An upper eyelid lift is one of the most rejuvenating procedures to perform on the face. The procedure is designed to remove excess skin from the upper eyelids that may be interfering with vision, driving or reading and may be resulting in headaches at the end of the day. It can be performed under a general anaesthetic or with local anaesthetic in our rooms. Patients usually require 1-2 weeks off work to recover from the bruising and swelling around the eyes.
