Alinea Lipo’s Comprehensive Range of Blepharoplasty Surgery Techniques
At Alinea Lipo, our surgeons perform a full range of blepharoplasty procedures designed to correct under-eye bags, excess skin, and eyelid asymmetry. Our surgical options include:
Upper Blepharoplasty
Upper blepharoplasty is recommended for patients with drooping or hooding over the eyes. The procedure removes or repositions excess tissue to refresh the upper lids.
- Addresses sagging or puffiness that causes a tired look
- Lifts hooded eyelids to restore a brighter, more open expression
- May improve peripheral vision by removing drooping skin
Lower Blepharoplasty
Lower blepharoplasty focuses on the under-eye area, where fat deposits and skin laxity can create a tired look. By adjusting fat and refining the skin, it restores balance and youthfulness.
- Targets persistent puffiness or under-eye bags
- Softens shadows and improves hollow areas
- Restores brightness and balance to the face
Double Eyelid Surgery (Asian Blepharoplasty)
Double eyelid surgery creates a defined crease in the upper eyelid, giving the eyes a more open and symmetrical look.
- Especially suited for individuals with monolids or low creases
- Refines the overall eye shape and contour
- Creates a more youthful, alert expression
Transconjunctival Blepharoplasty
By accessing the lower eyelid from the inside, this method allows surgeons to remove or reposition fat without creating an external incision. The result is a smoother under-eye area without visible scarring.
- Well-suited for younger patients with good skin tone who struggle with under-eye bags
- No external incisions required
- Smooths puffiness and enhances the natural contour beneath the eyes
Non-Surgical Blepharoplasty Treatments We Offer
CO₂ Laser Blepharoplasty
By using advanced CO₂ laser technology, this treatment improves lower eyelid skin by removing surface imperfections and boosting collagen. It’s a great non-surgical alternative for firming and smoothing the area
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light)
IPL therapy uses pulses of light energy to reduce pigmentation and brighten the skin around the eyes. It also stimulates collagen production, making it a useful option for early treatment or ongoing maintenance.
Profound® RF (Radiofrequency Microneedling)
Profound® RF combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to gently heat the deeper layers of skin. This stimulates the body’s natural healing response and helps the lower eyelids regain firmness and elasticity.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)
This treatment uses platelet-rich plasma derived from a small sample of your blood to revitalize the delicate skin beneath the eyes. PRP addresses dark circles, uneven tone, and skin laxity by promoting new collagen and healthier tissue.
Recovery & Aftercare Guide Following a Blepharoplasty in NYC
After blepharoplasty, some swelling, bruising, and tightness are expected. These usually peak within 48 hours and improve steadily. Most patients resume light activities within 7 to 10 days. Here are tips on how to support a smooth and safe recovery.
- Apply Cold Compress: Apply a clean, cool compress for the first 24–48 hours to reduce swelling and bruising.
- Keep Your Head Elevated: Sleep with your head raised to limit fluid buildup and support drainage.
- Limit Physical Activity: Avoid strenuous exercise, lifting, or bending for two weeks to prevent swelling.
- Follow the Prescribed Medication: Use prescribed ointments or medications exactly as directed to aid healing.
- Shield Your Eyes: Wear sunglasses outdoors to protect the eyes from sun and wind irritation.

Blepharoplasty Treatment FAQs
How much is blepharoplasty?
The price of blepharoplasty at Alinea Medical Spa generally ranges from $4,000 to $8,000. Costs are influenced by the type of procedure, whether upper, lower, or combined, and by the overall complexity. Fees may also vary if additional aesthetic treatments are included.
What is blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty, commonly known as eyelid surgery, addresses signs of aging such as sagging lids, under-eye puffiness, and drooping skin. By removing or repositioning fat, muscle, and skin, the procedure creates a brighter, more youthful appearance. It can also provide functional improvement by restoring vision when drooping skin obstructs the field of sight.
The procedure may include:
• Refining or removing fat deposits
• Lifting and tightening eyelid structures
• Trimming excess skin or muscle
For the lower eyelids, incisions are generally made on the inside of the eyelid or directly below the lash line. Ideal candidates are patients who are in good general health and free of serious eye conditions.
Does blepharoplasty address all signs of aging around the eyes?
While blepharoplasty can address drooping lids, puffiness, and a tired appearance, it does not treat the following conditions:
• Crow’s feet
• Deep wrinkles
• Facial asymmetry
• Pigmentation-related dark circles
What side effects should I expect after blepharoplasty, and how can I manage them?
Temporary side effects of blepharoplasty may include swelling, bruising, dryness or tearing of the eyes, blurred vision, and mild discomfort. These are expected and generally resolve during the recovery period.
To promote a smooth recovery, carefully follow your aftercare plan, which may involve:
• Apply cold compresses during the first 48 hours to reduce bruising and swelling.
• Use medicated eye drops as directed to relieve dryness.
• Keep your head elevated while resting to prevent fluid retention.
• Limit screen time and other eye-intensive tasks until recovery progresses.
How long is the recovery time after blepharoplasty?
The recovery period varies with each type of eyelid surgery. Upper blepharoplasty typically heals within 7 to 10 days, while lower blepharoplasty requires closer to 2 to 2.5 weeks.
Visible swelling and bruising resolve for most patients within a month. Full results are seen by two months, when activity restrictions are usually lifted.
How long do the results of blepharoplasty last?
Blepharoplasty delivers long-term improvement, with upper eyelid surgery lasting around 5 to 7 years and lower eyelid surgery often permanent. As the face continues to age naturally, some patients choose follow-up procedures to preserve their refreshed appearance.
Who performs blepharoplasty?
Our blepharoplasty procedures are performed by board-certified cosmetic surgeons who specialize in facial rejuvenation. Their approach combines technical precision with a commitment to personalized care, ensuring results that look natural and prioritize patient well-being.
How do I know if I am a good candidate for eyelid surgery?
Blepharoplasty is often ideal for patients with drooping eyelids, under-eye puffiness, or loose skin that creates a fatigued appearance or impairs vision. A consultation with a qualified specialist is the best way to determine suitability, as it allows for a careful evaluation of your eye structure, skin, and goals.
Will blepharoplasty get rid of my eye wrinkles?
Blepharoplasty can soften wrinkles caused by loose or drooping skin on the upper eyelids or beneath the eyes. It does not address dynamic wrinkles such as crow’s feet. To treat those, your surgeon may suggest combining eyelid surgery with Botox or skin resurfacing.
Will insurance cover the cost of blepharoplasty?
Most blepharoplasty procedures are considered cosmetic and are therefore not covered by insurance. If drooping upper eyelids impair vision, insurance may provide coverage when supported by a documented medical exam. Even with documentation, insurance does not extend to procedures performed strictly for cosmetic reasons, such as lower eyelid surgery.
