How it works

How patients from Dubai are seen

1 — The consultation

Patients travelling from Dubai are seen at Elyzee Hospital in Abu Dhabi, where all consultations and surgery take place. The visit is unhurried and private: your examination, whether you need upper, lower or combined blepharoplasty, and the honest trade-offs are covered in the same appointment. Consultations are held in English, Portuguese or Spanish.

2 — Surgery at Elyzee Hospital, Abu Dhabi

Where possible, the surgical date, pre-operative tests and the anaesthesia review are arranged around a single additional trip rather than several separate journeys. Procedures are performed under the highest safety standards in premium, fully accredited hospital facilities, with board-certified anaesthesiologists.

3 — Recovery and follow-up

Sutures are usually removed between 3 and 7 days after surgery, and review appointments are scheduled together where possible to keep the number of journeys down. The emirate you live in changes the logistics — never the clinical plan.

Questions, answered

Blepharoplasty in Dubai — your questions

What is blepharoplasty?+

Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) removes excess skin and fat pockets from the upper or lower eyelids to correct sagging, puffiness and a tired look — in some cases even improving the field of vision. Dr. Paulo Michels performs upper, lower and scarless (transconjunctival) blepharoplasty, restoring a rested, natural gaze.

Do you see blepharoplasty patients from Dubai?+

Yes. Patients travelling from Dubai and across the UAE are seen at Elyzee Hospital in Abu Dhabi, where all consultations and surgery take place. Where possible the consultation, pre-operative tests, surgical date and follow-up reviews are scheduled to minimise the number of journeys.

Can blepharoplasty be done without visible scars?+

Yes, in selected cases. Lower-eyelid surgery can be performed through the inside of the eyelid (the transconjunctival approach), leaving no external scar. For upper eyelids, the incision is hidden in the natural eyelid crease, where it becomes practically imperceptible once healed. The right approach depends on whether skin, fat or both need to be addressed — confirmed at the consultation.

How long do blepharoplasty results last?+

Results can last between 10 and 15 years, depending on lifestyle, skin type, genetics and post-operative care. Because ageing continues naturally, some patients consider touch-up treatments after several years; complementary non-surgical treatments can help maintain the result longer.

How much does blepharoplasty cost for patients from Dubai?+

The investment is the same wherever you travel from: it depends on whether the upper eyelids, lower eyelids or both are treated, the technique used and the operating time. A transparent, all-inclusive quote — covering surgical expertise, anaesthesia, hospital costs, medications and follow-up — is provided after your consultation at Elyzee Hospital.
