Eyelid surgery work

The practice's blepharoplasty page describes upper eyelid surgery through an incision in the natural crease to reposition or remove fat, remove excess skin, or tighten tissue and muscle, and lower eyelid surgery through an incision at the lower lash line to remove or redistribute excess skin and fat. The page does not attribute the procedure to a specific surgeon. The before-and-after gallery shows at least 8 cases of upper and upper-and-lower blepharoplasty, described as work of "board-certified plastic surgeons" at the practice, not attributed by name.

Other procedures

The practice's brow lift page is offered alongside blepharoplasty. The practice also offers facelift, neck lift, FaceTite and laser skin resurfacing.

Insurance and cost
