Comparison

Two approaches to eyelid surgery

Blepharoplasty may be carried out on the upper lids, the lower lids, or both at once. The approaches are distinguished by the position of the incision. At the consultation the surgeon examines your lids and helps you choose.

Upper blepharoplasty

Best suited when

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

Only general terms are used to describe the methods. Both the extent of surgery and recovery differ between patients; the surgeon confirms them for you following an examination.

The surgeon prepares a plan for your case at the consultation and explains every step.

Process

From your first message to recovery: the steps

Pre-operative preparation and tests

The surgeon goes through your medical history and medicines with you. An eye assessment, photographs and standard tests follow, and smoking should be stopped as advised.

The operation

Surgery is done under local anaesthesia with sedation or under general anaesthesia, chosen by the surgeon and anaesthetist. The surgeon removes excess skin and, where needed, repositions or removes small amounts of fat.

The first hours and days

It is normal to have swelling and bruising around the eyes. Cold compresses and sleeping with your head raised help, and an overnight stay is decided individually.

Recovery and follow-up

Usually within the first week, stitches that do not dissolve are removed. Swelling settles over the first couple of weeks, follow-up checks are scheduled by the surgeon, and the final contour settles over several months.

How the operation goes in your case is something the surgeon explains at the consultation.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about eyelid surgery

Risks, suitability and assessment: eyelid surgery in Krakow

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 Krakow 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.

After the operation, cold compresses and sleeping with the head raised help with swelling. Stitches that do not dissolve are usually removed within the first week. Many people return to desk work after one to two weeks, though recovery is individual. Everything starts with an online conversation for patients in Krakow, and the surgeon explains each step.

Our coordinators work 24/7 on Telegram and WhatsApp, so a question from Krakow never has to wait for office hours. Send your photographs, take part in the free first consultation and hear the surgeon's view. The price is confirmed after the surgeon's assessment, before you book.
