BLEPHAROPLASTY – EYELID SURGERY TREATMENT IN MANCHESTER
OBJECTIVES OF BLEPHAROPLASTY SURGERY
Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery or an eyelid lift, is designed to restore both the function and appearance of the upper and lower eyelids. Adjacent areas such as the eyebrows, cheeks, and nasal bridge may also be addressed to achieve more comprehensive results.
Excess or sagging eyelid tissue can affect vision. When the upper eyelid droops significantly, it may block part of your visual field, making everyday activities like reading or driving more difficult. Additionally, surplus skin on the upper lids can lead to skin irritation or persistent forehead discomfort caused by overuse of the brow muscles to lift the eyelids. Functional blepharoplasty enhances your vision and comfort while also delivering the cosmetic improvements seen in aesthetic procedures.
Blepharoplasty – Eyelid Surgery is suitable for:
Changes around the eyes can significantly impact the overall appearance of your face. As we age, eyelids can begin to sag due to muscle weakening, loss of skin elasticity, and the shifting of underlying fat. The goal of blepharoplasty is to eliminate excess skin and reposition fat for a more refreshed look.
Some common reasons people consider eyelid surgery include:
-
A feeling of heaviness or puffiness in the upper eyelids
-
Drooping upper eyelids that may extend to or cover the lash line
-
Noticeable under-eye bags
-
Dry eyes caused by the improper position of the lower eyelids
-
Reduced vision, especially peripheral vision
-
Persistent forehead tension from lifting the brows to see clearly
-
Skin irritation on the eyelids from constant friction
Eyelid surgery is a widely performed procedure that benefits both women and men. However, it’s not suitable for everyone. Ideal candidates are generally healthy, non-smokers, and free from untreated eye conditions. If you’re considering blepharoplasty, it’s essential to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon who can assess your suitability during a thorough evaluation.

Recovery from Blepharoplasty
Recovery from blepharoplasty varies based on the procedure’s complexity and the individual’s overall health. Mild swelling and bruising are common in the first few days and usually diminish within a week. To support the healing process, patients are advised to rest, keep their head elevated, and avoid vigorous physical activity.
Most people can resume work and normal routines within 10 to 14 days. However, full recovery and the final aesthetic outcome may take several weeks. During this time, proper aftercare and follow-up appointments with the surgeon are crucial. Post-operative care typically includes protecting the eyes from direct sunlight and applying any prescribed ointments or eye drops as directed.
