Insurance and cost
No specific price figures or insurance/Medicare coverage statement found for eyelid surgery. The general contact form asks what insurance the patient has, but the practice site has no eyelid-specific coverage statement.
Recovery
Per the eyelid lift page:
- Most people resume normal activities within five to seven days.
- Bruising and swelling around the eyelids gradually fade over the following couple of weeks.
- Incisions should become unnoticeable within six months to a year.
- Patients return home the same day; driving is not possible immediately after due to general anesthesia.
