Eye bag removal, also known as eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic procedure aimed at enhancing the appearance of the eyelids.
It involves the removal or repositioning of excess skin, fat, and muscle from the upper and/or lower eyelids.
This procedure is designed to tackle concerns such as drooping upper eyelids, under-eye bags, and sagging skin, which can make you look tired or older than you feel. Eye bag removal can also improve vision by eliminating sagging skin that may obstruct your visual field.

Margaret Removal of eyelid cystI had a small procedure to remove a sebaceous lump from my eye, and the results have been fantastic – it looks like I’ll have no scarring at all. From the initial consultation to the follow-up, everything was handled with professionalism and care. The entire team was welcoming, and the clinic itself had a lovely atmosphere. A great experience overall.
Gillian Removal of eye cystsThe service I received at OCL was outstanding. I had two hard white lumps on my chin and under my eye, which had been misdiagnosed elsewhere. Thankfully, the expert at OCL quickly identified the issue and gently treated it with dissolving injections. The lumps, which had bothered me for so long, disappeared almost instantly. I’m beyond pleased with the results and will absolutely return for any future treatments.
