Address hooded, puffy, or tired-looking eyes with eyelid surgery in Lahore — performed by Dr. Farhan Gohar, a Consultant Plastic, Reconstructive, and Cleft Surgeon with 15+ years of experience in safe, natural-looking facial surgery.
Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes or repositions excess skin, muscle, and fat around the upper and/or lower eyelids to correct hooding, puffiness, or under-eye bags, and to create a more open, rested appearance to the eyes. In some patients, upper eyelid hooding is significant enough to affect vision, in which case surgery also has a functional purpose.
It’s important to understand what eyelid surgery is not: it is not a treatment for crow’s feet or forehead wrinkles on its own, and it does not lift the eyebrow itself. It works best as a targeted correction for excess or lax eyelid skin and fat, and may be combined with a brow lift when eyebrow position is also a concern.
At Azar Plast, eyelid surgery in Lahore is performed by Dr. Farhan Gohar, a Consultant Plastic, Reconstructive, and Cleft Surgeon with over 15 years of surgical experience. Every treatment plan starts with an in-person consultation and assessment of your eyelid skin, fat distribution, eyebrow position, and goals, because the right technique and extent of correction differ from patient to patient. The focus throughout is on surgical safety, precision, and eyes that look naturally more rested rather than an obviously “operated on” look.
Depending on your eyelid anatomy, goals, and consultation findings, eyelid surgery can be performed using different approaches:
Addresses under-eye bags and excess skin through an incision just below the lash line or inside the lower eyelid, depending on whether skin, fat, or both need correcting.
A small incision is added across the columella (the strip of tissue between the nostrils), giving the surgeon a fuller view of the nasal structure. Often used for more complex reshaping or revision cases.
Eyelid surgery is frequently paired with a brow lift or other facial rejuvenation procedures for patients with concerns beyond the eyelids themselves.
Your surgeon will recommend the right technique for your case at your consultation — not every technique suits every patient or eyelid.
Your surgeon evaluates your eyelid skin, fat pads, and eyebrow position, discusses your goals, reviews your medical history, and plans the most suitable approach.
Local anesthesia with sedation is typically used, keeping you comfortable throughout; general anesthesia may be used if combined with other procedures.
Incisions are placed along the natural eyelid crease or just below the lash line, chosen to keep resulting scars as inconspicuous as possible.
Excess skin is removed and fat is removed or repositioned as planned, correcting hooding, puffiness, or under-eye bags.
Incisions are closed with fine sutures suited to the thin eyelid skin, supporting a well-concealed healing scar.
When performed by a qualified, experienced surgeon in an appropriate surgical facility, eyelid surgery is a well-established and generally safe procedure. Like any surgery, it carries risks — swelling, bruising, dry or watery eyes, temporary blurred vision, or asymmetry — which is why proper patient selection and surgical planning matter more than the marketing claims of any single technique.
A safety principle worth knowing as you research: removing too much skin or fat from the eyelids can lead to complications like difficulty closing the eye fully, which is why conservative, individualized planning matters more here than an aggressive “maximum correction” approach. This is something Dr. Farhan Gohar will assess and explain clearly for your specific case.
Most patients experience mild discomfort rather than significant pain, managed with prescribed medication or cold compresses in the first few days. Swelling, tightness, and bruising around the eyes are normal and typically ease significantly within one to two weeks. Because local anesthesia numbs the treatment area, discomfort is mainly a recovery-phase experience, not a during-surgery one.
Good candidates typically:
The only reliable way to confirm candidacy is an in-person consultation.
Recovery after eyelid surgery varies from person to person. Here's a general guide to what you may expect during the healing process.
Rest with the head elevated, use cold compresses as instructed; swelling and bruising around the eyes are normal.
Sutures are typically removed, and visible bruising continues to fade.
Most patients feel comfortable returning to work and light daily activities, often with the help of concealer for any remaining bruising.
Final results settle in fully as residual swelling resolves and the scar continues to soften.
Recovery time varies by patient and by whether upper, lower, or both eyelids were treated.
Results vary based on your starting anatomy, skin elasticity, the areas treated, and how closely post-op instructions are followed.
Eyelid surgery cost in Pakistan is not a single fixed number — it depends on:
are treated
need correction
local/sedation is generally less costly than general anesthesia
such as a brow lift
As a general market reference, eyelid surgery cost in Pakistan commonly falls in a broad range depending on how many eyelids are treated and the extent of correction, with single upper-eyelid surgery typically at the lower end and combined upper-and-lower or four-eyelid surgery running higher. These figures are general market context, not a quote — your actual eyelid surgery cost in Lahore can only be confirmed after Dr. Farhan Gohar assesses your eyelids and goals in person.
