Upper blepharoplasty is designed to reduce excess skin around the upper eyelids. The aim is not to change your face, but to create a fresher, more rested appearance that remains natural and balanced.
Loose or heavy upper-eyelid skin can make the eye area appear tired even when you feel well rested. Surgery may create a clearer and more defined upper-eyelid contour.
Treatment is planned around your individual facial features. The surgeon’s goal is to refresh the eye area without creating an over-corrected or noticeably altered appearance.
Some patients feel that excess eyelid skin makes them appear more tired or older than they feel. A subtle correction may help restore confidence while preserving their recognisable appearance.
Where excess upper-eyelid skin interferes with the visual field, blepharoplasty may provide a functional benefit as well as an aesthetic improvement. Medical suitability must be confirmed by the surgeon.
You may wish to request an assessment if you have loose or heavy upper eyelid skin, drooping eyelids, reduced definition around the eyes or a consistently tired appearance.
Some patients also experience practical difficulties, such as excess skin interfering with make-up application or affecting the upper visual field.
