Eyelid Reduction (blepharoplasty)
ALL ABOUT
eyelid reduction
(blepharoplasty)
The skin around the eyelids can begin to become loose and sag as part of the normal ageing process for most people. An excess of fat in the lower and upper eyelids can also contribute to this and at times can obscure one’s vision. Eyelid reductions, or blepharoplasty, can correct this, assisting with making the eyes look younger and larger.

The surgery
An eyelid reduction can involve alterations to the upper eyelid, lower eyelid or both. Loose folds of excess skin are removed from the upper eyelid to help retain the natural shape of the eye. This is normally performed under general anesthetic. Excess skin around the lower eye may be removed to help alleviate “bags” under the eye, while fatty tissue is also removed or repositioned.
The incisions made during the procedure above the upper and lower eyelids are made in the skin’s natural folds, helping to reduce the visibility of scars.
Our surgeons are available from the following hospitals for this procedure:
- Kingsway Day Surgery (Miranda, NSW)
- East Sydney Private Hospital (Woolloomooloo, NSW)
- Macquarie University Hospital (Macquarie University, NSW)
- Kareena Private Hospital (Caringbah, NSW)
What are the risks ?
All procedures involve an element of risk. The general risks involve temporary swelling and a tight feeling around the eyes, bruising, itchiness, general pain and discomfort at the incision site. Very rarely, some people may experience loss of vision.
If you are concerned about possible complications associated with your procedure, ensure you discuss them with your surgeon.
