Eyelid surgery work
- Lower blepharoplasty. Incision placed either below the lash line (transcutaneous) or within the lid (transconjunctival); excess fat is removed or repositioned and excess muscle and skin removed as needed (blepharoplasty).
- Upper blepharoplasty. Incision lines placed in the natural eyelid creases; excess skin is trimmed and muscle repositioned (same page).
- Quadrilateral blepharoplasty. The site's term for addressing both upper and lower eyelids in one procedure (same page).
- The gallery page also captions a case "Pre and Post Blepharoplasty and Pinch Incision," naming a pinch-incision technique (source).
Other procedures
The site lists facelift, rhinoplasty, neck lift, endoscopic brow lift, facial feminization surgery, orthognathic and TMJ joint replacement surgery, craniofacial trauma and full facial reconstruction, Botox, dermal fillers and other medical-spa treatments (source).
Insurance and cost
The blepharoplasty page states that when the procedure is functional, addressing obscured vision, its cost "may be covered by health insurance providers"; when purely cosmetic, price depends on technique and time required. No dollar figure is published.
Recovery
- Swelling. A degree of minor swelling and bruising may be present; head elevation and a cold compress help alleviate it (blepharoplasty).
- Sutures. Dissolvable sutures are used, so there is no need to have them removed (same page).
