Upper Eyelift FAQs
What is an upper eyelift (blepharoplasty)?
Upper Blepharoplasty is the technical term used by surgeons to describe the operation to remove excess skin around the eyes.
It can usually be done under a local anaesthetic and will take about 45 mins. The wounds are very carefully stitched with a running stitch and this is removed in the clinic about 7 days later.
It is a relatively quick and simple cosmetic surgery and can be done as a day case.
You should not have upper eyelift procedure if...
You are overweight, with a BMI of over 32, smoke or vape, are in bad health and are taking anti-coagulant medication or are diabetic.
Will I be bruised and swollen?
There is nearly always some bruising for certain on the eyes as they are so very delicate but this does tend to settle pretty quickly and most ladies find that they can cover the worst of it with makeup in about 7 days. For men it means wearing sunglasses to cover up for a few days.
Is it suitable for everyone?
No. It is very important in your assessment to assess the position of the eyebrow. The heavy appearance can sometimes be due to the brow having slipped down and not excess skin in the eyelid.
A blepharoplasty is the wrong operation for a low brow as it will not correct the problem and could cause a very odd look. A brow lift would then be the correct operation and this is something that can be achieved in many different ways.
Botox can be used to lift the brow temporarily but must be repeated. Other ways use incisions in the brow or forehead to achieve a lift or it can form part of a facelift.
Will I have visible scars?
The scars from a Blepharoplasty are very well concealed in the natural lid crease that we all have and then it is placed into crows feet lines on the outside of the eye. Generally, all wounds are well healed by about 10 days.
Are there any risks with upper eyelift surgery?
All surgery carries a degree of risk. Bleeding and bruising are the main issues and rare risks are damage to the muscle that opens the eye.
Is it best to remove fat?
No. removal of too much fat will produce a hollowed and sunken eye that is not attractive. It also increases the danger of bleeding behind the eye, which is the most serious complication.
However, small bits of fat in the corner of the eye can be safely removed and can enhance the overall result.
What if I want to be asleep for the procedure?
You can have the operation done under General Anaesthesia but this is more expensive and involves you recovering from the GA. This is therefore usually only does when it is being perfumed in conjunction with other procedures
