Do you fear the effects of aging when you realize eye-bags and wrinkles around your eyes are now starting to appear? Or do you have small and uneven eyes since birth and you are unhappy with them?

Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid lift is just the right treatment for you. It is the plastic surgery performed to correct any deformity at the eyelids, resulting in more aesthetically-pleasing eyelids or eyes.

This surgery is a technique to create a crease in the upper eyelid, giving a bigger eye look by having double lid. It is a famous procedure especially among those who have monolid feature.

In terms of anesthesia, you have the freedom to opt for local or general anaesthesia.

This procedure helps to reduce bagginess from lower eyelids and removes excess skin from the upper eyelid. In addition, the surgery is able to remove fatty deposits that appear as puffiness in the eyelid, bags under the eyes, and eliminate fine wrinkles of the lower eyelid.

Lower eyelid surgery involves reducing the bagginess under the eyes. It can help eliminate excess skin, eye bags and any fine wrinkles at the lower eyelid. Upper eyelid surgery helps remove fatty deposits in the upper eyelid (resulting in less puffier eyes) and also defines the natural contour of the upper eyelid.

Typical blepharoplasty procedure is as follows:

1. Anaesthesia will be administered.
