Blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery), is a cosmetic procedure that rejuvenates the appearance of the eyes by removing excess skin, fat, or muscle from the upper and/or lower eyelids. It helps correct drooping eyelids, under-eye bags, and tired-looking eyes, restoring a fresher, more youthful, and rested appearance. At Silur Clinic in Tirana, Albania, our surgeons combine precision and artistry to deliver natural results that enhance facial harmony without altering your unique expression.

Techniques

At Silur Clinic, blepharoplasty can be performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the case. The procedure typically lasts 1 to 2.5 hours.

• Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty – involves removing excess skin and fat to correct drooping eyelids that may affect both appearance and, in some cases, vision.

• Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty – targets puffiness, fat deposits, and under-eye bags, creating a smoother, more youthful contour.

Incisions are discreetly placed along the natural eyelid creases or inside the lower eyelid, ensuring minimal visible scarring.

Care After Blepharoplasty Surgery

Recovery after blepharoplasty is generally quick. Patients may experience mild swelling, bruising, or irritation during the first few days. Cold compresses and prescribed eye drops can help with healing. Stitches are usually removed within 5–7 days, and most patients can return to daily activities in about a week. Strenuous activity and sun exposure should be avoided for several weeks. As swelling subsides, the final results reveal brighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking eyes. At Silur Clinic, we provide detailed aftercare instructions and continuous follow-up to ensure safe recovery and natural, long-lasting results.
