Blepharoplasty, commonly known as eyelid surgery, is a procedure designed to improve the appearance of the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. It may address excess skin, fatty tissue, or changes in the eyelid area associated with ageing. In some cases, upper eyelid surgery may also help improve vision when excess skin significantly affects the field of view. At Bombay Hospital Jaipur, treatment is planned according to your eyelid anatomy, facial features, functional concerns, and individual goals.
What Can Eyelid Surgery Address?
Blepharoplasty may help improve concerns such as:
Excess or drooping skin on the upper eyelids Under-eye bags caused by protruding fat Loose skin around the lower eyelids Asymmetry between the eyelids An aged or tired appearance around the eyes
A detailed assessment is important to determine whether eyelid surgery is appropriate and whether other factors, such as brow position or tear-trough changes, contribute to the appearance.
During upper eyelid surgery, excess skin and, when appropriate, underlying fat may be removed or repositioned. Lower eyelid surgery may involve removing or repositioning fat and addressing excess skin depending on the individual's anatomy.
The surgical approach and incision placement are tailored to the patient's eyelid structure. Your surgeon will discuss the expected outcome, potential risks, scarring, and recovery before the procedure.
Swelling and bruising around the eyes are common after blepharoplasty and generally improve gradually. Temporary tightness, dryness, or changes in sensation may occur during healing. Patients are advised to follow postoperative instructions and attend follow-up appointments.
