What is Winged Blepharoplasty?

Winged Blepharoplasty is an advanced eyelid surgery technique developed by Dr. Tripathi to lift and open the outer corners of the eyes—targeting lateral heaviness often overlooked in traditional blepharoplasty. While standard procedures address sagging or puffiness, this approach refines eye contour and symmetry, enhancing the natural shape for a more balanced, elongated gaze.

A Winged Blepharoplasty is especially effective for those with downward-slanting outer eyelids or anyone seeking sharper, more defined eye aesthetics. The procedure can be performed alone or alongside upper or lower eyelid surgery.

Born from Dr. Tripathi’s own innovation and inspired by patients who felt limited by their eye shape and struggled with winged eyeliner. This technique was created to offer both functional lift and expressive freedom, blending surgical precision with aesthetic intent.

Dr. Tripathis has been perfecting the technique over the last 5 years!

“If I could rate Dr. Tripathi more than 5 stars I would. I had been interested in submental lipo for a while now and am so happy to come across the most impressive surgeon. From my first consultation to my procedure, Dr. Tripathi  made me feel so confident and comfortable with my surgery. He listened to all of my concerns and was so patient with me. I was in awe at how smooth the process was from start to finish. He took his time and before I knew it, we were finished. I don't know why I waited this long, but it was definitely worth the wait and I feel more confident than ever! Thank you Dr. T, I would recommend you to any and everyone!” - A.B.

“I first consulted with Dr. Tripathi two years ago, but at the time, I wasn’t quite ready to move forward. When I finally decided to address the excess skin on my eyelids with a winged upper blepharoplasty, I knew he was the surgeon I wanted to trust. From the start, Dr. Tripathi made me feel comfortable and confident in my decision.

“The procedure itself was straightforward, and the recovery was easier than I expected, I had minimal swelling and bruising, and the downtime was very manageable. Now that I’m healed, I couldn’t be happier with my results. I get so many compliments about how bright and refreshed my eyes look, and I feel more confident every day.”

“I only wish I had done it sooner. If you’re considering eyelid surgery, I highly recommend seeing Dr. Tripathi. His skill, care, and attention to detail truly stand out.”

Benefits of Winged Blepharoplasty

Winged Blepharoplasty offers both cosmetic enhancement and a confidence boost for patients looking to subtly refine their eye area. Benefits include:

  • Elevates the outer corners of the eyes for a lifted appearance
  • Enhances symmetry and eye shape
  • Creates a more open, almond-like contour
  • Softens signs of aging without over-correction
  • Can be combined with other blepharoplasty procedures for comprehensive results

What to Expect

Winged Blepharoplasty is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on your needs. The procedure involves:

  1. A discreet incision placed near the outer corner of the eye
  2. Precise repositioning and reinforcement of the lateral canthus
  3. Optional skin and tissue adjustments for balance and support
  4. Fine sutures to promote healing and minimize visible scarring

Dr. Tripathi performs each step with surgical precision and an eye for aesthetics, ensuring results that enhance, not overpower, your natural beauty.

Winged Blepharoplasty Recovery and Results


Most patients experience mild swelling or bruising for the first week, with discomfort managed through prescribed medications. Recovery is typically smooth, with most people returning to light activities within 7–10 days.

Results continue to refine as swelling subsides, revealing a lifted, youthful eye contour that appears completely natural. Final outcomes for a winged blepharoplasty often include:

  • Enhanced eye symmetry and shape
  • A more awake and rested appearance
  • Improved self-confidence and facial harmony
