Treatment Overview

About Eyelid Surgery

Blepharoplasty addresses excess skin, herniated fat pads, and muscle laxity in the upper and/or lower eyelids — the earliest visible signs of facial ageing. Upper blepharoplasty removes overhanging skin that makes eyes appear smaller and more fatigued. Lower blepharoplasty addresses under-eye bags, hollowing, and skin crepiness. At Inform Clinic in Hyderabad, Dr. Dushyanth Kalva performs conservative eyelid surgery with precise pre-operative marking — removing only what is needed, preserving the natural lid crease, and producing a result that looks rested rather than surgically altered.

Who Is This For?

Benefits & Candidacy

Key Benefits

Eyes appear more open, alert, and youthful without looking dramatically changed
Removal of vision-obstructing upper eyelid skin — a functional benefit alongside aesthetic
Improved under-eye appearance — less hollowing, puffiness, and skin crepiness
Long-lasting result — upper blepharoplasty results typically last 8–12+ years

Likely Suitable If

Adults with excess upper eyelid skin causing a hooded or tired appearance
Those with lower under-eye bags caused by herniated fat (not skin alone)
Stable general health with no uncontrolled thyroid disease, dry eye syndrome, or glaucoma
Non-smokers or those able to stop nicotine at least 4 weeks before surgery

Needs Extra Evaluation

Active thyroid eye disease — must be fully stable before elective eyelid surgery
Severe dry eye syndrome — blepharoplasty can worsen dry eye symptoms if not managed
Unrealistic expectation of eliminating all shadowing — dark circles caused by pigmentation are not corrected surgically
Patients whose heavy upper lid is primarily from brow descent — a brow lift may be more appropriate

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes — when done conservatively and with precise pre-operative planning, blepharoplasty produces a naturally refreshed appearance. The goal is eyes that look more awake and less heavy, not eyes that look surgically different.

Upper blepharoplasty addresses excess skin and fat in the upper lid — the most common reason for a heavy or tired look. Lower blepharoplasty addresses under-eye bags, hollowing, and skin laxity below the eye. Both can be combined in a single procedure.

It depends on the cause. Dark circles caused by under-eye fat bags or hollowing (tear trough) can be significantly improved with lower blepharoplasty and fat repositioning. But dark circles from skin pigmentation alone are not corrected by surgery and require skin treatments.

Upper blepharoplasty may qualify for partial coverage when visual field testing confirms that the excess eyelid skin is obstructing vision. A functional assessment can be arranged before consultation.

Yes — eyelid surgery is very commonly performed under local anaesthesia with or without oral sedation, making it a day-care procedure with no overnight stay needed. General anaesthesia is available for patients who prefer complete unconsciousness or when combined with other surgeries.

The cost varies based on whether it is upper only, lower only, or four-lid blepharoplasty, and whether fat repositioning or combination procedures are involved. Inform Clinic provides a transparent quote after clinical assessment.

Procedure duration varies by complexity and whether combined corrections are planned. A personalized estimate is shared during consultation.

Return to routine depends on treatment extent and your recovery pattern. Most patients resume desk work earlier than physically demanding work.

Incision placement is planned carefully to keep scars as discreet as possible. Scar maturation continues for several months.
