How much does blepharoplasty cost in London?
Published London prices we found ran from from £1,875 at St John & St Elizabeth Hospital in St John’s Wood to from around £5,000 per procedure at Moorfields Private. Read London quotes carefully, because some are surgeon-only. A South West London consultant, for example, lists upper lid blepharoplasty at £3,000 for his own fee, with hospital and anaesthetist charges on top.
| Provider (as published) | Price | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| St John & St Elizabeth Hospital | from £1,875 | Day case, local or general anaesthetic |
| South West London consultant | £3,000 (upper) | Surgeon’s fee only; consultation £200–£300 |
| Moorfields Private | from ~£5,000 | Consultant fees, post-op consultation, take-home medication |

Can I get eyelid surgery on the NHS in London?
Only for a functional problem, and the rule depends on where you are registered with a GP. London is split between several ICBs:
- South East London: blepharoplasty is not available on cosmetic grounds, but is funded where upper-lid skin reduces the visual field to 120° laterally and 40° vertically.
- North West and North Central London: these are merging into West and North London ICB, which began using a shared set of clinical policies from 1 April 2026, with 24 policies still being aligned. Ask your GP which version applies to you.

How do I check a London clinic?
London clinics are regulated by the Care Quality Commission. Check the clinic’s registration and latest inspection report, then the surgeon on the GMC register. Moorfields Private operates from several London sites including City Road, Bath Street and New Cavendish Street, so check which site, and which surgeon, your quote is for. Our surgeon checklist has the questions to ask.
