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
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.
Should your concern be solvable without surgery, the surgeon will say so honestly. Surgery is considered only if it suits your health and goals.
Suitable
Heavy or drooping upper eyelids
Eyes that look tired or smaller than you feel
Skin folds resting on the lashes
Narrowed upper field of vision from skin folds
Puffiness or bags under the eyes
Loose skin of the lower eyelids
A wish for a calmer, more rested look
Not suitable
Uncontrolled high blood pressure or diabetes
Blood clotting disorders
Severe dry-eye disease
Active eye or skin infection
Unstable thyroid eye disease
Serious heart or lung disease
Pregnancy, breastfeeding, or under 18
Not sure which column applies to you?
Using Telegram or WhatsApp, send a coordinator your photos. The surgeon studies them and gives an opinion, and the decision about surgery stays entirely with you.
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.
2
Choosing and booking the date
You choose a convenient date after the plan and price are confirmed. At any hour, a coordinator is there to answer your questions and help with arrangements.
3
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.
4
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.
5
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.
6
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.
After examining your case, the surgeon suggests upper, lower or combined surgery according to your features. No option is offered by default.
Clear explanations before you decide
The surgeon explains recovery, the limits of the operation and the possible risks plainly, ahead of any decision. You may ask as many questions as you need.

Send a few photos with a message to a coordinator on Telegram or WhatsApp. Your first consultation costs nothing and obliges you to nothing, and the surgeon will look at your case and sketch a plan online.
The surgeon and anaesthetist decide whether anaesthesia is local with sedation or general. In the operation, excess skin is removed, small amounts of fat are repositioned or removed where needed, and muscle is sometimes tightened.
It is normal to have swelling and bruising, which settle over the first couple of weeks. Many people are back at desk work after one to two weeks. Follow the advice to avoid contact lenses, eye make-up, strenuous exercise and heavy lifting; every recovery is individual.
When the upper lids are treated, the incision lies in the natural eyelid crease and the scar is hidden with the eye open. When the lower lids are treated, it lies just below the lash line or inside the lid, without a skin incision.
It is the surgeon who explains the risks before surgery, including temporary dryness or irritation of the eyes, bruising, asymmetry, infection and scarring. Changes in vision, or difficulty closing the eyes fully, are rare.
You may be unsuitable for surgery, or need clearance first, with uncontrolled high blood pressure or diabetes, a clotting disorder, severe dry-eye disease, active infection, unstable thyroid eye disease, serious heart or lung disease, or pregnancy; the same is true under 18.
The final contour is reached gradually, settling over several months. While the result is long-lasting, natural ageing goes on. The operation neither lifts the eyebrows or cheeks nor removes pigmentation dark circles or fine wrinkles.
It is influenced by the extent of the surgery, for instance upper, lower or both lids, and by the type of anaesthesia chosen. Confirmation of the price comes after the surgeon's assessment and before you book.
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.
