Cosmetic Eye Surgery (Blepharoplasty) in Mumbai – Kurla BKC, Kalina & Bandra W

Blepharoplasty — cosmetic eyelid surgery — addresses the changes that ageing, gravity, and genetics bring to the delicate skin around the eyes. Whether it is heavy, hooded upper eyelids that make you look tired or prominent lower lid bags, cosmetic eye surgery at Doctor Mickey's Eye Care Center is performed with an ophthalmologist's precision and an aesthetic eye calibrated to look natural, not operated.

What Is Cosmetic Eye Surgery (Blepharoplasty)?

Upper blepharoplasty removes excess skin and sometimes fat from the upper eyelid crease, restoring the eyelid's natural platform and opening the eye. Lower blepharoplasty addresses fat prolapse and skin laxity contributing to under-eye bags. Both procedures can be performed under local anaesthesia, often in combination.

Who Is It For?

This procedure is generally suited to patients meeting the following criteria:

Patients with excess upper eyelid skin causing a heavy or tired appearance
Those with under-eye bags or hollowing affecting self-confidence
Upper eyelid hooding that subtly reduces the visual field (borderline functional- cosmetic)
Patients in good general health seeking a refreshed appearance

What Happens During the Procedure?

Each step is performed with precision and patient comfort in mind.

Step 1: Consultation: photographs, discussion of goals and realistic outcomes
Step 2: Markings made with the patient seated upright
Step 3: Local anaesthesia with sedation if preferred
Step 4: Excess skin and/or fat removed; incisions closed with fine sutures
Step 5: Cold compresses applied; patient discharged home the same day

Recovery & What to Expect

Swelling and bruising peaks at Day 3–4 then steadily improves. Most patients are comfortable in public by 10–14 days. Sutures removed at Day 7. Final results visible at 6–8 weeks when all swelling resolves.

Benefits

Patients choosing this procedure typically experience the following benefits:

Natural-looking result when planned conservatively
Long-lasting — upper blepharoplasty results typically last 8–12 years
Improves visual field in cases of functional hooding
Performed by an ophthalmologist who understands eyelid anatomy at the deepest level

FAQFrequently Asked Questions

Will I look 'done'?

The goal is always to look refreshed and like yourself — not operated. Conservative planning, respect for natural anatomy, and precise execution produce results that colleagues and family notice as 'you look well rested' rather than 'you've had surgery'.

Is blepharoplasty painful?

Local anaesthesia makes the procedure comfortable. Post-operatively, the area is tender rather than acutely painful — managed well with standard pain relief.

What is the cost of cosmetic eyelid surgery in Mumbai?

Costs depend on whether one or both lids are addressed and the complexity. Dr. Mickey's team will provide a clear, itemised quote at your consultation.
