The Philosophy
“The eyes are the undeniable focal point of human connection; we remove the weight of age, restoring a bright, impeccably vibrant gaze.”
Dr Hassan
Dr. Hassan Soueid Lead Surgeon

Few areas of the face exhibit the harsh realities of aging more prominently than the delicate peri-orbital region. On the upper eyelids, redundant skin can heavily curtain the lash line, projecting chronic fatigue and even obstructing vision. On the lower eyelids, weakened orbital septums allow deep fat pads to bulge forward, creating severe, permanent 'bags'. Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty at Kensington Cosmetic Clinic surgically excises these burdens, acting as the absolute gold standard for eye rejuvenation.

Upper Blepharoplasty is a masterclass in millimetric precision. Dr. Hassan places a microscopic incision squarely within the natural eyelid crease, removing the exact swath of excess skin required to expose a crisp, youthful platform for makeup without altering the eye's fundamental shape. For the Lower Blepharoplasty, an incredibly refined 'transconjunctival' approach (an incision hidden entirely inside the lower lid) is frequently utilized to extract or reposition the bulging fat pads, leaving utterly zero external scars.

Bespoke Synergy

Upper & Lower Detail

The transformation is widely considered the most 'high-yield' procedure in cosmetic surgery—offering a massively profound improvement in facial vitality for a relatively swift recovery. When severe hollows accompany the fat bags, Dr. Hassan brilliantly complements the surgery with Fat Injection beneath the eyes, guaranteeing an flawlessly smooth, bright contour.

Step by Step

Your Patient Journey

01 / The Consultation

Ocular Evaluation

A rigorous anatomical examination of skin excess versus brow descent. Dr. Hassan ensures your 'hooding' is truly excess eyelid skin and not strictly a descended eyebrow, guaranteeing the correct surgical path.

02 / Preparation

Precise Mapping

While seated upright, exact, incredibly precise surgical markings are drawn on the upper lids. Highly specialized ocular numbing drops and local anesthetics assure serene, pain-free surgery.

03 / The Procedure

Micro-Excision

The heavy upper skin and tiny pockets of inner fat are meticulously removed. Lower fat bags are carefully teased out or smoothly repositioned over the cheekbone to brilliantly eradicate shadows.

04 / Recovery & Aftercare

The Cool Compress

Swelling and vibrant bruising are highly expected. Strict adherence to cold compresses for 48 hours is mandatory. The hair-thin upper lid sutures are painlessly removed at day 5 to 7.

Frequently
Asked
Questions

Ask a specific question
When performed masterfully, no. The goal of Kensington Cosmetic Clinic is to restore your eyes to how they looked 10 to 15 years ago, never to alter your inherent ethnic or anatomical eye shape.
Upper eyelid scars are hidden perfectly within the natural crease of the eye when open, and fade into imperceptible pale lines when closed. Lower lid surgery frequently utilizes an internal incision, leaving absolutely zero external scar.
Neuromodulators can lift the brow incredibly slightly (1-2mm). However, if you possess actual, physical loose folds of heavy skin resting on your eyelashes, surgery is unequivocally the only remedy.
You must strictly avoid all eye makeup, especially mascara and eyeliner, for 10 to 14 days to prevent any micro-particles from entering the healing, ultra-fine incisions.
