Upper vs. Lower Blepharoplasty: What’s the Difference?

Here’s a look at your eyelid surgery options:

  • Upper Blepharoplasty: As the skin loses its elasticity over time, the upper lids can fold downward, creating hooded, droopy eyelids and a tired look that no amount of concealer can hide. Dr. Jejurikar will remove excess skin, muscle, and fat from your upper eyelids and tighten loose and sagging skin. The goal is to create a more defined eyelid crease and deliver a brighter, more balanced appearance.
  • Lower Blepharoplasty: Lower blepharoplasty focuses on addressing under-eye bags, lines, and puffiness. Dr. Jejurikar will carefully reposition or remove fat deposits under the eye to smooth the transition between the lid and cheek, delivering a more refreshed, rested appearance, with beautifully natural results.

At times, Dr. Jejurikar may recommend both an upper and lower blepharoplasty surgery for a more comprehensive eyelid rejuvenation. Our acclaimed plastic surgeon will evaluate your unique needs and recommend the ideal solution to deliver a more defined, balanced eyelid appearance.

How Can an Eyelid Lift Improve Your Vision?

When excess upper eyelid skin droops far enough, it can obstruct your peripheral vision. Tasks like reading, driving, or even watching TV can become challenging. Upper blepharoplasty removes excess tissue, lifting your upper eyelids and reducing visual obstruction, enhancing your overall quality of life.

What Can You Expect?

Dr. Jejurikar will evaluate your concerns, review your health history, and develop a custom treatment plan. He will discuss whether you need upper eyelid surgery, lower eyelid surgery, or both, and may recommend combining your blepharoplasty with complementary treatments, such as a brow lift or non-surgical rejuvenation, to enhance your final results. Eyelid surgery is performed on an outpatient basis and typically takes one to two hours to complete, depending on the complexity of your procedure.

After your eyelid lift, you may experience some swelling, bruising, and irritation, which should resolve without intervention in the following days. Any scarring from the incisions should slowly fade over the following year. Initial improvements are typically visible once swelling subsides, with final results continuing to refine over several months. The result? A smoother, more youthful, and more refreshed eyelid appearance.

What Is Eyelid Surgery?

Eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, is a procedure designed for droopy eyelid correction, tightening loose and sagging skin, and opening up your eyes for a more rested, youthful appearance. 

There are several types of eyelid surgery, each tailored to address your unique needs. 

  • Upper Eyelid Surgery: Dr. Jejurikar will remove excess skin, muscle, and fat from the upper eyelids, creating a more defined eyelid crease, delivering a brighter, more alert look, and improving your peripheral vision. 
  • Lower Eyelid Surgery: This technique eliminates under-eye bags, lines, and puffiness, restoring your refreshed appearance and your youthful contours. 
  • Double Eyelid Surgery: Combining upper and lower eyelid surgery provides a more comprehensive eyelid rejuvenation solution, resulting in a more defined, balanced, and harmonious eye appearance. 
  • Revision Eyelid Surgery: Revision blepharoplasty helps correct or improve the results of previous eyelid surgery, restoring the function and aesthetics of your eyelids. 

What Is the Eyelid Surgery Process?

During your initial consultation, Dr. Jejurikar will evaluate your concerns and determine the ideal eye lift procedure to restore your rested, youthful appearance. Blepharoplasty may be performed as a standalone procedure or combined with other treatments, such as brow lifts or non-surgical eyelid rejuvenation, to enhance your final results.

Eyelid surgery is an outpatient procedure that typically takes 1 to 2 hours to complete. You may opt for local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia for your comfort. Dr. Jejurikar will make small incisions hidden within the natural creases of your eyelid to help minimize visible scarring. Our experienced plastic surgeon will remove or reposition fat deposits, tighten your eye muscles, and remove any excess skin to create smoother, more youthful eyelid contours. The final step is closing the incision with fine sutures and placing a sterile dressing to protect the area.

What Can You Expect After Your Eyelid Surgery? 

You may experience some swelling, bruising, or irritation around the eyelids, which typically resolves in a few days. Most patients resume light activity within a week or two. The final treatment results are typically visible in about 2 to 3 months, leaving you with a more refreshed and youthful appearance. Any residual scarring will slowly fade over the following year.

Upper lid blepharoplasty, otherwise known as upper eyelid lift, is one of the most popular facial surgical procedures performed by Dr. Jejurikar. When patients complain that their eyes make them look tired, an upper lid blepharoplasty may be used to create a more refreshed look. An upper eyelid blepharoplasty involves removing skin, as well as oftentimes muscle and fat, from the upper eyelid to eliminate heavy and sagging skin.

An important thing to determine is whether or not the sagging skin of the upper eyelid is truly the result of extra skin of the upper eyelid, or if it is the result of a sagging brow. Sometimes, droopy brows can create a heavy and tired appearance of the upper eyelids. If elevation of the brow helps correct the tired appearance, it is very possible that a brow lift may be necessary, either by itself or in combination with an upper eyelid lift.

Upper eyelid lift alone is a relatively straight forward procedure with minimal pain. It is very common for patients to have significant bruising and swelling for 7-14 days after the procedure. The utilization of over-the-counter supplements to reduce bruising can sometimes reduce this, as can the use of camouflage makeup. The operation can be performed under general anesthesia or under local anesthesia, depending on the extensiveness of the procedure and patient preference.
