How Much is an Upper Eyelid Lift?

An upper eyelid lift (blepharoplasty) can be done for both aesthetic reasons and medical purposes. The procedure opens the eyes and provides a well-rested and more youthful appearance. For most patients, upper eyelid surgery is a one-time procedure that lasts a lifetime.

Upper eyelid surgery prices can vary significantly from patient to patient. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the average cost of the procedure was $3,163 in 2018 nationwide. However, some procedures can cost as low as $2,000 and go upwards of $7,000 or more.

What Goes Into the Price of Eyelid Surgery?

Some of the following may be included in your surgeon’s initial cost estimate. However other surgeons may price each item individually. Be sure that you have a good understanding of what will be included in your final bill at the time of your consultation.

Eyelid Surgery Surgeon & Facility Fees

When done correctly by a skilled surgeon, upper eyelid surgery is relatively straightforward. The surgery can be done in as little as 1-2 hours. Upper eyelid lifts are done as an outpatient basis making surgical and facility fees nominal compared to surgeries where an overnight stay is needed.

Eyelid Surgery Anesthesia Costs

Upper eyelid surgery is most commonly done solely with a local anesthetic. Patients who would like the procedure done under general anesthesia can expect to pay slightly more. In the case of general anesthesia, the anesthesiologists will be at your side throughout the procedure to monitor you and keep you comfortable.

Eyelid Surgery Pre & Post-Op Expenses

These costs are typically an out of pocket expense and are not commonly included in your initial quote. Pre-surgical expenses can consist of medical tests and lab work to ensure you’re in good general health with no medical conditions that can complicate your procedure. Post-surgical expenses can be prescription medications and follow-up visits.

Is Upper Eyelid Lift Surgery Covered By Insurance?

In some cases, upper eyelid surgery can be covered fully or partially by your insurance. Patients who have a severe droop on the upper lid that impedes day-to-day activities such as driving may qualify for a functional blepharoplasty. Be sure to speak with your provider beforehand to get a better understanding of what is covered by your specific insurance.

Can an Upper Eyelid Lift be Combined with Other Procedures?

Many patients choose to have upper eyelid surgery done as a stand-alone procedure. However, the surgery can easily be combined with lower eyelid surgery or a brow lift for an additional fee. Pairing surgeries can produce a dramatic anti-aging effect with less time and money compared to having the procedures done separately.

Whether your goals are cosmetic or medical, Specialty Aesthetics can help. Dr. Bruce Moskowitz, an Oculoplastic specialist, routinely performs upper and lower eyelid lifts as well as brow lifting procedures with exceptional results. At the time of your initial consultation, they’ll provide you with a custom treatment plan to suit both your goals and your budget.

Dr. Moskowitz is the best!! He is detailed ortiented and he explained the procedure every step of the way. He was extremely knowledgeable, meticulous and has a great bedside manner. His staff was always receptive to send information and answer any of my concerns. I could not be more pleased with my surgery. I would highly recommend Dr. Moskowitz!!

Maureen de Leon. New York, NY

Sharing my recent experience with Dr. Bruce Moskowitz for anyone who is in search of an Ocular Plastic Surgeon. I am relatively young and this was all new to me, and very scary. I was referred to Dr. Moskowitz by another doctor and I am forever grateful. Not only is his work incredible, meticulous, with amazing results, but he takes the time to explain, make you feel comfortable, and follow up consistently. I still can't believe what he was able to do for me, how he put me back together again. The office is clean and comfortable (with wonderful artwork!) and the office staff is all kind, smart and caring. You never feel like you are just patient with no name. Almost feels like a family-run business (a very high-end business.

LAURA KIRBY. New York, NY

Dr.Mashkevich is the best cosmetic surgeon in New York City! I was looking for a surgeon with years of experience in facelift and neck lifts. I did shop around went to three other surgeons in New York and I didn’t feel confident enough after my consultations. Until I met Dr.Mashkevich! He is extremely patient and if I could I would give him a ten-star review! Dr. Mashkevich and his team made me comfortable and confident with my decision from the beginning to the end of my journey. This decision was one of the best decisions of my life.

Almasa Nabizadia. New York, NY

Don’t have enough positive words to describe my experience with Dr. Mashkevich and his team! The entire staff is absolutely amazing! Dr. Mashkevich was so calm, patient, and knowledgeable! I felt so comfortable moving forward with my decision. It took me a very long time to make this decision and proceed with my facial surgery. I am beyond thrilled and my results are even better than I ever could’ve imagined! I would highly, highly recommend Dr.Mashkevich to anyone considering facial plastic surgery!!!

Rabia BA. New York, NY

My rhinoplasty experience with Dr. Mashkevich has been excellent! He is a superb surgeon who takes wonderful care of his patients. From my initial consultation all the way through surgery and postoperative follow-ups, I have felt comfortable and safe in his hands. Dr. Mashkevich understood exactly what I was looking for and delivered amazing results. His staff is also very pleasant and professional. I am so happy with my results and would greatly recommend Dr. Mashkevich.

Jessica Zizva. New York, NY

Dr. Mashkevich has exceeded my expectations. He’s knowledgeable, professional, and extremely attentive pre and post-operation. I went to several consultations with other surgeons but felt most comfortable with Dr. Mashkevich’s expertise and confidence. I was extremely nervous about the outcome and the recovery - both of which I’m very pleased with. If you’re looking for a natural look then this is the doctor for you. Highly recommend him!!

Angela Kaziyeva. New York, NY

I recently underwent face, neck, and lip lift, as well as a partial rhinoplasty revision, performed by Dr. Mashkevich. I don't know where to begin. Dr. Mashkevich is not only a surgeon but an artist, with the most incredible surgical eye and hands. I had several consultations with plastic surgeons in Manhattan, and from the moment I met Dr. Mashkevich, there was no question that he would be the one to perform my surgery. From the consultation to post-op appointments, he has been the kindest, most caring, and sincere doctor that I could have hoped for. I could not be happier with my decision. I would recommend Dr. Mashkevich to anyone who is looking for not only incredible results but a smooth and comfortable overall surgical experience. Truly the best!!!

Sunny Sani. New York, NY

Saying Dr.Bruce Moskowitz is an expert and master in his field is an understatement. He truly knows his stuff! I am so thankful and grateful I chose Dr.Moskowitz to do my eyelid surgery. For years I went to so many Oculoplastic Surgeons and was so happy to come across Dr.Moskowitz. He is brilliant, knowledgeable, honest, and most importantly all about perfection. I’m so thankful every day, he literally changed my life!

IMRAN Ali. New York, NY

Dr. Moskowitz is by far, one of the best Dr's I have ever met. He is kind, patient, and has a great sense of humor. He explains everything that he is going to and always made sure I felt comfortable. He is also a perfectionist, which made me feel even more confident in his abilities as a plastic surgeon

Kelly Goldstein. New York, NY

There is no one else I would let touch my face besides Dr. Moskowitz. He does such an incredible job and walks you through every part of the procedure and the results are always perfect. I cannot recommend him enough!

Michelle Aselta. New York, NY

In February 2021, I decided to undergo eyes surgery (brow lift and lower blepharoplasty surgery). My friend, who is also a happy patient of Dr. Bruce Moskowitz, recommended him to me and today I know that it was the best choice I could have made. A real expert in his field. Both during the consultation and during the surgery, I felt great under the care of Dr. Moskowitz and his fantastic team. I would also like to thank all the ladies at the reception who are very nice and helpful. I wholeheartedly recommend dr. Bruce Moskowitz and his great team.
