Eyelid Surgery in Dubai for a Refreshed Eye Area
What Is Eyelid Surgery and Why Is It Used For?
Eyelid plastic surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, changes the appearance of the eyelids by removing or repositioning excess skin, fat, and other tissues.
The procedure targets the regions which cause puffiness and sagging or aging around eyes.
Since upper and lower eyelids differ in their structure, the treatment methods for each area also differ. While some patients have extra skin on upper eyelids, others have problems with bags under their eyes. Some patients may need correction of both upper and lower eyelid regions.
First Dr. Sohrab evaluates the reason for the change in appearance and designs the procedure based on the particular structure of eyelids rather than using one procedure for all cases.
Why Do People Consider An Eye Lift Procedure?
People think about the procedure when:
- There is extra skin hanging from the upper eyelid
- Upper eyelids look heavy
- Puffiness under the eyes
- Bags under the eyes
- Loose skin around the lower eyelids
- They look tired although they feel well-rested
- The changes in the natural crease of the eyelid
- Age changes in the eyes area.
How Does Eyelid Surgery Change the Eye Area?
It is not just about removing the maximum amount of skin. The doctor has to take into consideration the amount of tissue present, its placement, and how the eyelid operates.
Dr. Sohrab makes such considerations prior to the operation. His surgical procedure is based upon achieving a more elegant eyelid contour and making sure that the eyes are in harmony with the face as a whole.
What Causes Droopy Eyelids and Under-Eye Bags?
There are various factors that can contribute to eyes looking puffy and heavy. Most noticeably, age plays a large role, as the skin becomes thinner and loses its elasticity. Genetics also play a role. Some people develop under-eye bags because of their genetics.
This is due to the redistribution of fat and the shape of the eyelids.
There are a number of other issues that can contribute to eyes looking puffy and heavy. Some of these include:
- Too much skin on the upper eyelid,
- Fat on the lower eyelid,
Age-related changes also contribute to a puffy or heavy appearance around the eyes. Dr. Sohrab evaluates these concerns during the consultation.
Who Is a Suitable Candidate for Eyelid Surgery?
Eyelid surgery suits adults who want to address visible concerns around the upper or lower eyelids and understand the nature of surgical treatment.
During consultation, Dr. Sohrab reviews:
- The amount of excess eyelid skin
- The position and shape of the eyelids
- Under-eye bags and fat distribution
- Skin quality
- Facial proportions
- Previous eye or facial procedures
- The changes you want to achieve
This assessment helps determine whether upper surgery, lower surgery, or a combination of both suits the concerns being treated.

Which Areas Does Eyelid Surgery Treat?
The surgery targets the upper lids, the lower lids, or both. The two areas present different problems, and that is why Dr. Sohrab performs separate examinations of the two during the consultation.
Upper Blepharoplasty for Extra Upper Eyelid Skin
This type of surgery deals with the upper lid. This procedure involves excess skin and other issues causing a heavy look.
During the consultation, Dr. Sohrab takes into account the eyelid’s crease, excess skin, and general shape of the eye. He decides how to make an incision and remove extra tissues based on the anatomical structure of the upper eyelid.
In the end, the procedure should give the patient a neat upper eyelid shape but keeping the natural appearance of his/her eyes.
Lower Blepharoplasty for Puffy Eyes
Lower blepharoplasty is concerned with problems related to under-eye areas. These include puffy eyes, bags, or loose eyelid skin below the eyes.
The lower lid needs special examination since the skin there is thin, and the structures beneath it influence the appearance. Dr. Sohrab evaluates the distribution of fat tissues, the quality of skin, and the structures of the lower eyelid. Based on this information, he selects the surgical technique.
Upper and Lower Eyelid Surgery Together
In some cases, there will be issues that need addressing in both the upper and lower eyelids. It becomes easier for Dr. Sohrab to analyze the eye area when he treats both at once.
It all depends on the condition of each eyelid. Dr. Sohrab will identify the areas to treat during your consultation session.
What Are the Benefits of an Eyelid Lift?
An eyelid lift procedure is intended for making cosmetic enhancements to the upper or lower eyelids, depending on the targeted area and needs of the patient prior to the procedure.
The main advantages of the procedure include:
- Cleaner look of the upper eyelid line
- Fewer visible signs of extra skin
- Smoother lower eyelid
- Improved look of under-eye bags
- Open look of the eye area
- Improved contours around the eyelid line
- Better harmony between the eyes and other facial features
This procedure does not attempt to make all eyes alike. The doctor performs the surgery considering the unique structure of the patient’s eyelids as well as the overall face structure
Does Eyelid Surgery Make the Eyes Look Different?
The procedure changes the tissues around the eyes, so the appearance of the eye area also changes. The extent of that change depends on the amount of excess skin, fat, and tissue present before surgery.
Dr. Sohrab discusses these changes during the consultation so the treatment plan remains clear from the beginning.
What Treatments Work Well With Eyelid Surgery?
Some people want to address more than one area of the face during the same treatment plan. In those cases, Dr. Sohrab assesses the other facial concerns before discussing combined procedures.
Eyelid Lift and Brow Lift
The eyebrows and upper eyelids are very close to each other, and they affect the look of the upper face. In case there is aging effect on both, Dr. Sohrab analyzes the brows placement, as well as the upper eyelid.
Brow lift surgery deals with the placement of the eyebrows; on the other hand, eyelid surgery concerns the eyelid itself.
Eyelid Surgery and Facelift
Facelift involves lower and middle parts of the face, whereas blepharoplasty involves the area of eyes. Patients having issues in multiple facial regions may mention both treatments in a single consultation.
However, Dr. Sohrab examines the entire face before determining if a combination of both treatments is required or not.
Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty
When excess skin or tissue affects both eyelids, Dr. Sohrab discusses treating the upper and lower areas together. This approach allows both parts of the eye area to form part of one surgical plan.
How Much Does Eyelid Surgery Cost in Dubai?
Eyelid surgery is dependent on the site of the treatment as well as the approach that will be utilized.
Several considerations determine the cost of the surgery:
Treatment site: Either the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both.
Surgical approach: Approach to be utilized will depend on the structure and issue of the eyelids.
Amount of tissue: The amount of excess skin and fat will determine the surgical procedure.
Combined surgery: Other facial surgeries will increase the demands of the entire treatment process.
Facility care: Care facility will be one of the cost determinants.
Dr. Sohrab determines the cost of surgery based on examination and confirmation of the treatment procedure.
Eyelid Surgery Before and After
How Is Eyelid Surgery Performed?
This involves the first stage of consultation. Dr. Sohrab will conduct an examination of the eyelids, associated tissues, face proportioning, and any problems that you wish to solve. Next, he will explain the technique used and which portion of the eyelid needs to be treated.
In case of upper blepharoplasty, the cut is made along the natural fold of the upper eyelid. Dr. Sohrab will excise or reshape the tissue needed to give a better shape to the eyelid. The cut is made along the natural fold, making it blend easily into the eyelid.
In the case of lower blepharoplasty, the approach varies based on the condition of the lower eyelid and the kind of tissue that needs to be operated on.
