Cost of Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty) for Ageing Eyes
Are you looking for blepharoplasty costs in India? Cost can vary based on the patient’s Eyelid condition.
Every year, thousands of people in Bangalore and the world choose to have cosmetic surgery performed on the eyes: eyelid correction (also called blepharoplasty). Eyelid correction is a relatively small procedure, which has dramatic results. After eyelid corrective surgery you look younger, more alert, and less tired, boosting your self-confidence.

Blepharoplasty usually involves the removal of excess fat or skin from the upper and lower eyelids, thus restoring a refreshed look and giving the eyes a more plump and youthful appearance.
Who is a good candidate for eyelid surgery?
Specifically, blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery can help treat the following:
- Excess fat deposits under the eyes, that make eyes appear puffy
- Sagging or drooping skin that deforms the natural shape of the eyelids
- Wrinkles and fine lines under the eyes
- Bags under the eyes
- Drooping brow
- Drooping lateral angle of the eye
- Asian blepharoplasty- lack of crease in the upper eyelid

What does the blepharoplasty procedure at Venkat Center Bangalore involve?
- The simple procedure usually takes around one hour and is performed with local anaesthesia.
- Small incisions are made in and around the upper and lower eyelids – to minimise visibility, incisions are always made around natural skin creases and folds.
- Once the incisions are in place, excess fat and skin are trimmed away, and fine sutures are used to close the gaps.
- In “transconjunctival” eyelid surgery, which deals exclusively with removing excess fat in the lower eyelid, no sutures are used. The fat is approached from the inner surface of the eyelid so there are no suture lines on the skin.
What else can be done along with blepharoplasty?
- Browlift – Often, along with the eyelid, the eyebrow also droops and causes hooding. This can be corrected through the blepharoplasty incision itself. The brow is lifted and fixed to a predetermined mark without any additional scar.
- Canthopexy – Another sign of ageing is that the lateral angle of the eye falls to a lower level than the medial angle. This can also be corrected during a blepharoplasty.
Comprehensive treatment
Along with blepharoplasty, we usually also perform fat grafting to restore any lost volume and correct all aspects of the ageing face.
What is Asian blepharoplasty?
In some individuals, particularly from East Asia, the upper eyelid is flat and lacks a crease. This gives an unnatural ‘mannequin’ look. In these individuals, a crease can be created during surgery, and this technique is called Asian blepharoplasty.

Are there any non-surgical options for blepharoplasty?
Till recently there were no good non-surgical options, as there was no reliable treatment to reduce the extra skin. However recently, a platform has emerged named INMODE ACCUTITE, which uses radiofrequency energy to cause skin contraction.
How is this different from other machines?
- It uses energy both below and above the skin which gives superior results to other devices.
- It has a special probe named accutite which is small and fine enough to be used on the eyelid safely and effectively. Other devices do not have this level of accuracy and can only be used in larger areas.
How is ACCUTITE done? Is it safe?
It is done as an outpatient procedure under local anaesthesia, the patient goes home in half an hour. The device has numerous safeguards built-in which ensure complete safety. The results are seen immediately, with the best results after 6 weeks and improving even further over 12 months.
The best candidates for this procedure are those with a moderate amount of skin excess, who don’t want a surgical procedure. To know more click here.
