Bag, fat pad or puffiness — we sort it out before surgery

Lower blepharoplasty in Astana: removing under-eye bags

Under-eye bags are usually fat pushing through a weakened membrane of the lid. Cream won’t remove it. Surgery takes 30–45 minutes under local anaesthesia, and you go home the same day.

Lower blepharoplasty in brief

At RB CLINIC (12 Orynbor St, Astana — the clinic’s own building), lower blepharoplasty is performed by Dr Ruslan Darbuzov and Dr Kirman Nasipov — 250,000 ₸ per eyelid on the price list, special price 400,000 ₸ for two eyelids — and by Dr Daniz Kerimzade, 300,000 ₸ per eyelid. Surgery on the lower lids takes 30–45 minutes under local anaesthesia, and you go home the same day. Back to work in 2–3 days, stitches are removed on day 12, and the final result is assessed after 12–18 months. The clinic does not offer thread or laser blepharoplasty. One in three eyelid operations at RB CLINIC is a revision of surgery done elsewhere. Booking: +7 771 848 00 00 (WhatsApp), Mon–Sat 9:00–19:00.

Bags, fat pads or puffiness

Under-eye bags: when surgery helps and when it doesn’t

Surgery removes what has pushed forward: fat and excess skin. It won’t treat puffiness from salt, poor sleep or kidney problems. The fat under the lower lid isn’t “extra”: it’s a cushion that holds the eye in its socket. With age, the membrane that holds it back weakens and the fat bulges forward. These are the “fat pads” — bags that stay in the morning and after rest.

Fat — the eye’s cushion Membrane (septum) Skin and muscle Orbital bone Eye

The lid in cross-section: where a fat pad comes from

The membrane is taut and keeps the fat in place. The under-eye area is smooth, the same morning and evening.

Lower blepharoplasty removes or repositions the bulging fat and, if needed, trims excess skin.

If the cause isn’t in the lid, the surgeon will tell you at the consultation. Send two photos on WhatsApp — we’ll tell you whether it looks like a fat pad before you even come.

Surgery

How lower blepharoplasty is done

The surgeon removes or repositions the fat and, if needed, trims excess skin. The incision is either just under the lashes or on the inside of the lid, chosen for your case.

Through the skin under the lashes

The incision runs 1–2 mm below the lash line and hides in a natural crease. Both fat pads and excess skin can be addressed.

The surgeon will tell you at the consultation which approach suits you.

Surgery day: about two and a half hours at the clinic

  1. Entrance to RB CLINIC at 12 Orynbor St on blepharoplasty day
    You arrive and check inThe administrator shows you to the ward. No hospital stay.
  2. An RB CLINIC surgeon marks a patient’s eyelid before blepharoplasty while she watches in a mirror
    Exam and markingThe lines are drawn by the surgeon who will operate.
  3. An RB CLINIC surgeon during blepharoplasty under local anaesthesia
    Surgery — 30–45 minutesLocal anaesthesia: you’re awake and feel touch, not pain.
  4. A patient under a sterile drape during eyelid surgery: the surgeon touches the lid
    Stitch and dressingA fine stitch, a sterile dressing — and you’re taken back to the ward.
  5. A clock in the RB CLINIC corridor: home on the day of surgery
    Home the same dayDon’t drive — ask someone to collect you.

Before surgery — eight checks and the eye itself

The operation is two millimetres from the eye, so not only your blood but the eye itself is checked first. No aspirin-containing drugs for a week before; no make-up or contact lenses on the day.

Why each check matters
  1. Blood test for IgE to the anaesthetic
  2. Coagulation panel
  3. Basic blood test
  4. Hepatitis B and C, HIV, syphilis test
  5. Biochemistry
  6. ECG
  7. Thyroid hormones
  8. Eye check: visual acuity, eye pressure, fundus

After surgery

Recovery after lower blepharoplasty

Back to work in 2–3 days, stitches out on day 12, final result assessed after 12–18 months.

  1. Swelling, light bruising and a feeling of tightness are normal.

  2. You can return to work.

  3. Stitches are removed.

  4. Some restrictions: the administrators give you a care leaflet.

  5. Tissues fully settle and the result is assessed.

Call straight away — +7 771 848 00 00 — if the lid suddenly swells and hurts, your vision gets worse, or a stitch opens. These are rare, but they can’t be waited out at home.

About the risks, honestly. Lower blepharoplasty has known risks: temporary swelling of the conjunctiva, asymmetry, pulling down or turning out of the lower lid if it was lax before surgery. Discuss this with the surgeon at the consultation: he will assess how firm your lower lid is.

Vladimir Sergeev★★★★★4 December 2024

A well-known private eye clinic in the country, with outstanding doctors in blepharoplasty. I was a patient here myself. I’ll say straight away: it isn’t cheap, but it’s high quality. The staff, which matters a lot, are professional. You can trust them with your eyes, but follow all the clinic’s instructions. Good health to everyone, and if you can, only go to medical facilities when you really need to — well, and for ageing facial skin))))))

Murat Buldekbayev★★★★★6 December 2021

This is one of the best clinics in the capital of Kazakhstan. They give many people their sight and beauty back. Of course it isn’t free, but what wouldn’t you do for yourself. The staff here are good. Attentive doctors and modern equipment. Most importantly, they explain everything very well, which matters for older patients.

Questions

Questions about lower blepharoplasty

How much does lower blepharoplasty cost?

The price is per eyelid on the surgeon’s price list: 250,000 ₸ per eyelid with Dr Darbuzov and Dr Nasipov, 300,000 ₸ per eyelid with Dr Kerimzade. Dr Darbuzov and Dr Nasipov have a special price of 400,000 ₸ for two eyelids. A revision after another clinic is 350,000 ₸ per eyelid with Dr Darbuzov and Dr Nasipov, 400,000 ₸ per eyelid with Dr Kerimzade.

Can bags be removed without surgery?

If the bag is a fat pad that has pushed forward, no: no cream, massage or threads will remove it. Morning puffiness and dark circles are treated differently and don’t need surgery. The surgeon will tell you what you have from photos or at an exam.

Will the scars show?

The stitch hides just below the lash line, and with the inside approach there is none outside at all. For the first weeks the line is pink, then it fades. Tissues fully settle over 12–18 months.

When can I go back to work?

After 2–3 days. Swelling and light bruising in the first days are common; stitches come out on day 12.

Can upper and lower lids be done at the same time?

Yes, that’s four-lid blepharoplasty: all four eyelids in one operation. The price is per eyelid on the surgeon’s price list: 250,000 ₸ per eyelid with Dr Darbuzov and Dr Nasipov, 300,000 ₸ per eyelid with Dr Kerimzade. More about upper blepharoplasty on a separate page.

From what age is lower blepharoplasty done?

From 16–17 for medical reasons, with permission from a parent or guardian. Whether you can be operated on is decided by your tests and the surgeon’s examination.

Do you offer thread or laser blepharoplasty?

No. Threads and lasers remove neither fat pads nor excess skin: threads only lift, and “laser blepharoplasty” is skin resurfacing, not surgery. We perform surgical blepharoplasty.
