Types of Eyelid Surgery
Upper Blepharoplasty
Upper eyelid surgery removes excess skin and fat from heavy or hooded upper lids, opening up the eye and lifting that draped, tired look. It's the most common eyelid procedure.
Lower Eyelid Surgery
Lower eyelid surgery targets under-eye bags and puffiness, removing or repositioning fat and smoothing the skin for a less tired appearance.
Double Eyelid Surgery
Sometimes called Asian blepharoplasty, this creates or defines a crease in the upper eyelid for those who don't naturally have one and want a more open eye shape.
2-Lid vs 4-Lid (Quad) Blepharoplasty
Some patients treat only the upper or only the lower lids (2-lid), while others address all four (quad blepharoplasty) for a fully refreshed eye area in a single procedure. Your surgeon advises which suits your concerns.
Transconjunctival (Scarless) Blepharoplasty
A lower-lid technique performed from inside the eyelid, which leaves no external scar. It's well suited to younger patients whose main concern is bulging fat rather than excess skin.
Combination Upper & Lower Blepharoplasty
For patients with concerns affecting both the upper and lower eyelids, a combined blepharoplasty addresses drooping upper lids and under-eye bags in a single procedure. Treating both areas together provides a more balanced and comprehensive facial rejuvenation while requiring only one recovery period.

What is Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)?

Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that improves the appearance of the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. It removes loose, sagging skin, repositions or reduces fat pockets that cause puffiness, and tightens the area for a smoother contour. Also referred to as an eye lift or cosmetic eye surgery, blepharoplasty is one of the most requested facial procedures because it makes a noticeable difference to how rested and alert you look, with relatively little downtime.

Cosmetic vs Functional Blepharoplasty

There are two reasons people have eyelid surgery. Cosmetic blepharoplasty improves appearance softening hooded lids and under-eye bags. Functional blepharoplasty corrects sagging upper-eyelid skin that has drooped far enough to crowd the field of vision. Many patients fall somewhere in between, wanting both a refreshed look and clearer sight.

Why Eyelids Sag and Puff With Age

The skin around the eyes is the thinnest on the body, so it shows wear first. With age it loses collagen and elasticity, the muscles supporting the lids weaken, and the small fat pads that cushion the eye begin to bulge forward creating bags below and heaviness above. Genetics, sun exposure, and lifestyle all influence how early this happens. It’s worth being clear, though, that blepharoplasty addresses excess skin and fat it doesn’t erase dark circles, crow’s feet, or a sagging brow, which are separate concerns.

Am I a Candidate for Eyelid Surgery?

You may be a good candidate if you have hooded or heavy upper lids, under-eye bags, or excess eyelid skin affecting your vision. Ideal candidates are in good general health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations. Most patients are in their forties to sixties, though younger people sometimes choose it for defined or puffy eyes. Because eyelid heaviness often accompanies brow descent, many patients combine it with an Eyebrow Lift Surgery in Mumbai, or with a Facelift Surgery in Mumbai for broader rejuvenation.

The Blepharoplasty Procedure – Step by Step

1

Consultation & Eye Assessment

Your surgeon assesses your eyelids, skin, brow position, and tear function, discusses your goals, and plans whether the upper, lower, or both lids need treatment. Your medical and eye history is reviewed here.

2

Anesthesia

Eyelid surgery is usually performed under local anaesthesia with sedation, though general anaesthesia may be used for quad blepharoplasty or when combined with other procedures.

3

The Surgical Steps

For the upper lid, the incision is hidden in the natural eyelid crease; for the lower lid, it sits just below the lash line or inside the lid. Excess skin and fat are removed or repositioned, and the incisions are closed with fine sutures.

4

Duration & Day-Care

Blepharoplasty is typically an outpatient, day-care procedure, so you go home the same day. The exact time depends on whether one or both lids are treated.

Eyelid Surgery Cost in Mumbai

The cost of eyelid surgery in Mumbai depends on:

  • Type of procedure (upper, lower, or both)
  • Extent of correction required
  • Individual treatment plan

At Navaa Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery Clinic, each procedure is customized to ensure safe and natural-looking results.

Factors Affecting the Cost

The cost of eyelid surgery in Mumbai depends on whether you’re treating the upper, lower, or all four lids, the technique used, the surgeon’s experience, and the anaesthesia involved. 

Cost by Type

A single-lid procedure costs less than a combined upper-and-lower or quad blepharoplasty. Double eyelid surgery and scarless techniques are priced according to their complexity, and your exact quote is confirmed at consultation.

Is Eyelid Surgery Covered by Insurance?

Cosmetic eyelid surgery is generally not covered. However, functional blepharoplasty may be partly covered when drooping upper-lid skin significantly obstructs vision and this is documented with a visual-field test. Coverage depends on your policy, and our team can advise on what your insurer is likely to require.

FAQs – Eyelid Surgery in Mumbai

Is eyelid surgery painful?

Most patients feel mild discomfort, tightness, or pressure rather than real pain. It's well managed with medication and usually settles within the first few days.

Will blepharoplasty leave visible scars?

Incisions are hidden in the natural eyelid crease, just below the lash line, or inside the lid, so scarring is minimal and fades over time. The transconjunctival technique leaves no external scar at all.

How long do the results of eyelid surgery last?

Results are long-lasting upper eyelid surgery often lasts many years, and lower eyelid results can be effectively permanent. Your eyes will still age gently over time, but the improvement holds well.

Is eyelid surgery covered by insurance?

Purely cosmetic surgery isn't covered, but functional cases where sagging upper-lid skin impairs vision — may be partly covered with the right documentation, such as a visual-field test. It depends on your individual policy.

Can blepharoplasty get rid of my dark circles?

Not directly. Blepharoplasty treats excess skin and fat, not pigmentation. It can reduce the shadowing caused by under-eye bags, but true dark circles are better addressed with other treatments, which we can discuss.

How long does recovery from eyelid surgery take?

Swelling and bruising typically settle within one to two weeks, with stitches usually removed around a week. Most people return to work within seven to ten days, while the final refined result emerges as residual swelling resolves over a few weeks.
