Book an appointment Service Description Blepharoplasty is a procedure in which a plastic surgeon removes excess skin and fat from the eyelid area and tightens the eyelid skin for a refreshed, youthful look. Types of Blepharoplasty in Lviv Upper blepharoplasty – removes drooping skin and bulging fat deposits on the upper eyelids. Lower blepharoplasty – removes under-eye bags and excess skin on the lower eyelids. Circular blepharoplasty – comprehensive surgery for both upper and lower eyelids. Transconjunctival blepharoplasty – removes fat deposits without external incisions, ideal for younger patients. Laser blepharoplasty – eyelid surgery using a laser for minimal tissue trauma. Procedure Features Before the operation, patients have a consultation with a plastic surgeon to assess skin condition, fat deposits, and determine the necessity of surgery. During the surgery, precise incisions are made along natural eyelid folds, excess skin and fat are removed, fat hernias corrected, and muscles tightened to achieve a defined eyelid contour. The effect develops gradually and becomes noticeable within 1–3 months. Blepharoplasty gives a more open, youthful, and refreshed appearance. Rehabilitation Recovery usually takes 7–14 days. Moderate swelling and bruising are normal and gradually disappear. For one month after surgery, avoid tanning, intense physical activity, and follow all medical recommendations to reduce complications and ensure proper healing.
