Comparison

Two approaches to eyelid surgery

Surgery may involve the upper eyelids, the lower eyelids, or both in one operation, and the approaches differ in where the incision is made. The surgeon examines your lids at the consultation and helps you choose.

Upper blepharoplasty

Incision in the natural eyelid crease

Price at consultation

Main goal
Remove excess skin of the upper lids
Best suited when
Lids feel heavy, or skin folds rest on the lashes
Approach
Scar is hidden in the crease when the eye is open

Lower blepharoplasty

Incision below the lash line or inside the lid

Schematic of a lower eyelid with the incision line just under the lashes

Price at consultation

Main goal
Treat under-eye bags and loose lower-lid skin
Best suited when
There is puffiness, or loose skin under the eyes
Approach
Inside-the-lid approach has no skin incision, for fat

These are general descriptions of the methods. The surgeon examines you and then confirms the extent of surgery and the recovery for your case, as both depend on the individual.

Each step is explained by the surgeon, who builds a plan for your case at the consultation.

Free, before surgery and with no obligation.

Pre-operative preparation and tests

Preparation covers a review of your history and medicines by the surgeon, an eye assessment, photographs and standard tests. The surgeon alone instructs when blood-thinning medicines and supplements are stopped, and smoking should stop as advised.

The operation

Either local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia is used, as chosen by the surgeon and anaesthetist. The surgeon takes away excess skin and, where needed, repositions or removes small amounts of fat.

The first hours and days

Cold compresses and sleeping with the head raised help with the swelling and bruising around the eyes, which are normal. Whether you need to stay overnight is decided individually.

Recovery and follow-up

The final contour settles over several months, though swelling settles over the first couple of weeks. Non-dissolving stitches are usually removed within the first week, and the surgeon schedules follow-up checks.

In your consultation you will hear from the surgeon how the operation would go for you personally.

Preparation and recovery after blepharoplasty in Duisburg

Blepharoplasty is eyelid surgery. The surgeon removes excess skin and, where needed, repositions or removes small amounts of fat in the upper lids, the lower lids or both. People in Duisburg usually consider it for heavy, drooping upper lids, puffiness under the eyes or loose lower-lid skin, and the approach is decided after an examination.

The process begins with a free online consultation. You send photographs and talk with us from Duisburg, and the surgeon then examines the information and prepares an individual plan. Anaesthesia is chosen by the surgeon and anaesthetist according to the extent of surgery. Swelling and bruising around the eyes are normal and settle over the first couple of weeks.

You do not have to commit to anything to ask questions. Patients in Duisburg can message a coordinator on Telegram or WhatsApp at any time, and the first consultation is free. After the surgeon has examined your details and confirmed the plan, you are told the price, and only then do you decide whether to book.
