About This Procedure

What is Eyelid Surgery?

Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that reshapes the eyelids by removing or repositioning excess skin, fat, and muscle. It can address the upper lids (heaviness, drooping), lower lids (puffiness, under-eye bags), or both.

It is one of the most commonly performed facial procedures in Shanghai — a fact that translates directly into surgeon experience, refined technique, and consistently natural results that complement Asian facial features.

What to Expect

The Procedure Process

Your surgeon will assess whether upper, lower, or both eyelids require treatment. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia, depending on the extent of correction.

Cold compresses and rest are advised in the first 48 hours. Swelling and bruising typically resolve within 7–14 days. Most clients feel comfortable returning to social settings within 2 weeks. Full results are visible at 3–6 months.

Common Questions

Eyelid Surgery FAQ

What does eyelid surgery correct?
Eyelid surgery corrects drooping or heavy upper lids, under-eye bags, puffiness, and excess skin that makes the eyes appear tired or aged. It can be performed on the upper lids, lower lids, or both.
Does eyelid surgery hurt?
The procedure is performed under anaesthesia. Post-operative swelling and mild tightness is normal and well managed with medication. Most clients find recovery comfortable.
How long do eyelid surgery results last?
Upper eyelid surgery results typically last 7–10 years. Lower eyelid results are often permanent, as the fat repositioned or removed does not typically return.
When can I wear contact lenses after surgery?
Glasses can be worn during recovery. Contact lenses should be avoided for 2–3 weeks post-surgery to allow proper healing.
Why do eyelid surgery in Shanghai?
Shanghai surgeons perform blepharoplasty at very high volume, with deep expertise in techniques suited to East and Southeast Asian eye anatomy. This translates into natural, precise results consistently.
