How long does the procedure take?

It depends on your case and the type of procedure — an upper lid alone usually takes 45 to 60 minutes, while a full upper and lower procedure takes around 90 to 120 minutes. The exact time is determined by Dr. Mahmoud Rashed after examination.

What is recovery like?

Recovery varies from case to case depending on the procedure and the normal swelling that follows it. Most people return to their daily routine within a few days, with regular follow-up with Dr. Mahmoud Rashed until full recovery.

Can multiple procedures be done together?

Possible depending on assessment; the doctor determines the safest plan for you.

Understand your case before any decision

Not every dark shadow is a dark circle, and not every heavy lid needs the same plan. These visuals explain the difference simply.

Illustration of the difference between under-eye hollows and dark circles — A dark under-eye is not always pigmentation — it is often a hollow or a shadow cast by puffiness, and the treatment differs.
