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.

At the consultation the surgeon explains every step and puts together a plan for your case.

Free, before surgery and with no obligation.

Pre-operative preparation and tests

Before surgery, the surgeon reviews your history and medicines, and you undergo an eye assessment, photographs and standard tests. Only the surgeon's instructions determine when blood-thinning medicines and supplements are stopped; smoking should end 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

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.

Recovery and follow-up

Several months are needed for the final contour to settle, while swelling settles over the first couple of weeks. The surgeon schedules follow-up checks, and stitches, if not dissolving, are usually removed within the first week.

At the consultation the surgeon will explain how the operation goes in your case.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about eyelid surgery

Upper, lower or combined: choosing your operation in Nuremberg

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 Nuremberg 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.

Your first consultation is online and free of charge. If you are in Nuremberg, you send photos, answer questions about your health and discuss what you would like to change. The surgeon then proposes a plan, including whether upper lids, lower lids or both are involved, and explains the anaesthesia options and the likely course of recovery.

Booking comes last, not first. Begin by messaging a coordinator on Telegram or WhatsApp from Nuremberg, then have the free online consultation. The surgeon examines your photographs, confirms the plan and tells you the price. Only after that do you decide whether to go ahead, and coordinators remain available 24/7.
