Blepharoplasty in Turkey

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic procedure that helps restore a youthful, alert appearance to the eyes. It is performed to address signs of aging, sun damage, or genetic factors affecting the upper and lower eyelids. The surgery removes excess skin, muscle, and sometimes fat deposits that create hooding on the upper eyelids or puffiness (bags) under the eyes.

At Yüzyıl Hospital, eyelid surgery is customized for each individual. Upper blepharoplasty focuses on restoring the natural crease of the eye, while lower blepharoplasty addresses under-eye bags and hollows. These procedures can be performed together or combined with a facelift or brow lift for a complete facial rejuvenation.

Incisions are strategically placed in the natural folds of the upper eyelids or just below the lash line of the lower eyelids, making scars virtually imperceptible once healed. The recovery is relatively quick, with patients returning to their routine within one to two weeks.

What is Blepharoplasty?

Overview

Blepharoplasty is a specialized facial plastic surgery designed to enhance the shape and contour of the eyelids. Over time, gravity and loss of elasticity lead to sagging upper lids and puffy lower lids, which can sometimes interfere with vision or create a tired look.

During the procedure, the surgeon makes incision lines within the natural structures of the eyelid region. Excess skin, muscle fibers, and pockets of fat are carefully trimmed or repositioned. The goal is to produce a refreshed, rested, and naturally youthful eye area.

An eyelid lift can help improve:

The aim of blepharoplasty surgery is not to create an artificial look. A well-planned procedure should make the eyes look fresher, brighter and more rested while keeping your natural facial character.

  • Droopy upper eyelids
  • Hooded eyelids
  • Loose eyelid skin
  • Under-eye bags
  • Puffy lower eyelids
  • Tired-looking eyes
  • Heavy eyelids
  • Reduced eyelid definition
  • Aged appearance around the eyes
Options

Treatment options

01

Upper Eyelid Surgery

Upper eyelid surgery focuses on loose or sagging skin above the eyes. This is often chosen by patients who feel their eyelids look heavy, hooded or aged.

Upper blepharoplasty can help create a more open and refreshed eye appearance. In some cases, excess upper eyelid skin may also affect vision, especially when the skin hangs over the lash line.

During the procedure, excess skin and tissue are carefully removed through a discreet incision placed in the natural eyelid crease. This helps keep scarring minimal and well-hidden once healed.

02

Lower Eyelid Surgery

Lower eyelid surgery targets under-eye bags, puffiness and loose skin beneath the eyes. It may involve removing or repositioning fat to create a smoother transition between the lower eyelid and cheek.

Lower blepharoplasty can help patients who feel they look tired even when they are well-rested. It is especially useful for under-eye bags caused by fat bulging rather than only pigmentation or dark circles.

If under-eye hollowness is present, your surgeon will assess whether fat repositioning or another approach may be more suitable.

03

Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty

Some patients benefit from upper and lower eyelid surgery together. This approach treats both hooded upper eyelids and under-eye bags in one surgical plan.

Upper and lower blepharoplasty may be suitable if ageing affects the entire eye area. It can create a more balanced and complete rejuvenation result while still keeping the eyes natural.

Your surgeon will advise whether treating both eyelids in one procedure is suitable based on your anatomy, medical history and desired result.

Am I Suitable for Eyelid Surgery?
Suitability

Am I Suitable for Eyelid Surgery?

You may be suitable for eyelid surgery in Turkey if you have loose eyelid skin, hooded upper eyelids, under-eye bags or a tired appearance around the eyes.

Good candidates usually:

Blepharoplasty may not be suitable if your concern is mainly eyebrow drooping, dark circles from pigmentation, or hollow under-eyes without excess skin or fat. In these cases, another treatment may be recommended.

  • Are in good general health
  • Have realistic expectations
  • Have loose upper eyelid skin
  • Have under-eye bags or puffiness
  • Want a refreshed but natural look
  • Do not have uncontrolled eye conditions
  • Can follow recovery instructions
  • Can stop smoking before and after surgery if required

Eyelid Surgery Cost in the UK

Private eyelid surgery in the UK can be expensive, especially when consultation fees, clinic charges, anaesthesia and follow-up appointments are calculated separately. The price may increase if both upper and lower eyelids are treated together.

Eyelid Surgery Cost in Turkey

Yüzyıl Hospital

Eyelid surgery in Turkey is often more affordable for Yüzyıl Hospital patients while still offering structured medical care and international patient support. At Yüzyıl Hospital, your final quote is prepared after consultation because each patient’s eyelid anatomy and treatment plan is different.

Your price may depend on:

  • Upper eyelid surgery
  • Lower eyelid surgery
  • Upper and lower blepharoplasty
  • Anaesthesia type
  • Clinic or hospital setting
  • Surgeon assessment
  • Recovery support
  • Combined procedures

Although price is important, the safest choice should not be based only on the lowest cost. Successful blepharoplasty surgery depends on precise planning, surgeon experience, natural results and proper aftercare.

Recovery

Eyelid Surgery Recovery Timeline

Timeframe

What to expect

Recovery progress

First 24–48 Hours

Swelling, bruising, tightness and mild discomfort are normal after eyelid surgery. You may be advised to keep your head elevated and use cold compresses as instructed.

First Week

Bruising and swelling are usually most visible during the first week. You should avoid heavy activity, rubbing the eyes, bending and wearing eye makeup until advised.

2–3 Weeks

Most patients feel more comfortable and can return to light daily routines. Bruising usually fades, although mild swelling may remain.

4–6 Weeks

The eye area looks more settled, and the results become clearer. Scars continue to soften and fade gradually.

3–6 Months

Final blepharoplasty results continue to refine as the tissues fully heal. The eyes usually appear fresher, brighter and more rested.

Eyelid Surgery Before and After Results

Many patients search for eyelid surgery before and after or blepharoplasty before and after photos before deciding on treatment. These images can help patients understand possible results, but every outcome depends on individual anatomy.

Your result may depend on:

A successful blepharoplasty before and after result should look refreshed and natural, not tight or overdone.

  • Fat distribution around the eyes
  • Skin quality
  • Ageing pattern
  • Whether upper or lower eyelids are treated
  • Healing process
  • Scar care
  • Aftercare compliance
01

Eyelid Surgery Scars

Good to know

Eyelid surgery scars are usually very discreet. For upper eyelid surgery, the incision is typically placed in the natural eyelid crease. For lower eyelid surgery, the incision may be placed just below the lash line or inside the lower eyelid, depending on the technique.

Scars may look pink in the early healing stage, but they usually fade well over time. Your surgeon will explain scar care and healing expectations before the procedure.

If the brow is causing the eyelids to look heavy, brow lift may be recommended instead of or alongside eyelid surgery. During your consultation, the medical team will assess whether your concern comes from the eyelids, brows or both.

01

Can Eyelid Surgery Remove Dark Circles?

Overview

Eyelid surgery can improve under-eye bags and puffiness, especially when caused by fat bulging. However, it may not fully remove dark circles caused by pigmentation, thin skin or genetics.

If your main concern is dark under-eyes rather than loose skin or eye bags, your surgeon may discuss alternative treatments.

FAQ

Eyelid Surgery FAQs

Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to improve the appearance of the upper and/or lower eyelids. It involves removing or repositioning excess skin, fat, and muscle to tighten the surrounding structures and create a more youthful and alert look.

Good candidates are adults who have droopy upper eyelids, excess skin that may block peripheral vision, or prominent bags under their eyes. Candidates should be in good general health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations about the outcomes of the procedure.

Most patients experience swelling and bruising for about 7 to 10 days. Stitches are typically removed within a week. Most individuals can return to work and light daily activities within 10 to 14 days, though full healing and final cosmetic results may take a few weeks to settle.

The incisions for upper blepharoplasty are hidden in the natural crease of the eyelid. For lower blepharoplasty, the incision is either just below the lower eyelashes or inside the eyelid (transconjunctival). Consequently, the scars are very discreet and fade to become almost invisible over time.

Yes, if suitable. Upper and lower blepharoplasty can be performed together for more complete eye rejuvenation.

Lower eyelid surgery can reduce under-eye bags caused by excess or bulging fat.

It may improve shadows caused by eye bags, but it may not fully correct dark circles caused by pigmentation or thin skin.

Yes, but scars are usually very discreet because incisions are placed in natural eyelid creases or hidden areas.

Most patients return to light activities within 1–2 weeks, while final results continue to improve over several months.

The eyelid surgery cost in Turkey depends on whether upper, lower or combined blepharoplasty is performed. A final quote is provided after consultation.

In many cases, blepharoplasty in Turkey is more affordable than private surgery in the UK, but safety, surgeon experience and natural results should always come first.

Yes. Yüzyıl Hospital patients can begin with an online consultation or a face-to-face consultation in London before travelling to Turkey.

Your return date depends on your recovery and surgeon’s advice. You should stay in Turkey long enough for surgery, early healing and follow-up checks.
