Lower eyelid blepharoplasty
Blepharoplasty is one of the most commonly performed procedures at Face Restoration. Lower eyelid blepharoplasty is a procedure used to reduce the appearance of eye bags (or eyelid bags), loose folds of extra skin, or dark circles under the lower lids (tear trough defects). The face acquires age-related traits not just due to drooping but also as a result of soft tissue deflation.
At Face Restoration, we understand that the eye area is often the first that our patients notice when it comes to the signs of ageing. Our leading oculoplastic surgeons will take you through all of your treatment options and create a bespoke treatment plan that aims to achieve your aesthetic goals with natural-looking results.

How long does it take to recover from upper eyelid surgery?
The majority of patients who undergo upper lid surgery are able to return to work in 10-14 days.
Will I have visible scarring?
We understand that one of the most common concerns with facial surgery is scarring. Any incisions are made to be hidden in the lower eyelash line for coverage. We also use Scars-less™️ technology to reduce healing time and decrease the amount of visible scarring.
