Benefits of Eyelid Surgery at Glavas Center

Personalized Upper, Lower & Full Eyelid Enhancement

Whether you want to lift heavy upper lids, smooth lower-lid puffiness, or rejuvenate the entire eye area, the Glavas Center offers tailored solutions to meet your needs. Treatments focus on reshaping and removing excess skin, refining eyelid contours, and restoring a more open and refreshed appearance.

Advanced Techniques for Natural, Balanced Results

With a focus on tissue preservation and anatomical accuracy, our team uses advanced surgical techniques that minimize visible scarring and preserve the natural character of your eyes. Every incision is carefully placed to blend seamlessly with the eyelid fold.

Smooth Recovery With Minimal Downtime

Most patients resume light activities within a few days. As swelling and bruising improve over one to two weeks, the eyelids begin to look smoother, lifted, and more defined, ideal for individuals concerned with drooping upper lids, lower-lid bags, or a fatigued eye appearance.

Eyelid Surgery FAQs

How long do upper and lower eyelid procedures take?

Upper eyelid blepharoplasty typically takes about 45–60 minutes. Lower eyelid blepharoplasty or combined eyelid surgery may take longer, depending on the complexity of your treatment plan.

Will the procedure be uncomfortable?

A local anesthetic is used to keep you comfortable during upper and lower eyelid surgery. Most patients describe a sensation of pressure rather than pain, and discomfort afterward is usually mild and manageable.

When can I return to daily activities?

Most individuals resume regular routines within several days after upper, lower, or combined eyelid surgery. Swelling and bruising continue to improve over one to two weeks, gradually revealing smoother, more refreshed eyelids.

What areas can be treated with eyelid surgery?

Treatment options include upper eyelid blepharoplasty, lower eyelid blepharoplasty, or a combination approach to address multiple concerns around the eyes. These procedures can lift sagging lids, reduce puffiness, remove excess skin, and refine the overall eyelid contour.

Is eyelid surgery covered by insurance?

Cosmetic eyelid surgery is typically not covered by insurance. Glavas Center accepts multiple payment options and offers financing through CareCredit to make treatment more accessible.

Am I a good candidate for upper, lower, or full eyelid surgery?

Good candidates have excess skin, drooping lids, or puffiness that affects the appearance or function of the eyes. During your consultation, we evaluate your anatomy and goals to determine whether upper blepharoplasty, lower blepharoplasty, or a combined approach is right for you.
