How much does an eyelid surgery cost?
July 4, 2024 | 40,00 EUR | answered by Günther Zollmann
Dear Sir or Madam,
my name is Roberta Tressel and I have been struggling with drooping eyelids for some time now. This problem has been weighing heavily on me, as it not only affects my appearance, but also severely impacts my self-confidence. Due to the sagging eyelids, I constantly appear tired and older than I actually am.
I have been thinking a lot about the possibility of getting an eyelid lift to improve my appearance and regain my self-assurance. However, I am unsure about how much such a procedure would cost and if I can afford it financially. Therefore, my question is: How much does an eyelid lift typically cost?
I am willing to invest in my appearance, but I also want to make sure that I can manage the costs without overextending myself financially. Are there different cost models or payment options that could help me finance the eyelid lift?
I would greatly appreciate your feedback and thank you in advance for your support and guidance on this important matter.
Sincerely,
Roberta Tressel
Dear Mrs. Tressel,
Thank you for your inquiry regarding an eyelid lift. It is understandable that drooping upper eyelids not only pose an aesthetic problem but also affect your self-confidence. An eyelid lift can indeed help improve your appearance and regain your self-confidence.
The costs for an eyelid lift can vary depending on the extent of the procedure, the clinic, and the treating physician. Typically, the costs for an eyelid lift in Germany range from 1,500 to 3,500 euros per eyelid. This means that a treatment for both upper eyelids can cost between 3,000 and 7,000 euros. It is important to note that these costs are usually not covered by health insurance as it is a purely aesthetic procedure.
If you are unsure whether you can afford the eyelid lift financially, it is advisable to contact the clinic or treating physician directly. Often, clinics offer various financing options or payment methods to spread the costs of the operation. For example, you can arrange for installment payments or consider financing through an external provider.
It is important to thoroughly discuss all costs and payment options with the treating physician beforehand. This way, you can ensure that you can afford the eyelid lift financially without overextending yourself.
I hope this information has been helpful to you. If you have any further questions or would like individual consultation, I am at your disposal.
Sincerely,
Günther Zollmann
