Why Choose Dr. Charbel Medawar for Blepharoplasty in Lebanon?
Blepharoplasty is one of the most delicate procedures in facial surgery. The eyelid skin is the thinnest in the body. The margin between an exact, beautiful result and an overcorrected one — difficulty closing the eye, lagophthalmos, or an unnatural appearance — is measured in millimetres. The choice of surgeon matters enormously here, far more than for many other procedures. Dr. Charbel Medawar’s specific credentials in this field are what set him apart.
AAFPRS Fellowship With Oculoplastics Focus — Rare in Lebanon
Oculoplastics is the subspecialty of facial plastic surgery focused on the eyelids, brow, and periorbital area. Dr. Medawar’s 18-month AAFPRS-accredited fellowship in the United States included a major focus on oculoplastic surgery — blepharoplasty, canthopexy, brow lifting, and periorbital rejuvenation. Very few surgeons practising blepharoplasty in Lebanon hold this level of dedicated, internationally accredited training in the specific zone around the eye.
| Criterion | Typical Practice in Lebanon | Dr. Charbel Medawar |
|---|---|---|
| Oculoplastics training | General plastic or cosmetic surgery training | AAFPRS fellowship with oculoplastics focus — USA |
| ENT foundation | Cosmetic training only in most cases | Full ENT residency — deep head and neck anatomy knowledge |
| Pricing transparency | Quote only after in-person visit | All-inclusive fixed price published: $750 |
| Google patient rating | Varies | 5.0 / 5.0 from 26 verified reviews |
| Virtual consultation | Not commonly offered | WhatsApp / video call for all international patients |
Blepharoplasty in Lebanon for Lebanese Living Abroad
Upper blepharoplasty is one of the most practical procedures to have during a visit to Beirut from abroad. Recovery is faster than most facial surgeries — sutures are removed at Day 7 and most patients are presentable in public (with light concealer) by the end of the first week. A stay of 7–10 days in Beirut is sufficient.

There are no additional charges at any stage.
Is blepharoplasty in Lebanon much cheaper than in France or Australia?
Yes, significantly. Upper blepharoplasty costs €3,000–€6,000 in France, AUD 4,500–10,000 in Australia, and $3,500–$8,000 in the United States. In Lebanon with Dr. Charbel Medawar, the same procedure costs $750 USD all-inclusive — a saving of 75 to 90 percent — performed by an AAFPRS-trained oculoplastics specialist with an international fellowship.
Is blepharoplasty painful in Lebanon?
No. Upper blepharoplasty with Dr. Charbel Medawar is performed under local anaesthesia — the eyelid area is completely numbed before any incision is made. Patients feel no pain during the procedure. Post-operatively, mild tightness and sensitivity are expected for the first 2–3 days, managed easily with prescribed pain relief. The recovery discomfort is considerably less than most other facial surgical procedures.
Can I have blepharoplasty in Lebanon if I’m visiting from abroad?
Yes. Upper blepharoplasty has one of the most practical recovery timelines of any facial surgical procedure for international patients. A stay of 7–10 days in Beirut covers the procedure, the post-operative recovery, suture removal, and a final pre-departure check with Dr. Medawar. Book your consultation in advance via WhatsApp (+961 70 610469) or the contact form.
What is the difference between upper and lower blepharoplasty?
Upper blepharoplasty removes excess skin from the upper eyelid to create a more open, alert appearance. The incision is hidden in the natural eyelid crease and is invisible once healed. Lower blepharoplasty addresses under-eye bags, excess lower eyelid skin, and fat herniation — typically a more complex procedure involving fat repositioning and sometimes canthopexy. Dr. Medawar performs both and will advise on the most appropriate approach during your consultation.
Can I combine blepharoplasty with other procedures in the same visit?
Yes. Many patients combine upper blepharoplasty with a lateral brow lift, lower canthopexy, Botox, or lip fillers during the same visit. For the full fox eye combination of lateral brow lift + upper blepharoplasty + lower canthopexy in one session, see the dedicated Fox Eye Surgery page. Dr. Medawar will advise on safe and sensible procedure combinations during your consultation.
Are the results of blepharoplasty permanent?
Yes — blepharoplasty produces a permanent improvement. The excess eyelid skin that is removed does not grow back. However, the natural ageing process continues over time, and some patients choose to have additional eyelid refinement 10–15 years later. The immediate result — a more open, refreshed, and alert-looking eye — is long-lasting and visible from the moment swelling resolves, typically within 3–4 weeks.
