Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery)

Blepharoplasty is the cosmetic surgery of the eyelids. It corrects excess skin of the upper eyelids, which weighs down the gaze and gives a tired look, as well as bags under the eyes, caused by small fatty herniations. The gaze thus regains openness and freshness, without any change to its expression. For the upper eyelids, the incision is concealed in the natural crease of the eyelid; for the lower eyelids, it is placed just below the lashes or via an internal, invisible approach when only the bags need to be treated. The scars quickly become imperceptible. It is a gentle procedure, often performed as day surgery, with a simple recovery: a few days of swelling and bruising, light local care, then a rapid return to social life. At Clinique Pasteur Tunis, blepharoplasty is performed by plastic surgeons under optimal operating theatre conditions, with a comfortable day-surgery pathway and attentive monitoring of healing.
