Eyelift (Blepharoplasty) in Glasgow
As we age the skin tends to become more lax and this can lead to excess upper eyelid skin (hooding). An Upper Eye Lift sometimes referred to as a Blepharoplasty is a simple procedure used to reduce the amount of excess skin on the upper eyelid. This leaves the patient with a more youthful appearance that makes them feel fresher and with a brighter eyed look.
There is a potential solution of this.

FAQ’s
How much does it cost?

Are you left with any scarring?
Blepharoplasty- Most of the time there is no visible scar after the healing is complete. Incisions in the eyelids are made following natural skin folds and creases. Once healed, the hairline scars will fade, leaving a very inconspicuous incision line that become virtually unnoticeable after the healing.
Will I be in pain?
Blepharoplasty- After any surgical procedure, some discomfort can be expected. Patients have surprisingly little discomfort after most eyelid procedures and we have had no reports of anything unmanageable.
How long does the treatment take?
Blepharoplasty takes around 60-90 minutes to complete.
Can I drive after treatment?
Blepharoplasty- No, you should make arrangements for someone to drive you home following the procedure.
Should I take time off work?
Blepharoplasty- We would advise to take a few days off work to allow any bruising and swelling to settle.
