When it comes to making a decision about which provider or surgeon to select as your chosen preference for your Blepharoplasty procedure, safety and quality of care are typically the most important considerations to think about, alongside your chosen Clinic and surgeon’s level of experience with Blepharoplasty procedures.

There are three main types of Blepharoplasty. Each takes 60-90 minutes depending on the method employed and you will be under general anaesthesia or sedation.

  • Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty: Removes sagging muscle and excess skin/fat following small incisions being made on the eyelid crease. The eyelid is lifted and skin folds excised 
  • Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty: Removes puffiness under the eye and any excess fat deposits in the under eye area 
  • Upper and Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty: Involves small incisions on both the upper and lower eyelid skin to remove excess skin and fat tissue. 

As blepharoplasty operations are designed to treat drooping skin and muscle laxity, along with age-related changes around the eyes, the procedure requires the expertise and experience of a qualified surgeon. Therefore, talking with a qualified plastic surgeon about bleph cost, your goals, and expectations is essential. The surgeon will be able to evaluate your anatomy and recommend the best course of action.

A Blepharoplasty procedure starts from between £5,000 at the Cadogan Clinic. All quoted Blepharoplasty prices online are guide prices only, and subject to confirmation following your in-person consultation.

Does Blepharoplasty Cost More in London Than in the Rest of the UK?

Blepharoplasty could cost more in London than in the rest of the UK. This is due to several reasons, such as:

  • Availability of surgeon expertise: the more skilled and experienced the surgeon the more expensive the blepharoplasty cost.
  • Cost of living: London is more expensive than other places in th UK. With a high cost of living, it is normal for clinic overhead costs, staff costs and services to cost more. These costs can be reflected in blepharoplasty costs.
  • Greater demand: strong demand for cosmetic procedures including blepharoplasty can mean they cost more in London 

To get a full picture of cost and value, you should also consider any transport and accommodation costs, as well as the quality of the recovery and aftercare package.

Ultimately, whether to have blepharoplasty in London or another part of the UK is a personal decision. It would be best to weigh all aspects before estimating your final eye lift cost. 


Are There Other Factors Which Affect the Cost of Blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty expenses are influenced by the clinic's reputation, experience, and quality of its surgeon and nursing staff, as well as the quality of pre-and post-operative treatment and safety records. Here are some additional significant factors in blepharoplasty cost UK:

  • Procedure complexity: Costs depend on whether it is an upper, lower or combined blepharoplasty. An upper or lower blepharoplasty cost is less as it’s not as complex as addressing both upper and lower eyelids together (double eyelid blepharoplasty)
  • Revision surgery: Correcting prior blepharoplasty requires additional expertise and time, often increasing eye lift surgery costs.
  • Additional costs: Other typical costs include anaesthesia, administered during the procedure, pre-surgical tests and post-operative medication and care, as required
