Upper Blepharoplasty
and more beautiful eyes
A surgery that makes the eyes more defined by removing the loose skin and muscle covering the double eyelid line, or by creating a fold in the skin at the desired height
Non-Incisional Upper Blepharoplasty
Upper blepharoplasty is recommended when drooping eyelids obstruct your vision or when cosmetic improvement is needed. It mainly removes the excess skin and fat from upper eyelids that have drooped with aging, creating younger, more defined eyes. The surgery not only improves your field of vision but also gives the eyes a neater, more defined look.
However, excessive upper blepharoplasty can make your expression look unnatural or overly sharp, so it is important to develop an appropriate surgical plan through a thorough consultation with an experienced specialist

Upper Blepharoplasty Q&A
-
Will upper blepharoplasty change the way I look?Upper blepharoplasty removes drooping eyelid tissue to open up your field of vision and create defined eyes, but your overall look can change depending on the design. If too much is removed, the eyes may look excessively large or the double eyelid unnatural. With a natural design, on the other hand, you can achieve a youthful, lively look. It is important to have a thorough consultation with the medical team with the look you want in mind.
-
Is it possible that my eyes won't close completely after upper blepharoplasty?This problem does not usually occur, but if too much skin is removed, you may feel tightness when closing your eyes or they may not close completely. To prevent this, it is important to adjust the amount removed to suit each person's skin elasticity and degree of drooping. You may feel slight tightness in the early period after surgery, but in most cases this resolves naturally as the tissue settles over time.
-
How long can the results of upper blepharoplasty last?Results can generally last 10 years or more, though this may vary with each person's skin elasticity and pace of aging. The skin may droop again as aging progresses, but once you have had the surgery, you can keep defined eyes for far longer than before. To maintain skin elasticity, sun protection, moisturizing, and healthier lifestyle habits are important after surgery.
