    When your eyes begin to look sunken

    Treat upper eyelid exposure the medical way.

    It’s not stress, it’s structural

    A “startled” look emerges when upper eyelid volume reduces. The underlying bone emerges, forming an "A-frame" hollow.

    Topical solutions don't rebuild orbital support

    Serums and lasers improve texture, but they cannot rebuild volume. True refinement targets the underlying structure.

    It's about more the hollow eyelids

    Refining upper eyelid exposure is about looking refreshed, rested, and aligned with how you feel, all while preserving natural expression.

    The Undetectable Standard™ at every step

    Our clinicians personalise your treatment using our 3-Pillar Framework™ to achieve naturally seamless results.

    Treatment info

    Treatment objectives

    • Softening upper eyelid hollowing by rebuilding volume above the eye.
    • Addressing the A-frame deformity caused by a loss of orbital support.
    • Refining the upper eyelid crease to reduce excessive exposure.

    Suitability

    Suitable candidates for upper eyelid exposure treatment:

    • Notice sunken eyes with excess eyelid exposure or A-frame hollowing that doesn’t improve with lifestyle changes
    • Feel healthy but appear chronically depleted
    • Seek a discreet result that preserves your natural anatomy

    If our clinicians believe treatment is not appropriate, we will not proceed. Your assessment will provide you with clarity, not a compromised result.

    Preparation

    • Clean face: Please arrive without makeup
    • Hydration: Drink water before your visit

    We’ll provide more detailed easy-to-follow preparation instructions when you book.

    Aftercare

    • Avoid pressure: Do not apply pressure to the treated areas for 5 days
    • Redness: If you notice any redness, gently calm your skin with a wrapped cold pack for 20 minutes per hour
    • Hygiene: Keep the area clean and free from makeup for 24 hours

    We’ll provide simple instructions during your appointment so you can get straight back to your day.

    Results

    The Undetectable Standard™

    • Excessive eyelid exposure and hollowness reduce. You look relaxed and healthy, without obvious signs of treatment.

    Identity Alignment™

    • By respecting natural upper eyelid anatomy, your results feel like you, not a corrected version of someone else.

    Have questions?

    Read the FAQ below for general information. For personalised advice, start here.

    Upper eyelid hollowness may develop over time as the natural fat pads in the area diminish and descend. Some individuals naturally have a more deeply-set eye structure, creating the appearance of hollowness. Genetics and lifestyle factors can also play a role in the development of above eye hollowness.

    An A-frame describes a specific contour in the upper eyelid and brow area, often seen after surgery or over time, although it can occur as a natural anatomical variant. It’s characterised by depressions or hollowness both towards the nose and the temples above the eye, creating an “A” shape.

    Non-surgical treatments aim to address upper eyelid hollows by carefully targeting volume and optimising skin quality. We use various methods depending on your needs, as determined during a consultation.

    The best way to determine if this treatment is suitable for you is to schedule a consultation with one of our experienced clinicians. We will assess the degree of your upper eyelid hollowness, discuss your expectations, and recommend a personalised treatment plan.

    To help make the process simple, we have developed an all-inclusive fixed price for our medical upper eyelid treatments that target the upper face.

    So that we can provide pricing information, you need to speak to our clinicians so they can determine if it’s right for you.

    People’s experiences of discomfort vary, but most report only mild, brief discomfort with non-surgical upper eyelid treatments.

    Most treatments involve the use of numbing to minimise discomfort.

    The duration of the results can vary depending on the type of treatment used and individual factors. Generally, results fade over months to years.

    Final results from upper eyelid treatments typically develop over days as the areas heals. The specific time depends on the methods used, and how quickly your body heals.

    Upper eyelid treatments typically have short recovery times, characterised by mild redness and swelling in most cases. Bruising is uncommon, and you can generally resume most normal activity shortly after your appointment.

    Upper eyelid treatments are considered low-risk.

    Common side effects include mild redness, swelling and tenderness. Bruising is uncommon, and typically settles in a few days.

    Rare risks include infections and nerve irritation.
