Eye Bag Removal
Feel fresher. Look more like yourself again.
Let’s face it- when your eyes look tired all the time, it can make you feel tired, even when you’re not. Puffy under-eyes, bags, or sagging skin can add years to your face and take away that natural, bright look you once had. If you’ve been covering them up with concealers or trying endless creams without real results, you’re not alone.
At RGIMS, Guwahati, we understand how something as small as under-eye puffiness can affect your confidence. That’s why we offer eye bag surgery, a subtle, safe, and effective way to refresh your appearance without changing who you are.
This isn’t about looking like someone else. It’s about helping you look like you, just more rested, more vibrant, more confident.
What is Eye Bag Removal?
Eye bag surgery, also known as lower eyelid blepharoplasty, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to improve the appearance of the under-eye area. As we age, factors such as genetics, stress, lack of sleep, and natural aging processes cause fat to accumulate or shift beneath the eyes. This leads to visible puffiness, sagging skin, and hollow areas that make the face appear tired or aged.
The surgery involves carefully removing or repositioning excess fat and trimming loose skin from under the eyes. The goal is to reduce puffiness, smooth out hollows, and restore a youthful, refreshed appearance while maintaining your natural look. Unlike more extensive facial surgeries, eye bag surgery is relatively quick and safe, typically lasting between one to two hours.
Performed under local anesthesia with or without light sedation, the procedure ensures patient comfort throughout. Tiny incisions are discreetly placed, either just below the lower lash line or inside the eyelid, leaving scars that are barely noticeable once healed.
Key Benefits of Eye Bag Surgery:
- • Long-lasting, natural-looking results.
- • Minimal discomfort and downtime.
- • Enhanced facial harmony and youthful appearance.
- • Safe procedure with low risk when performed by experienced surgeons.
The best part about eye bag surgery is that the results look natural. People around you will simply notice that you appear more awake, rested, and vibrant, without realizing you underwent surgery. It is a subtle yet effective way to boost your confidence and help you feel more like yourself again.
Our approach is not about changing who you are or making you look like someone else. It is about enhancing your natural beauty so you look rested, vibrant, and confident, the way you remember yourself. The procedure is designed to remove or reposition excess fat and tighten loose skin under the eyes, targeting puffiness and smoothing hollows for a natural, rejuvenated look.

Results Of Treatment
Many people struggle with persistent under-eye puffiness or sagging skin that makes them look tired, even when they feel well-rested. Common concerns we hear from patients include:
- • “I always look tired, even when I’m not.”
- • “People keep asking me if I’m upset or unwell.”
- • “Makeup just isn’t working anymore to hide the bags.”
- • “I don’t recognize myself in photos.”
If any of these sound familiar, you are not alone. Eye bags can be caused by a variety of factors such as aging, stress, genetics, or lack of sleep. In many cases, these bags don’t disappear with home remedies or skincare products, leaving people frustrated and self-conscious.
That is where Eye Bag Surgery (Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty) becomes a practical solution. It offers a gentle, safe, and effective way to reduce under-eye puffiness, tighten loose skin, and restore a naturally refreshed look. It helps people feel more confident and comfortable in their own skin.
Other Reasons for Choosing Eye Bag Surgery:
- • Permanent Solution: Unlike temporary treatments such as creams and fillers, surgery provides long-lasting results.
- • Improved Self-Esteem: Patients often report higher self-confidence and greater satisfaction with their appearance post-surgery.
- • Non-Invasive Alternatives Don’t Work: Many people resort to fillers or laser treatments without achieving the desired effect.
Desire for Natural-Looking Enhancement: The surgery doesn’t dramatically alter your appearance but subtly improves it in a harmonious way.

How the surgery works
Eye bag surgery, or lower eyelid blepharoplasty, is a carefully performed procedure designed to improve the appearance of the under-eye area in a safe and effective way. The process begins with the administration of local anesthesia, sometimes combined with light sedation, to ensure you remain comfortable and relaxed throughout the procedure.
Once you are fully comfortable, tiny incisions are made either just under the lower lashes or inside the eyelid, depending on the approach best suited for your individual needs. These incisions are made with precision to minimize scarring and ensure optimal healing.
Through these discreet incisions, excess fat is either gently removed or repositioned to reduce the appearance of puffiness and restore a balanced, youthful contour beneath the eyes. At the same time, any loose or sagging skin is carefully smoothed out, giving the area a tighter, refreshed look.
After the fat is adjusted and the skin is tightened, fine stitches are used, which are usually so small that they remain barely visible once healing is complete. The procedure typically lasts 1 to 2 hours, and because it is minimally invasive, most patients are able to return home the same day.
This well-structured process ensures a natural, rejuvenated appearance with minimal downtime, helping you look rested and confident without dramatic changes.
Recovery, simply explained
After eye bag surgery, it is normal to experience some mild swelling and bruising around the eyes during the first few days. These effects are a natural part of the healing process and are nothing to worry about. Most patients find that the discomfort is easily managed with basic pain relief prescribed by the surgeon.
Typically, people are able to return to light activities such as reading, working from home, or going for short walks within about 7 days after the procedure. It is important to follow the post-operative care instructions provided by your surgeon to support smooth and speedy healing.
By around 10 to 14 days, most patients feel confident resuming their regular daily routine, including social activities or returning to work, with minimal visible signs of surgery.
Throughout the entire process — from your first consultation to the last follow-up appointment — the RGIMS team is by your side, providing expert care and support to ensure your recovery is safe, comfortable, and successful.
