Comparison

Two approaches to eyelid surgery

Both the upper and the lower lids can be treated in one operation, or just one pair. The incision is placed in different places depending on the approach. The surgeon will help you choose after examining your lids at the consultation.

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.

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.

Not sure which column applies to you?

Process

From your first message to recovery: the steps

Before each stage begins, it is explained to you, so you always know the next step and who to turn to.

Online consultation and plan

Online, you share photos and speak with the surgeon. Your wishes are discussed together, and a plan is outlined for the upper eyelids, the lower eyelids, or both.

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

Anaesthesia is either local with sedation or general, and the surgeon and anaesthetist choose which. In the operation, the surgeon removes excess skin and, where needed, moves or removes small amounts of fat.

The first hours and days

Swelling and bruising around the eyes are normal. Cold compresses and sleeping with the head raised help, and whether you stay overnight is decided individually.

Recovery and follow-up

The surgeon schedules follow-up checks. Swelling settles over the first couple of weeks, non-dissolving stitches are usually removed within the first week, and the final contour takes several months to settle.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about eyelid surgery

Upper, lower or combined: choosing your operation in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

Who considers blepharoplasty? Usually people whose upper lids look heavy or droop, whose lower lids show puffiness, or whose lower-lid skin has loosened. If you are in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and one of these describes you, the surgeon can explain what the operation can change. It is eyelid surgery only, and the plan is made individually.

There is no need to arrange anything in person at the start. From Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, you have a video or message conversation and send clear photos of your eyes and face. The surgeon uses them to outline the operation, the anaesthesia and the recovery. Contact lenses and eye make-up are avoided for a couple of weeks after surgery.

Our coordinators work 24/7 on Telegram and WhatsApp, so a question from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria 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.
