FACE CLINIC is a leading clinic in Spain, specialised in blepharoplasty — also known as eyelid surgery — a cosmetic procedure designed to rejuvenate and improve the appearance of the upper and lower eyelids.
We offer customised treatments for each patient, from correcting droopy or hooded eyelids to performing more complex adjustments.
Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic procedure that removes or repositions excess skin, fat or muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. It helps to rejuvenate the eyes, reduce drooping or puffiness and restore a brighter, more youthful look.
At Face Clinic Spain, our specialists use advanced 3D digital planning and minimally invasive techniques to achieve precise, natural and long-lasting results that enhance facial harmony.
Blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery consists of the removal of excess skin and the extirpation of prominent fat bags, in order to rejuvenate the appearance of the look with surgery, with natural results, preventing, through innovative techniques, the appearance of inexpressive or operated eye.
Blepharoplasty is indicated for all those who seek a rejuvenation of the eyes, eliminating bags, or excess skin of the eyelids.
It is performed on the upper and lower eyelids to correct aesthetic and functional problems.
Generally, eyelid surgery is recommended from the age of 35 or older, but in some cases with a family tendency to have bags, patients are younger.
Blepharoplasty can remove excess skin and fat in the upper eyelids, helping to lift them and improve the appearance of the eyes.
These bags can make the area appear tired or puffy, and surgery can remove these accumulations of fat for a more rejuvenated appearance.
While it does not always completely eliminate dark circles under the eyes, blepharoplasty can reduce the appearance of shadows or furrows in the under-eye area by removing excess skin or fat.
In severe cases, excess skin can obstruct the visual field and make vision difficult. Blepharoplasty can correct this obstruction and improve visibility by lifting the eyelids.
In addition to the above, blepharoplasty can also help reduce wrinkles and sagging in the eye area, contributing to a more rejuvenated appearance.
For the upper eyelids, eyelid surgery involves the removal of excess skin and fat that can cause a droopy or puffy appearance. An incision is made in the natural crease of the eyelid, effectively concealing scars.
For the lower eyelids, the main objective is to reduce bags or puffiness under the eyes. The incision can be made just below the eyelashes or on the inner part of the eyelid, depending on the case. Through this incision, the accumulated fat is removed or redistributed and, if necessary, the excess skin is tightened or removed.
Eyelid surgery is performed under local anesthesia with sedation or under general anesthesia, depending on the complexity of the case and the patient’s preference.

The main differences between traditional blepharoplasty, subciliary blepharoplasty and transconjunctival blepharoplasty are in the areas of focus and the incisions used.
The choice of technique will depend on the specific problems to be treated, the patient’s preferences and the evaluation performed by the surgeon.
After blepharoplasty, the eyes often look more rested and rejuvenated. Excess skin and bags under the eyes are removed, resulting in a fresher, less fatigued appearance. Although swelling and bruising are common initially, most patients achieve noticeable aesthetic improvement by the end of the recovery process.
As with any surgery, there are risks involved in blepharoplasty. Some possible complications include infection, bleeding, visible scarring, alterations in the shape of the eyelids, or temporary problems such as dry eyes or difficulty closing the eyes completely. However, these problems are rare and can be solved with proper attention.
The results of blepharoplasty can last from 5 to 10 years, depending on natural aging and aftercare. Although it does not stop aging, eyelid surgery significantly delays the appearance of visible signs of aging in the eyes, maintaining a more youthful appearance for several years.

Individuals who have drooping eyelids, bags under the eyes, or excess eyelid skin are ideal candidates for blepharoplasty. It is also appropriate for those seeking to improve facial aesthetics and correct signs of aging. General health should be good, and there should be no serious eye diseases or medical problems that could interfere with eyelid surgery.
Recovery from blepharoplasty generally takes 1 to 2 weeks. During this time, patients may experience swelling, bruising and some discomfort. However, most of the swelling and bruising subsides within the first 7-10 days, and most can resume normal activities with caution after that period.
Blepharoplasty is not recommended for people with certain medical conditions, such as severe clotting problems, eye infections, advanced glaucoma, or autoimmune diseases that affect healing. In addition, people who do not have realistic expectations about the results or who are not in good general health may not be suitable candidates for eyelid surgery.
The results of blepharoplasty are usually visible after a few weeks, once the swelling and bruising subside.
However, the final appearance may take several months to fully appreciate as the tissues heal and settle.
It is important to note that results may vary from person to person and the recovery process, but all patients notice a significant improvement in the appearance of their eyelids after completing the recovery period.
The surgeon makes precise incisions in the upper and lower eyelids to remove excess skin, fat or muscle that may cause puffiness or wrinkles.
The remaining tissues are then reshaped for a more youthful, revitalized appearance.
Eyelid surgery can be performed under local anesthesia, with sedation or general anesthesia, and is usually completed in a few hours as an outpatient surgery.
Yes, we can apply cold to reduce swelling and bruising.
The patient may not be able to close the eyes completely due to swelling, which will subside after a few days. In these cases an ointment is recommended to prevent eye irritation, especially for sleeping.
The surgeon will also recommend analgesics or anti-inflammatory medications to reduce pain or swelling.
The results are long-lasting, but not totally permanent.
Although eyelid surgery can remove excess skin and fat from the eyelids, the natural aging process can continue over time, which can affect the appearance of the eyelids.
However, many patients experience significant improvement that can last for years, and results can be maintained with proper skin care and a healthy lifestyle.
Determining who is the best blepharoplasty surgeon in Spain depends on several factors, such as experience, training, techniques used and results obtained.

In addition, it is important that the surgeon has a solid reputation, experience in eyelid surgery and a personalized approach to each patient.
