With age, the skin on the eyelids loses tone and elasticity and gradually begins to sag. Bags may appear under the eyes, causing the face to look tired or sad. Eyelid surgery – also referred to as blepharoplasty – may be the answer to rectifying this cosmetic inconvenience. It instantly leaves the eyes looking revitalised and, as a result, the entire face appears younger and more attractive.

Testimonials
Eyelid surgery entails the removal of excess skin and fatty tissue from around the eyes. The upper and lower eyelids can be operated on together during the same treatment session or separately on different occasions.
This surgery is an effective solution for patients suffering from droopy eyelids or puffiness around the eye area. It can also be used to restore a more radiant, youthful appearance to tired- or sad-looking eyes. It’s a popular procedure sought out by both men and women, and is remarkably safe when performed by a suitably qualified professional like any one of the medical specialists at Clinic Lémanic.
Eyelid surgery is performed on an outpatient basis. Local anaesthesia is generally used for blepharoplasty of the upper eyelids, while comfort sedation is recommended for blepharoplasty of the lower eyelids. The procedure instantly makes the eyes look more open and alert, resulting in a more youthful appearance. In addition, there is in most cases no visible scarring. All in all, blepharoplasty is a very light surgery that will barely disrupt your schedule and will leave your face looking beautifully enhanced for many years to come.
First and foremost, eyelid surgery is incredibly effective – just one session is required to achieve the desired results. Once any potential post-operative swelling or bruising has subsided, you will be able to see a spectacular improvement: your eyes will look radiantly rejuvenated and, in turn, your face will look years younger. The results of the procedure last between 8 and 15 years.

Consultation
At Clinic Lémanic, we like to meet you prior to the day of your surgery to ensure that we provide you with the best possible care by tailoring treatment to your specific needs. As such, the eyelid rejuvenation process begins with a preliminary consultation with the medical director. During this consultation, the medical director will conduct a brief examination to establish whether a blepharoplasty is indicated for your particular facial features, following which she will advise you on the results that you can expect from this procedure.
After the preliminary consultation, you will meet with the cosmetic medical specialist, who will explain the procedure in detail to you. He will also carefully take you through the potential risks or complications of the procedure, the recovery period and the results that you are likely to obtain depending on the shape of your face.
Before the treatment
The preparations necessary for the procedure would have been explained to you during your previous consultations. These preparations (recommended only if without medical risk) include temporarily suspending any course of vitamins or omega-3 supplements that you may be taking at least 3 weeks before the procedure. If applicable, you will also need to check with your treating physician to what extent any course of prescribed anticoagulants can be interrupted.
Procedure
On the day of your scheduled surgery, be sure to arrive to your appointment with no make-up on and with your contact lenses removed. You may also want to wear comfortable clothing to feel more relaxed and at ease. If only the upper or lower eyelids are being operated on, you should allow approximately 2.5 hours for this visit. If both sets of eyelids are being operated on, you should expect to spend around half a day at the clinic.
Post treatment
To help facilitate your recovery, the cosmetic medical specialist will give you specific instructions that you will need to follow for at least 4 days after your surgery, in particular:
A follow-up visit will be scheduled 5 days after the surgery. During this visit, the surgical sutures will be removed, and our medical team will administer specialised post-operative care to promote wound healing and help accelerate the recovery process.

The skin in the eye area will immediately appear smoother and firmer, but it will take a minimum of 3 months for the full benefits of the procedure to become apparent; only then will you be able to truly appreciate your newly enhanced features. Your eyes will look brighter and more alert, helping turn back the clock on your appearance by at least 10 years. The results of the procedure usually last between 8 and 15 years, but a healthy lifestyle will likely contribute to their longevity.
Cosmetic eyelid surgery is recommended for anyone who suffers from puffy, sagging or tired-looking eyes – whether due to excess skin on the upper eyelids or to dark, hollowed under-eye circles (called lipoptosis) – and can therefore be used to correct both the upper and lower eyelids. It is also recommended if your eye shape no longer suits or pleases you. Lastly, if you’re seeking treatment because your eyelids are naturally droopy as a result of a genetic predisposition, you will undoubtedly be satisfied with the results offered by this procedure.
Blepharoplasty is suitable for both men and women. Contrary to what you may believe, eyelid surgery in men requires the same degree of finesse as that in women. The fundamental difference lies in the horizontality and thickness of the eyebrows in men, a feature that requires advanced skills on the part of the surgeon.
If, for whatever reason, the traditional surgical eyelid correction is not right for you, there is another option that you may want to consider. Due to the progress made in the field of aesthetic medicine in the past few years, a new non-invasive eyelid rejuvenation treatment is now available. This treatment, known as the plasma lift, is performed using a small, specially designed instrument with a thin metal probe and fine foam tip. The instrument delivers a small electrical arc (called a plasma arc) which tightens the eyelid skin and rejuvenates the eye area – all without the need to resort to surgery. The plasma lift is particularly effective when the treatment is sought out early.
