Eyelid surgery work
- Upper eyelid blepharoplasty. Small incisions along the natural crease remove excess skin and fat; typically performed under local anesthesia in the clinic (source).
- Lower eyelid blepharoplasty. Incisions placed just below the lash line or inside the eyelid address puffiness and under-eye bags; typically performed under general anesthesia in the operating room. Fat transfer is sometimes combined with lower eyelid surgery for a smoother lid-cheek transition.
- Upper and lower lids can be treated together or separately; total surgery time is 1-3 hours, same-day discharge.
- No ptosis repair, canthoplasty, double eyelid surgery, or revision eyelid surgery page found. Brow lift is offered as a separate, related procedure.
