Understanding the Condition

Cosmetic Eye Surgery

As we age, the elasticity of our skin weakens causing drooping eyelids, excess skin folds, and bags under the eyes. These changes are not just cosmetic; drooping upper eyelids (ptosis) can impair vision. Our oculoplastic specialists address both functional and aesthetic concerns with precision and care.

how is it done?

Here’s how the cosmetic eye service is typically done:

  • Initial consultation: The process starts with a detailed assessment where the specialist examines your eyes, eyelids, and surrounding skin, and discusses your concerns (such as wrinkles, sagging skin, or tired-looking eyes).
  • Evaluation and planning: The doctor determines the most suitable cosmetic approach based on your condition, skin elasticity, and desired results. The clinic emphasizes a careful, patient-focused approach before recommending any procedure.
  • Treatment procedure: Depending on the need, treatment may involve non-surgical methods (like skin rejuvenation techniques) or minor surgical procedures targeting wrinkles, fine lines, or drooping eyelids. These are done using specialized ophthalmic equipment and techniques.
  • Aftercare and follow-up: After the procedure, patients are guided on recovery, eye care, and follow-up visits to monitor healing and results.

In simple terms, the cosmetic service at Georgina is done in a structured medical way starting with assessment, then personalized treatment, and ending with proper follow-up to ensure both safety and good aesthetic results.

Frequently Asked Questions

If upper eyelid drooping (ptosis) or excess skin is obscuring your visual field, surgery can significantly improve your peripheral vision as well as appearance.

Upper eyelid surgery results typically last 10–15 years. Lower eyelid results are generally very long-lasting. Skin continues to age naturally.

Most eyelid procedures are comfortably performed under local anaesthesia with sedation. General anaesthesia is available if preferred.

Incisions are placed in natural eyelid creases and are virtually undetectable once healed. Our surgeons are meticulous about scar placement and closure.
