Blepharoplasty

Mr. Ijaz Sheikh trained in oculoplastic surgery at Queen Victoria Hospital, one of the UK’s leading centres for reconstructive and cosmetic eyelid procedures. His approach is:

• Tailored to your face and function
• Focused on natural-looking, symmetrical results
• Backed by over 40 years of clinical experience
• Delivered with safety, precision, and a calm, caring manner

You may benefit from blepharoplasty if you have:

• Sagging or hooded upper eyelids
• Puffy or baggy lower eyelids
• Tired or aged appearance around the eyes
• Visual field obstruction from eyelid skin
• Desire for eyelid rejuvenation

• Usually done under local anaesthetic
• Upper eyelid: A fine incision is made in the natural crease to remove excess skin/fat
• Lower eyelid: Incision made just below lashes or inside the eyelid
• Stitches are often removed within 5–7 days

Minimal scarring, typically hidden in natural folds

• Mild swelling and bruising for 1–2 weeks
• Light activities after 2–3 days
• Final results visible within several weeks

Scars fade over time, often barely noticeable
