Combinations

Combined procedures

Blepharoplasty is often performed alongside complementary procedures. Combining can be efficient (single recovery, single anaesthesia) — but not every combination is appropriate.

Canthopexy / canthoplasty

Tightening the outer lid corner — often essential support for lower bleph in older or negative-vector patients.

Tear-trough filler or fat grafting

Adding volume below the lid to fill the hollow groove — surgical alternative to repeated filler.

Brow lift

When the heavy upper-lid look is actually brow descent. Brow lift alone or combined with upper bleph.

Rhinoplasty

Combined eyelid and nose surgery in a single procedure — common for facial harmony refinement.

Full face rejuvenation

Blepharoplasty plus facelift and neck — comprehensive facial work for patients in their 60s+.

When combining makes sense — and when it doesn't

Combining tends to make sense when:

  • The recovery for the additional procedure overlaps with blepharoplasty recovery anyway (e.g., adding brow lift adds limited additional downtime)
  • Both procedures address the same complaint (heavy upper region: brow + lid)
  • Anaesthesia and travel costs are meaningful — combining halves both

Combining is questionable when:

  • The combined operating time exceeds 5–6 hours (fatigue risk for surgeon, recovery burden for patient)
  • The added procedure has its own significant recovery (e.g., rhinoplasty + bleph + facelift = a long convalescence)
  • The patient is over 70 or has significant medical comorbidity
