Lower Blepharoplasty

Lower Blepharoplasty (Lower Eyelid Surgery)

Lower Blepharoplasty is a cosmetic procedure that rejuvenates the under-eye area by removing or repositioning excess fat and tightening loose skin. It effectively reduces under-eye bags, puffiness, and tired-looking eyes, creating a smoother and more youthful contour. At Silur Clinic in Tirana, Albania, our surgeons use advanced, precise techniques to deliver natural results that refresh your appearance without altering your expression.

Techniques

At Silur Clinic, lower blepharoplasty can be performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the patient’s needs. The procedure usually lasts between 1 and 2 hours.

Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty – targets under-eye bags by removing or repositioning fat and tightening the skin to restore a firm, youthful under-eye area.
Techniques include:

• Transconjunctival approach – the incision is placed inside the lower eyelid, ideal for patients who need fat removal or repositioning with no external scar.

• Subciliary approach – the incision is placed just below the lash line, allowing removal of excess skin when needed.

Both techniques ensure minimal visible scarring and very natural results.

Care After Lower Blepharoplasty Surgery

Recovery is typically smooth and gradual. Mild swelling, bruising, tearing, or tightness under the eyes may occur in the first days. Cold compresses and prescribed eye drops help reduce discomfort and support healing.

Stitches (if external incisions are used) are removed after 5–7 days. Most patients return to daily activities within 7–10 days, although swelling may continue to refine over several weeks. Sun exposure, strenuous exercise, and rubbing the eyes should be avoided during the healing period.

As the area settles, results reveal smoother under-eyes, reduced bags, and a fresher, more rested appearance. Silur Clinic provides thorough aftercare instructions and continuous follow-up to ensure safe healing and long-lasting, natural results.
