Upper Eyelid Lift

Lift Your Lids. Brighten Your Look.

What is Upper Eyelid Lift?

Struggling with droopy eyelids, sagging skin, or a tired appearance even when you feel wide awake? At Skin Works Medical Spa in Torrance, we offer upper eyelid lift performed safely in-office by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Shana Kalaria. This refined, short procedure removes excess eyelid skin and redefines your eye contour—so you look more refreshed, alert, and naturally youthful without looking “done.”

 

TORRANCE UPPER EYELID LIFT PROCEDURE

This procedure addresses hooded or sagging upper lids by removing stretched skin and tightening the underlying tissue. It restores your natural eyelid crease and opens the eyes, helping with both cosmetic appearance and, in many cases, visual field obstruction. Unlike invasive hospital surgery, your upper eyelid lift at Skin Works is performed in a discreet, comfortable medical spa setting right here in Torrance.

 

WHO IS IT FOR?

We see patients of all ages from Redondo Beach to Palos Verdes and beyond. Whether you’re dealing with age-related sagging or genetic hooding that’s been present since your 20s, upper eyelid lift can be life-changing, functionally and aesthetically.

You’re likely a good candidate if you have:

  • ✅ Sagging upper eyelids making you look tired or angry
  • ✅ Hooded eyes that interfere with your vision
  • ✅ Asymmetry or excess eyelid skin from genetics or aging
  • ✅ Ptosis (a drooping eyelid muscle) that causes heaviness or eye strain

WHAT MAKES OUR APPROACH DIFFERENT?

Unlike traditional plastic surgery clinics, our procedure is done in-office at our Torrance facility, no hospital required. Dr. Kalaria brings her surgical precision into a private, welcoming environment where you’re seen as a person, not a chart.

What you can expect:

  • ✅ Local anesthesia with optional light sedation
  • ✅ No general anesthesia, no hospital gown, no long waitlists
  • ✅ Hidden incisions within the eyelid crease, virtually invisible after healing
  • ✅ Personalized attention and post-op support at every step

EYELID LIFT RECOVERY TIMELINE

Recovery is typically quick and manageable. Most patients return to light activities within a few days and resume work within 7–10 days.

Here’s a week-by-week guide:

  • 🔹 Day 1 to 3: Swelling and bruising are normal; rest and cool compresses help
  • 🔹 Day 4 to 6: Stitches removed if non-absorbable; most patients feel socially presentable
  • 🔹 Week 1 to 2: Swelling fades; makeup allowed; light exercise resumes
  • 🔹 Month 1 to 2: Final results become fully visible; incisions virtually disappear

WHAT RESULTS CAN YOU EXPECT?

Results are subtle, natural, and tailored to your unique anatomy. Most patients report:

  • ✅ A younger, brighter look without changing the shape of their eyes
  • ✅ Improved vision and relief from eyelid heaviness
  • ✅ Easier makeup application and visible upper lids

Unlike injectables, results from upper blepharoplasty can last 8 to 12 years or more, depending on age and skin condition.

 

UPPER EYELID LIFT COST & PAYMENT OPTIONS

Our pricing is simple and transparent. Most patients in South Bay cities like Torrance, Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach, Carson, and Long Beach pay around $3,200. Pricing includes:

  • ✅ Your consultation with Dr. Kalaria
  • ✅ Surgical procedure performed on-site
  • ✅ Local anesthesia (no hospital fees)
  • ✅ Follow-up visits and recovery guidance

Total cost ranges from $3,000 to $4,000, with 0% financing available through CareCredit, Affirm, and in-house options.

 

OPTIONAL ADD-ONS

Many patients choose to combine their upper eyelid lift with:

  • ✨ Botox brow lift (non-surgical lift)
  • ✨ Under-eye filler for hollowing
  • ✨ CO2 laser resurfacing to reduce fine lines around the eyes

These can often be done on the same day or during healing for a smoother full-eye transformation.

 

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Will this help my vision?

Yes. If sagging skin interferes with your upper visual field, this procedure can restore it, often dramatically.

Is it painful?

Most patients describe it as mild pressure. Discomfort is easily managed with Tylenol or ibuprofen.

How long until I can be seen socially?

By day 5 to 7, most bruising and swelling fade enough to wear makeup and return to normal outings.

Can younger people get it?

Absolutely. If you have naturally heavy eyelids, early ptosis, or asymmetry, blepharoplasty can be beneficial even in your 20s or 30s.
