Eyelid Lift
An Alert Gaze Through Gentle Eyelid Correction

Our eyes are the centre of communication. When drooping eyelids make the gaze appear tired or sad, a precise eyelid lift can help. At the MEDICAL ART clinic in Munich Bogenhausen, we gently remove excess tissue to restore your alert and positive radiance.

The Problem

When the Gaze Appears Tired

The skin around the eyes is particularly fine and delicate. Over time, it loses elasticity, which can significantly change the facial expression.

  • Drooping Eyelids (Upper Lid): An excess of skin on the upper lid presses on the eyelashes. The eye appears smaller, more tired, and applying make-up often becomes more difficult.
  • Under-Eye Bags (Lower Lid): Protruding fat tissue on the lower lid makes the face look exhausted, even when you feel well-rested.
  • Restricted Field of Vision: With severely pronounced drooping eyelids, there can even be a genuine restriction of the field of vision.

When creams and minimally invasive methods (such as botulinum toxin) no longer achieve a sufficient lifting effect, surgical eyelid tightening offers the most effective solution.

The Medical Solution

Millimetre Work for the Eye

In upper eyelid tightening (blepharoplasty), we precisely remove excess skin and – if necessary – small fat pads that weigh down the lid. The ultra-fine incision is placed exactly in the natural lid crease.

In lower eyelid tightening, we correct protruding under-eye bags. This is done either via an invisible incision on the inside of the lid (transconjunctival) or directly beneath the lash line, if excess skin also needs to be removed.

Your Advantages

Why an Eyelid Lift at MEDICAL ART?

Natural Result

The eye shape is not changed. You look as before, just fresher and more alert.

Nearly Invisible Scars

By placing the incisions in the natural skin folds, they heal very inconspicuously.

High Expertise

Operations on the eye require extensive experience and a steady hand – our specialist team brings both.

Quick Healing

The procedure is very gentle, so you are usually socially presentable again after just a few days.

Costs and Medical Indication

An eyelid lift for aesthetic reasons is a private service under the GOÄ. However, if there is a severe restriction of the field of vision (medical indication), some insurers may cover the costs proportionally upon prior application.

In a consultation, we clarify whether a medical necessity may exist in your case.

Costs & Reimbursement

Your Investment Framework

The costs depend on the chosen procedure (upper lid, lower lid, or a combination).

  • Before the operation, you receive a binding treatment and cost plan that includes all steps involved.
  • If desired, the treatment costs can be settled in monthly instalments through our billing partner.
Process

The Path to a Radiant Gaze

01

Thorough Consultation

We analyse your eye area, measure the skin excess, and discuss the exact incision lines.

02

The Procedure

The operation is usually performed on an outpatient basis under local anaesthesia (or under twilight sedation if desired) and takes approximately one hour.

03

The Healing Phase

You should cool the eye area well after the procedure. After approximately 5 to 7 days, the fine sutures are removed.

Will I Have Severe Pain Afterwards?

No, an eyelid lift is considered a very low-pain procedure. After the operation, a slight feeling of tightness may occur, which can be well managed with mild cooling. There may be some swelling and small bruises in the first days, which however subside quickly.

Often it is just a few millimetres of skin that make the difference between a tired and a radiant facial expression. An eyelid lift is delicate millimetre work.
