Inge Van Litringen. London

Absolutely delighted with the results of my upper blepharoplasty, and actually, the whole process. The procedure went exactly as Jonathan and Rachna explained it would; they’re so proficient at what they do, and so reassuring.

It’s probably the single thing that I could do that’s made the biggest impact on my appearance and therefore on my confidence, just to not feel that I’m looking tired all the time. I can actually see the shape of my eyes, see my eyelids, which I wasn’t able to before - that’s really wonderful. Absolutely, it’s worth it if that’s an area that you’re worried about

What is Lower Blepharoplasty?

As the face naturally ages, the skin quality reduces, and our soft tissues begin to reabsorb, giving a drooping, deflationary effect under the lower eye.

Also referred to as under-eye bag removal, lower blepharoplasty is lower eyelid surgery that is designed to smooth puffiness and address tear-trough hollowing, whilst also helping to minimise under-eye dark circles.

By restoring the contour from the lower eyelid to your cheek, a lower eyelid lift refreshes and tightens the entire under-eye area, acting as an effective lower eyelid wrinkle treatment, reducing the appearance of tired eyes, so you look and feel at your best.

Lower eyelid rejuvenation gives your whole face a natural lightness, reflecting true energy levels:

  • Removes or repositions under-eye bags & excess fat
  • Provides an effective puffiness under-eye treatment to reduce swelling
  • Softens wrinkles & fine lines beneath the eyes, smoothing under-eye contours
  • Tightens and lifts, minimising dark circles & tear-trough hollowing.

Get Clear, Expert Advice

When making a significant decision about any under-eye surgery, you’ll want to understand all of your options, gather information and explore the treatment possibilities that might be right for you, as an individual.

Before you book your lower eyelid lift treatment consultation, discuss your goals and choices with our specialist patient care team, completely free of charge.

How We Can Help You

Your Dual-Clinician Consultation

After chatting through your eye health and aesthetic goals, we both undertake a full eye assessment, taking account of surrounding structures, muscle tone, and skin quality. Carefully evaluating your lower eyelids, fat distribution, under-eye hollowing, along with the position and function of your lower lid, we assess your tear film production, the transition from eye-to-cheek and your overall facial balance.

High-resolution imaging and meticulous ocular measurements help us confirm the best surgical approach for your lower eyelid rejuvenation, addressing any periorbital hollowing, removing under-eye fat and performing any lower eye skin tightening so we not only meet, but exceed your desired outcome.

Your Specialist Treatment Plan

For the majority of our lower blepharoplasty patients, the transconjunctival approach ensures we achieve safe, long-lasting, natural results – with no external, visible scarring.

This approach uses a small incision, made just inside the lower eyelid, allowing us to remove under-eye fat, perform precise under-eye bag removal and lower eyelid skin tightening with exceptional discretion. Your lower eyelid surgery is performed under local anaesthetic, but don’t worry, you won’t see or feel a thing.

When you’re asleep, your muscles and tissues change position. Our unique local anaesthetic lower blepharoplasty ensures that we can fully assess your eye position and muscle function throughout, so we achieve your precise, natural-looking result.

Combined with our dual-surgeon approach, this technique reduces your lower eyelid lift procedure time, limits downtime and improves recovery. Taking just 1 – 1.5 hours, you’ll be home the same day.

Your Natural Results

Lower eyelid surgery is a refined, often multi-layered procedure that addresses under-eye bag removal, lower lid skin tightening, and fat repositioning to soften hollowed areas.

The majority of our lower blepharoplasty patients are pleasantly surprised by how straightforward recovery is. Swelling, bruising and inflammation settle quickly with our clinically proven Purifeyes™ spray and Microbial Mantle™ skincare protocol; most patients return to their normal activities within 7 to 10 days.

If external incisions are required, they are discreetly placed beneath the lash line, leaving scars that are typically unnoticeable once healed. Your eyes appear brighter, less fatigued and naturally refreshed, helping you enjoy a renewed sense of vitality.

Common Patient Questions & Helpful Answers

What is lower blepharoplasty?

Improving the appearance of tired eyes, lower blepharoplasty repositions or removes under-eye fat while supporting lower eyelid skin tightening to reduce excess skin where appropriate.

This refined lower eyelid surgery approach can soften under-eye bags, puffiness and dark circles, restoring smoother, balanced, natural facial contours without changing your unique facial character; you know, the one that makes you ‘you’.

How much does under-eye bag removal surgery cost?

The cost of under-eye surgery (lower blepharoplasty) depends on your personalised treatment plan, surgical approach, anaesthesia and aftercare. Our inclusive pricing for lower eyelid surgery starts from £8,500, with combined eye bag removal and upper eyelid lift procedures available.

We offer a free initial pre-consultation call; our expert Patient Care team can chat about pricing and our finance options.

Are there any additional fees for lower blepharoplasty surgery?

No. Our under-eye bag removal pricing is fully inclusive, covering your local anaesthetic, clinic facilities and comprehensive aftercare, with no hidden, supplementary costs added to your invoice.

We believe transparent pricing and flexible finance options mean that more lower blepharoplasty patients access the care they need, and help everyone make informed decisions about their health and happiness with complete confidence.

Does lower blepharoplasty leave a scar?

During lower blepharoplasty, incisions for a lower eyelid lift are discreetly placed beneath the lash line, where they typically heal extremely well, settling in 2-3 weeks.

We further support healing with our Scarless™ protocol, developed from our published scar management research, using yellow and blue light to reduce inflammation and increase collagen, ensuring that any scarring is almost invisible.

How long does lower blepharoplasty last?

The results of a lower eyelid lift are long-lasting, typically around 10–15 years, with some patients enjoying their refreshed appearance for even longer. Our Microbial MantleTM skincare can help extend results further.

While ageing continues naturally, lower blepharoplasty restores a brighter, more youthful appearance, with many patients reporting they look and feel years younger following their lower eyelid rejuvenation.

How long will it take to recover from lower eyelid surgery?

Recovery following lower blepharoplasty is often faster than expected. Most patients feel comfortable returning to normal activities within 7–10 days after under-eye surgery.

Mild swelling, bruising or tightness following eye bag removal and lower eyelid skin tightening is manageable without heavy pain relief. Make-up can usually be worn again after 5–10 days, as your lower eyelid rejuvenation settles.

Can lower blepharoplasty improve the appearance of dark circles?

Structural changes around the eyes can play a major role in the formation of under-eye dark circles. Periorbital hollowing caused by under-eye volume loss creates the appearance of shadows under the eyes.

By tightening the lower eyelid and orbital septum to remove fat, where needed, we improve tear-trough hollowness; lower blepharoplasty helps minimise dark circles under the eyes, long-term.

What are the risks and complications of lower blepharoplasty?

With our combined decades of experience, complications following lower blepharoplasty are very rare. Our meticulous consultation and dual-consultant approach help ensure safe, personalised treatment planning.

Following under-eye bag removal, temporary swelling, bruising, light sensitivity or tightness may occur, but these are manageable with our Purifeyes™ spray and Microbial Mantle™ aftercare protocol, supporting optimal healing following your lower eyelid lift procedure.

Does lower blepharoplasty require a general anaesthetic?

Your lower blepharoplasty is usually performed under local anaesthesia, reducing downtime and supporting faster recovery.

With closed eyes, remaining awake allows dual-surgeons to assess eye movement, contours and eyelid opening/closure throughout treatment, helping achieve precise, natural results. Our state-of-the-art technology delivers distraction techniques that ensure your comfort and relaxation during your lower eyelid surgery, or combined upper eyelid lift.
