Eyelid surgery work
The eyelid surgery page covers both upper and lower blepharoplasty. Upper blepharoplasty is performed through an incision in the lid crease, removing excess skin and repositioning displaced fat. Lower blepharoplasty is performed through either a sub-lashline incision or a transconjunctival (inside-the-lid) incision, lifting and tightening skin and repositioning fallen fat. The practice offers Pro-Nox, a patient-controlled nitrous oxide/oxygen sedation option, during certain stages of eyelid surgery. A separate male blepharoplasty page addresses eyelid surgery for men. The eyelid surgery gallery shows 3 before-and-after patients; the male eyelid surgery gallery shows 2.
Other procedures
The practice also offers brow lift surgery, with its own before-and-after gallery of 3 patients at https://www.eresoplasticsurgery.com/gallery/face/brow-lift/. Beyond eyelid and brow work, the site lists facelift, rhinoplasty, otoplasty, chin and cheek augmentation, breast surgery, body contouring, and non-surgical injectables and skin resurfacing.
Insurance and cost
The eyelid surgery page states a starting price of $7,000 to $14,000 for upper and lower blepharoplasty, with final pricing dependent on the patient's needs and treatment plan; CareCredit financing is accepted.
