How does an eyelid correction work?
Common complaints about drooping eyelids
Droopy eyelids often create a tired or older appearance and can make applying makeup difficult. They can also cause physical problems, such as:
- A heavy or tired feeling around the eyes
- Reduced vision due to hanging skin over the eyes
- Trouble wearing glasses
- Difficulty reading
- Tension headache
- Excessively watery eyes
The most common causes are old age and smoking. Heredity or certain medical conditions can also play a role. In addition, frequent UV light (such as tanning bed use) can contribute to sagging skin and excess skin around the eyes.

At Looks Clinics, an upper eyelid correction for both eyes costs €1,450. A lower eyelid correction costs €1,599. If you choose to have both procedures performed at once, the combined rate is €2,595. All prices include aftercare and checkups, so you can be sure you'll receive proper guidance throughout the entire process.
Whether eyelid surgery is covered doesn't depend on the insurer, but on the type of procedure and its medical necessity. Upper eyelid surgery is generally considered cosmetic and therefore not covered. Exceptions can sometimes be made in cases of severe impairment.
However, a lower eyelid correction in which the eyelid turns inward or outward is eligible for reimbursement from basic insurance.
Looks Clinics operates as a non-contracted healthcare provider. This means you pay for your treatment directly with us, usually by debit card, unless other arrangements have been made in advance. You will always receive a clear invoice, which you can submit to your health insurer if desired. The amount of any reimbursement depends on the terms of your policy.
As with any medical procedure, eyelid surgery carries potential risks. At Looks Clinics, you'll be treated by an experienced specialist who works with great care, minimizing the risk of complications. However, side effects can occur, such as temporarily dry or watery eyes. During the consultation, we'll thoroughly discuss all potential risks with you so you know exactly what to expect.
The results of an eyelid correction are generally long-lasting. Because excess skin and fatty tissue are removed, a single treatment is often sufficient to achieve a permanently fresher and younger appearance. Over the years, the skin may show signs of aging again. In rare cases, this may necessitate a second procedure.
No, anesthesia is not required for eyelid surgery at Looks Clinics. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia around the eyes. This means you'll remain awake, won't feel any pain, and can be up and about quickly afterward. Furthermore, you don't need to fast for the procedure.
Most patients find eyelid surgery to be minimally painful. The administration of the local anesthetic can be briefly uncomfortable, but this feeling disappears quickly. After the procedure, you may experience some soreness or a pulling sensation, similar to a mild abrasion. If desired, you can take paracetamol, although this is often unnecessary.
Rest is essential for a successful recovery during the first few days. We recommend avoiding strenuous or strenuous activities for the first 24 hours after the procedure. Most patients plan to take about a week off to recover. The stitches are removed after 6 to 7 days. Over the following months, the scars gradually fade and eventually become barely visible.
