What is Eyelid Surgery? Everything you Need to Know

Eyes are the window of the soul, and this proverb clearly highlights their importance. The skin and the muscle around the eyes lose their elasticity due to natural aging. This leads to the accumulation of skin that creates folds in the upper lids and also generates creases in the lower lids. 

In some cases, bags also develop under the eyes. These kinds of changes create a very unhappy look. Blepharoplasty surgery in Delhi at EVA Clinic is performed to get rid of these unsightly changes. 

The surgery is performed on either the upper eyelids or the lower eyelids, depending on the indication and nature of the patient’s concern. During this surgery, incisions are created on the upper eyelids, and excess skin is removed to correct hooded eyelids. Lower eyelid surgery involves an incision on the eyelash line for the correction of fat bags and repositioning of tissues to correct under-eye bags and hollowing.

Surgery time: The blepharoplasty in Delhi done at our clinic takes 1-2 hours. 

In this blog, let us know more about the surgery. 

Understanding the Two Types of Eyelid Surgeries 

Upper Eyelid Surgery 

If you have droopy lids and obstructed vision, upper eyelid surgery in Delhi is your best option. It helps to eliminate excess skin and fat that causes a hooded and tired appearance. The benefits of upper eyelid surgery include 

  • Restore a youthful and alert appearance 
  • Enhances eye symmetry 
  • Improves peripheral vision 
  • Creates a smooth eyelid crease. 

Lower Eyelid Surgery 

If you have under-eye bags and wrinkles around them, then lower eyelid surgery in Delhi addresses puffiness, wrinkles, and dark circles. The advantages of lower eyelid surgery are: 

  • Removes puffiness from under the eyes
  • Smoothes fine lines and wrinkles under the eyes
  • Reduces dark circles 

So, depending on the complications you are experiencing, your surgeon at Aestiva will curate a personalized plan for the blepharoplasty surgery in Delhi.

Combine Eyelid Surgery with Other Surgeries

Dr. Hiranmayi Jha, a leading blepharoplasty surgeon in Delhi, suggests the following treatments that can be performed in combination with upper and lower eyelid surgery: 

  • You can combine eyelid surgery in Delhi with a brow lift. 
  • You can also get a facelift surgery for entire facial rejuvenation. 
  • You can also consider getting laser skin resurfacing to enhance your skin texture and tone. 
  • You can combine blepharoplasty surgery in Delhi with botox and fillers for further facial enhancements. 

What is the cost of blepharoplasty surgery in Delhi? 

The cost of upper blepharoplasty surgery in Delhi is between INR 40,000 and INR 80,000. Similarly, the cost of lower blepharoplasty will be around INR 50,000 to 90,000. If you choose to get both the surgeries, then the cost will be around INR 150,000. 

The total cost of blepharoplasty surgery in Delhi involves: 

  • Doctors' fees
  • OT charges
  • Anesthesia cost 
  • Aftercare and medications 

The cost also depends on: 

  • The experience of the surgeon
  • The hospital’s accreditation
  • The city where the hospital is located 
  • Technique used for blepharoplasty 

But remember to ask your surgeon the following questions regarding the cost of the surgery:

  • What is included in the fee?
  • Are there any hidden costs?
  • Will I have to pay extra charges if something needs to be corrected later?

Is Blepharoplasty Permanent? 

Yes, you can rest assured that the results of blepharoplasty are long-lasting. For upper blepharoplasty, you can expect the results to last for 10 to 15 years, and for lower blepharoplasty too, the results last as long as the fat under the eye is either repositioned or removed. If you want to make the results last long, keep the following things in mind: 

  • Wear sunscreen around your eyes
  • Do not rub eyes harshly
  • Try to get proper sleep
  • Reduce the stress in life 
  • Use eye creams recommended by Dr Hiranmayi Jha
