Blepharoplasty in Graz and 1010 Wien
The perfect blepharoplasty leads to a tremendous improvement of the facial appearance, a vital look, by removing the tired look off the faces. The operation performed under local anesthesia, or sedation leaves just minimal scars, which are vanishing normally soon, with a short down time (1-2 weeks) leaving a natural, non-operated look.

Results
Many people seek eyelid lift surgery to regain their youthful looks. Understandably, blepharoplasty is a surgery choice that yields lasting, noticeable cosmetic results. After removing and resculpting tissue in the area, skin textures achieve a smoother and tighter appearance. This is one of the many clear-cut cosmetic benefits of blepharoplasty. After their procedure, our patients also experience better-defined eye shape and a more satisfying overall facial appearance. Ten to 15 days after your procedure, your successful results will be apparent in the form of a brighter, more rested face.
Due to patient confidentiality reasons, we have decided not to display patient before and after photos on our website.
If you wish to view before and after photos, select patients have agreed to have their photos shown in the privacy of our office. Please contact us for a consult if you wish to view photographs of the results of our aesthetic plastic surgery procedures as well as discuss which procedures would be most beneficial for you.
Recovering from Eyelid Lift Surgery
After blepharoplasty, the patients can expect some short-term swelling and bruising. They may experience temporary, manageable pain, sensitivity to light, and blurred vision, so it is best to take it easy immediately following the procedure. Wearing dark glasses and staying out of the sun is vital for healing to take place simply and quickly. Surgical incisions are usually sealed with sutures or skin glue, so it is important to refrain from touching or rubbing the area, as this may impede the healing process. A cold compress and eye drops are useful items that inhibit swelling and provide relief. Medication may also be useful to prevent dry eyes and post-surgical irritation.
Cost of Eyelid Lift Surgery
The cost of eyelid surgery varies from patient to patient (starting from EUR 3000.- for upper- and EUR 4500.- for lower blepharoplasty). An accurate estimate for the blepharoplasty procedure following personal consultation will be provided.
