EYELID SURGERY

Skin and underlying tissue of upper and/or lower eyelids is tightened and trimmed to reduce wrinkles and “eye-bags”.

Many different techniques are available – each is suited to a different clinical presentation
Surgical scars are visible for a few weeks but rapidly fade to become unnoticeable
Dramatic rejuvenation of whole face can be achieved with attention to this one area
Procedure performed under light sedation and local anaesthetic in our fully-equipped facility.

Recovery: one to two weeks

Surgical risks will be discussed in detail at your first consultation.

Cost: Medicare rebate may apply in selected cases.

DOUBLE-EYELID PROCEDURE

Suitable for Asian patients with “single” upper eyelid fold – found in about 40% of Oriental Asian eyes. A new, higher fold is created surgically, revealing the skin below the fold to create a “double-eyelid” appearance.

This can be achieved through an “open incision” or using a “closed-suture” technique
Open technique is superior and longer-lasting but requires incision, leaving a very faint scar.

Closed technique requires no incision but results can fade with time, requiring another procedure.

Cost: Medicare rebate may apply in selected cases.
