Eyelid lift (blepharoplasty)

Give your eyes new expressiveness with a blepharoplasty - for a fresh and youthful look. Blepharoplasty, also known as an eyelid lift, is a plastic surgery procedure in which drooping eyelids and bags under the eyes are corrected. In the case of deep-set eyebrows, this procedure can be combined with a direct brow lift if necessary. Your specialist for upper eyelid lifting is Dr Tatjana Lanaras, while Dr Sophia Kaiser specialises in lower eyelid correction and combination procedures in the eyelid area.

Treatment FAQ Prices

As part of the natural ageing process, the elasticity and resilience of the eyelid skin decreases, which is noticeable on the upper eyelid in the form of drooping eyelids. The forehead skin is also subject to this loss of elasticity and the eyebrows can droop, which further emphasises the drooping eyelids. As a result of the ageing process, the fatty tissue surrounding the eyeball can protrude on the lower eyelid, causing bags under the eyes. This can make the eyes appear tired, sad and old. An eyelid lift can help to restore a fresh and youthful appearance.

During an eyelid lift, the excess eyelid skin and, if necessary, additional protruding fat pads and some of the muscle tissue are removed.

Can I do sport after the operation?

You must not do any sport for four to six weeks and should refrain from excessive exertion, massages and full baths for this period. However, normal exercise is important immediately after the operation and protects against thrombosis.

Initial medical consultation

If you are not sure which aesthetic treatments are best suited to your individual needs, we recommend a no-obligation consultation with one of our dermatologists. The consultation costs CHF 100 and takes about 20 minutes. This amount will be deducted from the cost of your aesthetic treatment. The consultation costs and aesthetic services must be paid directly on site after the procedure. In order to be able to assess your facial skin in the best possible way, please come to the aesthetic consultation without make-up.

Our consultations

Invoice & installment payment

The following payment conditions apply to so-called self-pay services, which are not covered by TARMED and are therefore not covered by health insurance: 30 days total amount, or the option to make partial payments of your choice with attractive interest rates (minimum payment 5% of the outstanding amount per month). In case of insufficient creditworthiness, no invoice can be issued and the amount is due immediately after the treatment on site. If necessary, creditworthiness can be clarified in advance.

Cancellation of appointment

Appointments that have already been made can be canceled free of charge up to 24 hours before the appointment. Please inform us by phone, email, Whatsapp or a voice message on the answering machine. To cancel an appointment booked online, use the cancel button in the confirmation email. If an appointment is canceled less than 24 hours before the appointment or not canceled at all (no-show), the patient is liable for compensation. If a treatment can no longer be carried out due to a patient delay, the obligation to pay compensation also applies.
