The cost of blepharoplasty runs from $3,900 for upper or lower eyelid surgery at Nease Cosmetic Surgery. The cost of having both upper and lower eyelids operated on at the same time will vary depending on individual circumstances. Generally speaking, pricing starts on the low end at $3,900, with the high end capping around $6,500+.

Some blepharoplasty operations are done for cosmetic reasons and are considered elective, and most insurance companies will not cover the cost. If your blepharoplasty is done for functional reasons, it’s possible some or all of the cost will be covered by insurance. You’ll want to check with your insurance provider to be sure what they will or will not cover.

At Nease Cosmetic Surgery, we try to keep procedures as affordable for our patients as possible by offering complimentary consultations as well as a variety of payment methods, including cash, major credit cards, and financing through CareCredit®.

In most cases, if you’re a healthy adult, and you understand and agree with the doctor about your expectations, it’s likely you’d be a great candidate for blepharoplasty and will be greatly pleased with your results.

Recovery following blepharoplasty is typically rather short. Swelling and some bruising can be expected but quickly disappears within a few days. Applying cool compresses to the eyes helps to reduce the amount of bruising and swelling. Walking and other light activities also contribute to a speedier recovery.

Generally, you can return to work and other normal activities within about seven to ten days after surgery. After about two weeks, most of the bruising and swelling will have disappeared.
