Say goodbye to bags under your eyes, fine lines, wrinkles and a tired look with blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery.
Eyelid Surgery in Dubai
Your eyes are the window to your soul, they say. But sometimes, our eyes tend to age a tad bit faster than we want them to. Reclaim the spark in your eyes and regain your confidence with an Eyelid Uplift Treatment that gives you a rejuvenated appearance around your eyes.
Aging causes fine lines, wrinkles, stretch marks, saggy bags under your eyes, fat deposits and pigmentation under and around your eyes, giving you a tired, old look.
Blepharoplasty or Eye Lid Lift Surgery involves the surgical treatment of the skin, fat and muscles around your upper or lower eyelids and also remove eye bag to give you a more radiant and youthful appearance.
A Blepharoplasty may be combined with other cosmetic procedures like a brow lift, facelift, or mid-facelift.


How Does the Procedure of Blepharoplasty in Dubai Work?
A Blepharoplasty is a painless procedure as your surgeon will administer an adequate amount of local or general anesthesia, as the case may need. Both the upper and lower eyelid surgery can be performed individually or on the same day.
The surgeon will begin by marking lines along the eyelids’ natural creases to make the scars inconspicuous.
An incision is made on the marked lines, and the excess fat and loose skin are removed. The incisions are closed with sutures to tighten the skin around the eyelid.
Who Needs An Eyelid surgery/Uplift?
Eyelid Surgery or Blepharoplasty is recommended in healthy men and women who have one or more of the following complaints:
- Excess deposits of fat that give your upper eyelids a puffy appearance
- Loose, saggy skin that is changing the natural contour of your eyelid, sometimes disrupting vision
- Excessive fine lines and wrinkles around the lower eyelid
- Bags under the eyes that tend to sag
- Droopy upper or lower eyelids with increased visibility of the whites of the eyes
A facelift procedure is not recommended for signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation and sun damage.
These conditions are usually treated with laser therapy or other cosmetic procedures, sometimes in combination facelift.


How Can You Prepare For Your Appointment?
In most cases, eyelid surgery is performed as an outpatient procedure. Depending on the case’s complexity, some patients may require an overnight hospital stay.
Here are some preparatory measures that you require before your appointment:
- Stop any medications or supplements that can increase your risk of bleeding, bruising, or affect healing. Always consult with your surgeon and physician before stopping any prescription or non-prescription medicines..
- You must quit smoking at least two months before your eyelid uplift procedure as smoking interferes with blood flow, delays healing and increases the risk of complications.
- You should be healthy and maintain a stable weight before your surgery for optimum results.
What Should I Expect After an Eyelid Surgery?
The results of a blepharoplasty vary for everyone. Here’s what you can expect after your procedure:
- You will have mild pain or discomfort after the procedure, but with medications prescribed by your surgeon, your pain will be minimal and manageable.
- You may observe some bruising and blackish pigmentation around your eyes that will resolve in the few days following your treatment.
- You will need to visit your surgeon for a follow-up a day or two after your surgery and a week later for suture removal. During these visits, your surgeon will be able to monitor your healing and recovery.
- You must avoid applying any makeup around your eyes or wear your contact lenses for at least two weeks after the procedure.
