutes, depending on complexity. Upper eyelid surgery is usually carried out under local anaesthesia. Lower eyelid surgery is often more comfortable under general anaesthetic.

03

Recovery

Most patients return to daily activities within 7–10 days. Bruising and swelling reduce gradually, and final results become clearer after several weeks as the tissues settle.

Who Is Suitable for Eyelid Surgery?

Blepharoplasty may be suitable if you:

● Notice drooping skin that affects your sight
● Feel your eyes look tired or aged despite rest
● Struggle with puffy lower lids or under-eye bags
● Want a subtle yet effective improvement in facial appearance

Our Brighton team will advise you on suitability and expected outcomes based on your individual clinical needs.
