Comparison

Two approaches to eyelid surgery

In blepharoplasty, one operation may cover the upper eyelids, the lower eyelids, or both. Approaches vary by incision placement. The choice is made with the surgeon at the consultation, after your lids are examined.

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

This is a general description of the methods. Both the extent of surgery and the recovery vary from patient to patient, and the surgeon confirms them for your case after an examination.

The surgeon uses the consultation to build a plan for your case, explaining each step as they go.

Free, before surgery and with no obligation.

Process

From your first message to recovery: the steps

Ahead of every stage you receive an explanation, so the next step is clear and you know who to ask.

1

Online consultation and plan

The surgeon talks with you online and looks at your photos. Once your wishes are discussed, a plan is outlined for the upper lids, the lower lids, or both together.

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

Local anaesthesia with sedation, or general anaesthesia, is used for the operation; the surgeon and anaesthetist make the choice. The surgeon takes out excess skin and, where needed, repositions or takes out small amounts of fat.

The first hours and days

Normal swelling and bruising appear around the eyes. To help, use cold compresses and sleep with the head raised; whether you remain overnight is decided for each person individually.

Recovery and follow-up

Follow-up checks are arranged by the surgeon. The swelling goes down over the first couple of weeks, stitches that do not dissolve usually come out within the first week, and it takes several months for the final contour to settle.

At your consultation, the surgeon sets out the steps of the operation as they apply to you.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about eyelid surgery

Online consultation and planning for Düsseldorf residents

When the upper eyelids grow heavy, the eyes can look tired or smaller, and a fold of skin resting on the lashes may narrow the upper field of vision. If you live in Düsseldorf and recognise this, eyelid surgery may be worth discussing. The surgeon removes excess skin and sometimes a little fat, and in some cases tightens muscle.

Before any decision, the surgeon reviews your photographs and medical history. Patients in Düsseldorf take part in a free online consultation, and the plan is written for you individually. Preparation includes a review of your medicines, an eye assessment and standard tests. Blood-thinning medicines and supplements are stopped only on the surgeon's instructions.

Step one is a message. Choose Telegram or WhatsApp, write to a coordinator and arrange your free online consultation. Anyone in Düsseldorf can do this in a few minutes. The surgeon then reviews the photos and confirms the plan and the price, and you book only once both are clear to you.
