Blepharoplasty Surgery
Rejuvenate Your Eyes and Restore a Youthful Appearance
Blepharoplasty Surgery at Altrincham
Your eyes are one of the first features people notice, but over time, the delicate skin around
them can begin to sag, droop, or develop puffiness.
At Bollin Clinic, we offer Blepharoplasty
Surgery (Eyelid Surgery) to help restore a refreshed, youthful, and more alert appearance.
What Is Blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery or an eye lift, is a cosmetic procedure that removes or repositions excess skin, fat, and sometimes muscle from the upper or lower eyelids.
This treatment can correct droopy upper eyelids, under-eye bags, or sagging skin that may make you look tired and in some cases, it can even improve your vision.
At Bollin Clinic, our expert surgeons use precise techniques to deliver natural-looking results with minimal downtime and discreet scarring.
Who Is Blepharoplasty For
You may be a good candidate for blepharoplasty if you:- Notice drooping or sagging upper eyelids that make you look tired or affect vision
- Have puffiness or bags beneath your eyes
- Want to reduce wrinkles or fine lines around the eyes
- Are in good overall health and have realistic expectations
- Want a refreshed, youthful look without altering your natural appearance
If you’re unsure whether blepharoplasty is right for you, our medical experts will assess your needs and recommend a personalised treatment plan.
The Procedure for Blepharoplasty Surgery
Blepharoplasty is usually performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia,
depending on the complexity.
During the procedure:
- Small incisions are made along natural eyelid creases to minimise visible scarring.
- Excess skin, fat, and sometimes muscle is removed or repositioned.
- The incisions are then carefully closed with fine sutures.
Most procedures take between 1–3 hours and are completed as outpatient surgeries, allowing you to return home the same day.
Recovery and Results
After surgery, mild swelling and bruising are normal and typically subside within 7–10 days. Most patients return to work and normal activities within 1–2 weeks.
As healing progresses, your results become more noticeable revealing smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking eyes.
Results are long-lasting and can make a dramatic difference in your overall facial appearance.
