Eyelid Surgery in Winnipeg

Most patients are pleasantly surprised by how quick and manageable the recovery is. You can expect mild bruising and swelling for the first 1 to 2 weeks. Most patients feel comfortable returning to work and normal social activities within 7 to 10 days, though you should avoid strenuous exercise and heavy lifting for about 3 to 4 weeks.

Your eyelid surgery will be a customized procedure personalized to your facial anatomy—and depends on whether you are addressing the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both—the cost naturally varies from patient to patient. In general, the investment for Eyelid Surgery starts at $4,000+.

During your one-on-one consultation, Dr. Brichacek will carefully evaluate your unique surgical needs and provide you with a detailed quote. To give you plenty of time to confidently make your decision, your custom quote will remain valid for 3 months from the date it is printed.

Investing in Your Eyes
When it comes to delicate facial procedures, the surgeon you choose is the single most important determining factor in the results you will achieve. Board Certified Plastic Surgeons price their procedures based on their advanced anatomical expertise, meticulous technical skill, and the exceptional standard of care they provide.

While it can be tempting to shop around for the lowest price, seeking eyelid surgery based on a bargain often leads to undesirable, unnatural, or "hollowed-out" results. Ask anyone who has had to undergo revision surgery: correcting a poorly executed procedure around the eyes is incredibly complex, stressful, and far more expensive in the long run. True peace of mind comes from knowing your eyes are in expert hands, and your surgery will be done beautifully, safely, and correctly the first time.

Our Board Certified Plastic Surgeons use advanced, meticulous surgical techniques to ensure scarring is virtually invisible once healed.

Upper Eyelids: The incision is hidden directly within the natural crease of your eye.

Lower Eyelids: The incision is placed either just beneath the lower lash line or entirely inside the lower eyelid (a transconjunctival approach), leaving no visible external scar.

You are a candidate if you are in good overall health, do not smoke, and have realistic expectations. Ideal candidates typically want to address:

• Drooping, hooded upper eyelids that make them look tired.

• Puffy "bags" under the eyes.

• Excess, crepey skin around the eyes.

• Impaired peripheral vision caused by sagging upper eyelid skin.

Eyelid Surgery is a safe and effective surgery, with minimal complications.

During your consultation, your Board Certified Facial Surgeon and his expert medical team will clearly outline all of the necessary precautions you need to take, as well as any postoperative limitations you should follow.

Your surgeon and his team of medical experts will take every necessary precaution to minimize any risks involved with your surgery.
