Detailed Cost Breakdown for Blepharoplasty
Upper Blepharoplasty
Removes excess skin and fat from the upper lids to open up hooded, tired-looking eyes. The most common eyelid procedure.
Lower Blepharoplasty
Tackles under-eye bags, puffiness and fine wrinkles for a more rested appearance.
Transconjunctival Blepharoplasty
Removes lower-eyelid fat through an incision inside the lid, leaving no visible scar.
Transcutaneous Blepharoplasty
Removes both skin and fat from the lower lid through a fine external incision hidden beneath the lashes.
Asian Blepharoplasty (Double Eyelid)
Creates or defines a natural upper-lid crease, tailored to preserve your features.
Pinch Blepharoplasty
Removes a small pinch of excess lower-lid skin without disturbing the muscle — a minimal option for fine, crepey skin.
Fat Repositioning Blepharoplasty
Repositions existing under-eye fat to fill hollows and smooth the lid-cheek junction, rather than simply removing it.

Why is the Blepharoplasty More Affordable in Turkey?
Many UK patients researching eyelid surgery abroad see a £1,500 price and wonder what’s missing. Nothing is. The saving is economic — a favourable exchange rate, lower overheads and bundled logistics — with the surgery led by a consultant in a JCI-accredited hospital using CE-marked materials.
The comparison is rarely like-for-like, either. A UK quote usually lists the surgeon’s fee, then adds the anaesthetist, theatre and follow-ups, which is how a £2,500 headline climbs higher. Our price folds it all into one all-inclusive figure, fixed before you travel.
The eyes are unforgiving, so blepharoplasty is about restraint, not just removal. Take too much skin or fat and the eyes look hollow or pulled; that’s why we plan around your anatomy — often repositioning fat rather than removing it — to keep you looking rested, not operated on. It’s our “rejuvenation, not alteration” approach. Upper lids can usually be done under local anaesthetic with a quick recovery, and our aftercare follows you home to the UK rather than ending at the airport.

Frequently Asked Questions About Blepharoplasty
How much does blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) cost in Turkey?
At AKM Clinic it starts at £1,300, with an upper eyelid lift from £1,500 and lower from £2,100. Privately in the UK eyelid surgery typically runs £2,500–£6,000.
What's the difference between upper and lower blepharoplasty?
Upper surgery removes hooded excess skin from the top lid; lower surgery addresses under-eye bags and puffiness. Many patients have both.
Will eyelid surgery leave visible scars?
Upper scars sit hidden in the natural crease. When the lower lid only needs fat removed, it can be done scarlessly from inside the lid (transconjunctival).
Can blepharoplasty be done under local anaesthetic?
Yes — upper eyelid surgery in particular is often performed awake under local, with a quick recovery of around one to two weeks.
Eyelid surgery is sometimes on the NHS — why go private or abroad?
The NHS only funds upper-lid surgery when excess skin obstructs your vision. Cosmetic eye-bag or hooded-lid surgery is private, which is where comparing the cost makes sense.
