Concern guide
A heavy upper lid can relate to natural eye shape, brow position, ageing skin or an eyelid condition that needs clinical assessment.
Understanding
With hooded eyes, tissue sits over part of the upper-lid crease. This can be a normal inherited feature or become more obvious when the skin and brow lose support with age.
Not every heavy lid is purely cosmetic. New drooping, a marked difference between sides, obstruction of vision or other eye symptoms should be assessed by an optometrist or medical professional before considering aesthetic treatment.
Compare your options
A consultation is the starting point: the most appropriate option depends on what is creating the concern, your goals and your medical history.

A plasma eye lift works specifically on selected points of upper-eyelid skin. Careful screening is required to consider eye anatomy, the amount of skin, healing history and individual risk of pigmentation or scarring.
Why consider itThe Freezing Fat option aimed most directly at mild excess skin over the upper-lid crease.
Before you decide
The skin around the eye is thin and sensitive. Plasma treatment can lead to swelling, pigment alteration, scarring or an unwanted change in lid shape, so practitioner experience and conservative planning are especially important. The result is more limited than surgical blepharoplasty.
Common questions
Natural eye shape, the level of the brow and gradual loss of skin support can each create or increase the fold.
Arrange assessment for sudden or one-sided drooping, visual obstruction, discomfort or other new eye symptoms.
No. Blepharoplasty can remove and reposition tissue, while a plasma procedure offers a smaller non-surgical change.
