Cosmetic problems with the upper eyelids
The ageing process can cause the skin on the upper eyelids to become lax and slack, creating a hooded appearance.
From a cosmetic point of view, this effect can make the eyes look smaller and give you a tired expression.
Sagging upper eyelids may also cause functional problems.
Excess skin may droop over the eyelashes, affecting your vision. The folds of loose skin that develop on the upper eyelids are ideal places for infections and itchy rashes to develop.
Upper eyelid lift surgery in Worcester
Firstly, your surgeon will make an incision in the natural crease of your upper lid.
Excess skin is drawn up and trimmed. The lax muscles around the eye socket are tightened, and fatty deposits are removed.
Eye bags and slack lower eyelids
Loss of elasticity also causes eye bags to form on the lower eyelid.
This pouching effect is worsened by poor muscle tone, and dark shadows are common.
Plastic surgery for the lower eyelids at our Worcester clinic
Eyebag removal requires a fine incision along the lower eyelash line or the lash line’s inner side.
Your plastic surgeon will use the incision to remove fatty deposits, trim the skin and tighten the muscles.
Anaesthesia for eyelid surgery in Worcester
Our surgical team will decide whether to use a general or local anaesthetic when assessing your case at your initial consultation.
Their decision will depend on how long they expect the operation to take and which techniques are required for the best outcomes.
How will my eyes look after eyelid lift surgery?
The skin in the eye area is extremely delicate, so post-operative bruising may take a while to subside.
However, when your skin has fully recovered, you will be delighted with your plastic surgery results.
Our team’s surgical skills will ensure that the effect is subtle, but your dark circles will be gone, and you will look refreshed, wide-eyed, and more awake.

Will eyelid surgery remove my crow’s feet?
Although your skin will be much smoother after this procedure, it is essential to realise that eyelid surgery does not solve other cosmetic issues around the eyes, like crow’s feet.
Reshape and Restore offers other cosmetic procedures for crow’s feet and wrinkles around the eyes.
Recovery after eyelid surgery
If your eyelid surgery involves a general anaesthetic, you will stay in the hospital overnight.
Otherwise, you can leave once your surgeon has checked your incision and advised you on caring for your eyes.
Your eyes will be bruised and swollen for a few days, but simple pain relief should be enough to ease any discomfort.
We advise patients to apply a cold compress to the area to reduce swelling and to sleep propped up on pillows to encourage fluid to drain away from the face.
Can I wear contact lenses after eyelid surgery?
We advise patients to wear spectacles instead of contact lenses for at least a week as lenses may irritate the eyes.
Your eyes may be extra sensitive to light after your operation, so sunglasses are a good idea.
When can I return to work after plastic surgery on my eyelids?
Most patients return to work after a couple of weeks, but this depends on the nature of your work.
Strenuous activity could affect healing, so we advise patients to wait a few weeks before returning to vigorous gym workouts.
How much does eyelid surgery cost in Bristol?
The cost of blepharoplasty surgery in Bristol starts at £3 200 but will vary according to the surgical techniques used and whether an overnight stay in the hospital is required.

About Worcester
Worcester is famous for its medieval cathedral, where the notorious English King John is buried. This ancient city is full of history and played an important role in the English Civil War.
However, Worcester’s main claim to fame is Worcestershire sauce. This fermented sauce was invented in the city in the nineteenth century. It now provides an umami twist to food and drink worldwide.
