Blepharospasm is a neurological condition that causes involuntary, forceful spasms of the eyelid muscles, often closing both eyes. It differs from a harmless, common eyelid twitch (myokymia). While there is no outright cure, blepharospasm is highly treatable — botulinum toxin (Botox) injections are the first-line treatment and bring relief to the majority of patients. If […]

Eye bag removal surgery (lower blepharoplasty) removes or repositions the fat and excess skin that create under-eye bags. In London in 2026, it typically costs between £2,700 and £6,000 for the lower lids, with recovery taking around 7–14 days before most people return to work. For the safest results, the procedure is best performed by

Lower blepharoplasty before-and-after results typically show a smoother, less puffy and more rested lower eyelid — under-eye “bags” caused by herniated fat are reduced or repositioned for a natural contour. Results vary by anatomy and are long-lasting. At Eyes Defined in Marylebone, London, the procedure is performed by Consultant Oculoplastic Surgeon Dr Ahmad Aziz at

Hooded eyelids occur when excess upper-eyelid skin folds over the eyelid crease, making the eyes look heavy, tired, or older. The three main causes are genetics, age-related skin laxity (dermatochalasis), and a descending brow. Mild cases may improve with non-surgical options, but when excess skin obstructs vision or non-surgical fixes fall short, upper eyelid surgery

Upper eyelid surgery (upper blepharoplasty) removes excess, hooded skin — and sometimes a little muscle or fat — from the upper lids to create a more open, refreshed, less tired appearance, or to clear sagging skin that blocks your vision. In before-and-after terms, expect noticeable bruising and swelling for the first 1–2 weeks, a presentable

A brow lift is a procedure that raises a heavy, sagging, or drooping brow to refresh the upper face and open up tired-looking eyes. In London, surgical brow lifts typically cost from around £3,800 to £10,000+ depending on the technique, while non-surgical options start at roughly £200–£700. The right choice depends on your anatomy —

Botox typically lasts 3 to 4 months, with full results visible around 10–14 days after treatment. How long it lasts for you depends on your metabolism, muscle strength, dosage, and — most importantly — the skill of the injector. At a doctor-led London clinic, precise placement helps results look more natural and last longer. If

Ectropion is when the lower eyelid turns outward, away from the eye; entropion is when it turns inward, so the lashes rub the eyeball. Both are usually caused by age-related eyelid laxity and can lead to watering, irritation and, if untreated, corneal damage. Both are highly treatable — most often with a short, day-case surgery

Canthoplasty (a “cat eye lift”) is a specialist eyelid procedure that reshapes the outer corner of the eye to create a lifted, almond contour. In London it typically costs £3,000–£6,000, takes 60–90 minutes as a day case, and has a 2–3 week initial recovery. Because it alters the structure of the eye itself, it is

Almond eye surgery — known medically as canthoplasty — is a precision procedure that reshapes the outer corner of the eye (the lateral canthus) to create a lifted, elegant, almond-shaped contour. At Eyes Defined in Marylebone, London, it is performed by Consultant Ophthalmologist and Oculoplastic Surgeon Dr Ahmad Aziz, usually under local anaesthesia as a
