What is Blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty is a cosmetic eyelid surgery that corrects drooping upper eyelids and puffy lower lids. It involves removing or repositioning excess skin, muscle, and fat to improve eyelid function and aesthetics. Also known as an eyelid lift procedure, it can be performed on upper lids, lower lids, or both, and contributes significantly to facial rejuvenation.
Common Indications
- Heavy or sagging eyelids that restrict vision or create a fatigued appearance
- Persistent under‑eye bags or puffiness resistant to rest or skincare
- Excess eyelid skin interfering with makeup application or eyelid function
- Desire for brighter, more youthful eye appearance and enhanced facial harmony
Techniques Used
- Dr. Saxena employs meticulous incisions along natural eyelid folds for minimal scarring
- Advanced fat repositioning and muscle tightening ensure natural contours
- Options include transconjunctival lower eyelid surgery to avoid external scars
- Use of precise, minimally invasive tools under magnification for optimal results
About the Surgery/Treatment
Blepharoplasty is an outpatient eyelid rejuvenation surgery lasting about 60–90 minutes. It improves eyelid structure while preserving or restoring full eye function.
Treatment Process
- Personalized assessment of eyelid anatomy and aesthetic goals
- Local or general anesthesia followed by fine incisions in eyelid creases
- Excess skin, muscle, and fat removed or repositioned with surgical precision
- Incisions are closed with fine sutures and recovery guidance is initiated
Benefits of this Surgery
- Improves peripheral vision by eliminating droopy eyelid skin
- Enhances symmetry and youthful eye appearance
- Minimally invasive with rapid recovery and long-lasting outcomes
- Elevates confidence with refreshed, natural-looking eyes
Blepharoplasty ranks among the top facial rejuvenation procedures at Saxena Aesthetics. With Dr. Saxena’s precision and eye for aesthetics, patients enjoy results that are refreshed without appearing overdone.

Lakshaami Shetty2025-04-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dear Doctor, Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your care and kindness during such a scary time. When the slab suddenly fell on us while we were sleeping on the floor at midnight, I was terrified. But your calm words, gentle approach, and encouragement made me feel safe and hopeful. You not only treated my injuries—you healed my fear too. I will always recommend you, not just for your skill, but for the compassion you show.

Dr. Bharat Saxena is exceptionally passionate about his work, approaching it with the dedication of someone who truly worships his profession. Meeting him changed my perspective on how compassionate and humble a doctor can be, especially in a country like India, where human life often isn’t valued as it should be. In these times, Dr. Saxena stands out, treating his patients with the utmost respect, care, and compassion. I am profoundly grateful to Dr. Saxena for the way he treated my father during his mouth cancer surgery. He assured us that my father’s face would look flawless after the procedure, and true to his word, no one can tell that he underwent surgery. My entire family is indebted to his care and professionalism. We wish him all the best in his future endeavors and pray that his passion for his work continues to shine. Thank you, Doctor Saxena 🙏 Akshat2024-09-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
