Eyelid Surgery (Upper & Lower)

Brighter eyes

A subtle change with a significant impact

Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) addresses one of the most telling signs of aging — tired, heavy, or puffy eyes. Whether correcting upper lids that hood the eyes or lower lids with persistent puffiness, the results are a more rested, refreshed appearance that looks entirely natural. At Surgical Suites of Beverly Hills, every procedure is performed in a private OR by a team trained for delicate facial surgery.

Brighter eyes. A refreshed appearance. Board-certified precision.

What is eyelid surgery?

Blepharoplasty removes or repositions excess skin, muscle, and fat from the upper and/or lower eyelids. Upper blepharoplasty lifts hooded lids; lower blepharoplasty reduces under-eye puffiness and dark hollows. Procedures are typically performed under sedation or general anesthesia and take 1–2 hours. Most patients return home the same day.

FAQs

Common questions about this service and what to expect.

Will I need a follow-up appointment at the facility?

Post-operative follow-up is coordinated through your surgeon's office. Our team remains available to support you through your recovery.

Will the results look natural?

Yes — the goal of eyelid surgery is a natural, rested appearance, not an operated look. Results are designed to enhance your features, not alter them dramatically.

What type of anesthesia is used?

Eyelid surgery at our facility is typically performed under general anesthesia or IV sedation, with a board-certified anesthesiologist present throughout.

Can eyelid surgery be combined with other facial procedures?

Yes. Blepharoplasty is commonly performed alongside brow lift, facelift, or facial fat grafting for more comprehensive rejuvenation. Your surgeon will advise what makes sense for your goals.

Will there be visible scarring?

Upper eyelid incisions are placed within the natural lid crease and are typically invisible once healed. Lower lid incisions are placed just below the lash line or inside the lid (transconjunctival approach). Most scars fade to near invisibility within several months.

How long do eyelid surgery results last?

Upper eyelid results typically last 5–7 years or more; lower lid results tend to be longer-lasting. While aging continues, most patients find the improvement is meaningful and durable.

Will both upper and lower eyelids be done at the same time?

Yes, if indicated. Upper and lower blepharoplasty can be performed together in a single session, which is common and adds minimal recovery time. Your surgeon will recommend the appropriate approach based on your anatomy and goals.

How long does recovery from eyelid surgery take?

Most patients resume light activity within 7–10 days and return to work within 1–2 weeks. Swelling and bruising typically resolve within 2 weeks, though subtle residual swelling may take a few months to fully subside.
