DR. MAYR TO ARRANGE AN APPOINTMENT

When does an upper eyelid lift make sense?
- For sagging skin in the upper eyelid area (drooping eyelids)
- If the field of vision is restricted
- For a tired, fatigued appearance despite well-rested eyes
- If irritation, inflammation or perspiration builds up in the eyelid crease
- For aesthetic rejuvenation of the upper part of the face
This is how an upper eyelid lift works
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia or general anesthesia – on an outpatient basis, pain-free and precise. The fine incision is made in the natural crease of the eyelid and is positioned in a way that the subsequent scar remains almost invisible. Excess skin and, if necessary, fatty tissue are removed or reshaped.
The operation takes about 45 minutes and both sides are adjusted symmetrically.
If required, the upper eyelid lift can be combined with an eyebrow lift.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Is the operation painful?
Thanks to local anesthesia or general anesthesia, the procedure is painless. A slight feeling of tension in the first few days is normal, but is easily tolerated.
How long does the result last?
Usually over many years – depending on skin type, lifestyle and predisposition.
Are there any visible scars?
The incision runs exactly in the eyelid crease and is usually barely visible or not visible at all later on.
Will part of the costs be covered?
If the drooping eyelids significantly restrict the field of vision and there is a medical indication, partial cost coverage can be applied for from the compulsory insurance before the operation.
