Blepharoplasty surgery is performed under general or local anaesthetic depending upon the type of surgery and usually spans between 1 to 2 hours. Typically, there are three main types of Blepharoplasty surgeries.

Upper eyelid blepharoplasty: This type of blepharoplasty focuses on the upper eyelid and intends to enhance sight loss or improve the eye’s appearance owing to aging or genetics. As the name suggests, this procedure is focused on the upper eyelid. This surgery enables to restore eye function or create a more rounded and open look in your eyes.

Lower eyelid blepharoplasty: This procedure centers around the lower eyelid and focuses on skin wrinkle reduction, baggy-eye correction and overall improvement of the facial appearance.

Double eyelid blepharoplasty: In a double eyelid surgery, a crease is carved in the upper eyelid to make the eye look wider and larger. This is the procedure that has become so popular in East Asia, and it is frequently mentioned in connection with blepharoplasty as a whole.
