Upper lid blepharoplasty
Upper Lid Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Lift Surgery) at Eyelid Surgery Manchester
Do your upper eyelids feel heavy, make your eyes look tired, or even interfere with your vision? Upper lid blepharoplasty is a delicate procedure that removes or repositions excess skin and fat from the upper eyelids—restoring a fresher, more open look to the eyes.
At Eyelid Surgery Manchester, your treatment is carried out by Mr Paul Cannon, a consultant oculoplastic surgeon at Manchester Royal Eye Hospital. With his specialist expertise, the procedure is carefully tailored to your needs—whether you want a subtle rejuvenation or relief from functional problems such as hooded skin affecting your sight.
Surgery is usually performed as a day-case under local anaesthetic (with sedation if preferred), with fine stitches hidden in the natural eyelid crease. Most patients notice lighter, more youthful eyes soon after treatment, with results that look natural—not “overdone.”
Our goal is simple: to restore comfort, confidence, and clarity—helping your eyes look as vibrant as you feel.
