Dr. Karan Ratna Pradhan

Plastic & Cosmetic Surgeon

MBBS, MS - General Surgery

Personalised care, natural-looking results

Who Is a Good Candidate

  • ✓Adults with sagging or hooded upper eyelids affecting appearance (or vision, in some cases)
  • ✓Under-eye puffiness or bags from excess fat/skin
  • ✓Good general eye health with no uncontrolled thyroid eye disease
  • ✓Non-smokers or willingness to pause smoking around surgery

Procedure Details

Typically performed under local anesthesia with or without light sedation, occasionally general anesthesia for combined/extensive cases. Incisions follow the natural eyelid crease (upper lid) or just below the lash line/inner eyelid surface (lower lid) to remove or reposition excess skin, muscle and fat. Duration is usually 1-2 hours depending on whether one or both lids are treated.

Recovery Timeline

  1. Day 1-4 Swelling, bruising and tightness are expected; cold compresses and head elevation help.
  2. Day 5-7 Sutures (if non-dissolving) are removed; most bruising fades.
  3. Week 2 Able to return to work and wear light makeup to camouflage any residual bruising.
  4. Week 3-6 Swelling continues to settle gradually; scars fade further into the natural crease.

Risks & Complications

As with any procedure, individual risk depends on your health history and will be discussed fully during consultation.

  • !Dry or irritated eyes, temporarily
  • !Asymmetry between the two sides
  • !Difficulty fully closing the eyes (rare, usually temporary)
  • !Infection or bleeding
  • !Visible scarring
  • !Change in eyelid position (ectropion) in rare cases

Dr. Karan Ratna Pradhan's Approach

Dr. Pradhan's practice is built on the principle that plastic and reconstructive surgery should look natural, not "done." Every consultation starts with listening to what you want to change and why, followed by an honest discussion of what this procedure can and can't achieve for your specific anatomy, with techniques adapted case-by-case.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does swelling last after eyelid surgery?
Most visible swelling settles within 2-3 weeks, with subtle final settling over a few months.
Will there be visible scars?
Incisions are placed in the natural eyelid crease or inner eyelid surface, so scarring is typically well concealed.
Can eyelid surgery improve my vision?
If heavy, sagging upper eyelid skin is obstructing your peripheral vision, removing it can meaningfully improve visual field - this is assessed during consultation.
At what age do people usually consider this?
Most commonly from the mid-30s onward, though genetics can bring some people in earlier for under-eye bags.
