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
Because the extent of surgery and the recovery depend on the individual patient, the methods are described generally here. The surgeon confirms both for your case after examining you.
The consultation is where the surgeon draws up your plan and talks you through each step.
An operation is considered only when it suits your health and goals. If your concern can be solved without surgery, the surgeon will say so honestly.
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

Not sure which column applies to you?
A coordinator receives your photos in Telegram or WhatsApp and passes them to the surgeon. The surgeon gives an opinion, and you are under no obligation to have surgery.
Explanations come before each stage, so that you know what to expect next and who to ask about it.
1
Online consultation and plan
The consultation is online: you send photos and speak with the surgeon. After discussing your wishes together, the surgeon outlines a plan covering the upper lids, lower lids, or both.
2
Choosing and booking the date
Once you have the confirmed plan and price, you decide on a date that fits you. Whatever the hour, a coordinator can answer questions and help with arrangements.
3
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.
4
The operation
During surgery, you receive local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia, as chosen by the surgeon and anaesthetist. Excess skin is removed, and small amounts of fat are repositioned or removed where needed.
5
The first hours and days
Some swelling and bruising around the eyes is normal. Help comes from cold compresses and sleeping with the head raised, while an overnight stay depends on the individual.
6
Recovery and follow-up
Over the first couple of weeks the swelling settles, and stitches that do not dissolve are usually taken out within the first week. Follow-up checks are scheduled by the surgeon, and the final contour settles over several months.
Your surgeon talks you through the operation as it applies to you during the consultation.
Contact a coordinator through Telegram or WhatsApp and share a few photos; the surgeon will review your case online and outline a plan. The first consultation is free and entails no obligation.
The surgeon takes out excess skin, and where needed moves or removes small amounts of fat, with muscle sometimes tightened. Local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia is selected by the surgeon together with the anaesthetist.
Recovery is individual. Swelling and bruising are normal and settle over the first couple of weeks, and many people return to desk work after one to two weeks. Avoid contact lenses, eye make-up, strenuous exercise and heavy lifting as advised.
The natural eyelid crease is where the incision goes in upper blepharoplasty, hiding the scar when the eye is open. For the lower lids, the incision sits just below the lash line, or inside the lid with no incision in the skin.
Ahead of the operation the surgeon goes through the risks with you. These are temporary dryness or irritation of the eyes, bruising, asymmetry, infection and scarring; rarely, vision may change or the eyes may not close fully with ease.
Surgery may be unsuitable, or need clearing first, with uncontrolled high blood pressure or diabetes, clotting disorders, severe dry-eye disease, active infection, unstable thyroid eye disease, serious heart or lung disease, pregnancy, or under 18.
Over several months the final contour settles. Natural ageing continues, even though the result is long-lasting. Eyebrows and cheeks are not lifted by the operation, and it does not remove pigmentation dark circles or erase 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 Lodz residents
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure on the eyelids. The surgeon takes away excess skin and, where needed, repositions or removes small amounts of fat. For lower lids, the cut is made just below the lash line, or inside the lid when the problem is mainly fat. Patients in Lodz can have this explained in detail before deciding.
The process begins with a free online consultation. You send photographs and talk with us from Lodz, 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.
Our coordinators work 24/7 on Telegram and WhatsApp, so a question from Lodz 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.
