See how an eyelid lift will brighten and open your eyes

What is an Eyelid Lift?

An eyelid lift, medically known as upper blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin, muscle, and sometimes fat from the upper eyelids to create a more open, youthful, and refreshed eye appearance. Hooded or drooping upper eyelids are one of the most common signs of facial aging and can even obstruct peripheral vision in severe cases. During the procedure, the surgeon makes an incision along the natural crease of the upper eyelid, removes redundant tissue, and closes with fine sutures that become virtually invisible once healed. The surgery takes 1-2 hours under local anesthesia and costs $3,000-$7,000. Upper blepharoplasty is one of the most popular facial procedures because it produces dramatic results with relatively minimal recovery. Results last 7-10 years and create brighter, more defined eyes.

Why Preview Eyelid Lift Results?

The eyelids frame your eyes and are central to facial expression. Previewing results helps you understand how much skin removal will open your eyes while maintaining a natural look. Our simulator shows you the difference between subtle refreshment and dramatic lid transformation, helping you and your surgeon agree on the ideal amount of tissue to remove for beautiful, natural-looking results.

Common Eyelid Lift Questions

How much does an eyelid lift cost?

Upper blepharoplasty typically costs $3,000-$7,000. If combined with lower blepharoplasty, total cost may reach $8,000-$12,000.

Is eyelid lift covered by insurance?

If hooded eyelids obstruct your vision (functional blepharoplasty), insurance may cover part of the cost. A visual field test is typically required for pre-approval.

How long does an eyelid lift last?

Results typically last 7-10 years. The eyelids age slower after surgery, though gravity and aging eventually cause some recurrence.

Is eyelid surgery painful?

Most patients report minimal pain. The area may feel tight and swollen for a few days, well-managed with cold compresses and mild pain medication.

How accurate is the eyelid lift simulator?

Our AI precisely measures eyelid skin excess and models realistic tissue removal, providing an accurate preview of how blepharoplasty will open and refresh your eyes.

Real User Experience

"My hooded lids made my eyes look so small and tired. The simulator showed me how much more open my eyes would look and I couldn't believe the difference. After surgery, I look 10 years younger!"
