The skin of the eyelids, the thinnest on the body, loosens with aging and sun exposure, which can lead to excess skin drooping over the eyes. Blepharoplasty, an outpatient surgical procedure performed at the Lausanne clinic, involves removing this excess skin and sometimes a small amount of fat. The goal is to restore a rested and natural appearance to the eyes, without altering facial expression, while respecting the patient’s anatomy and harmony.
Blepharoplasty, an eyelid surgery, corrects dermatochalasis, a skin laxity of the upper eyelids that can be bothersome both aesthetically and functionally.
Blepharoplasty performed at the Lausanne clinic aims for a natural result, without a stretched look. A clear improvement becomes visible within a few weeks, while the final result is appreciated around three months.

Excision of excess skin and sometimes fat by incision or laser, with fine sutures for a natural appearance.
Swelling and bruising gradually diminish; cold compresses, rest, and sun protection promote healing and post-operative comfort.
Recovery depends on the type of professional activity and any bruising. On average, a break of a few days to two weeks is recommended after blepharoplasty performed at the Lausanne clinic.
Skin can naturally loosen over time, but the results of blepharoplasty generally remain long-lasting, often between 20 and 30 years, depending on skin quality and lifestyle.
