- Lower blepharoplasty. Addresses puffiness and under-eye bags and smooths the eyelid-cheek transition; local anesthesia and IV sedation, typically under one hour.
- Functional blepharoplasty. The page states upper eyelid skin that obstructs peripheral vision is a condition called dermatochalasis (source).
- Ptosis repair. Correction of a drooping eyelid margin; under 30 minutes with local anesthetic and very mild IV sedation.
- Ectropion and entropion. Each repaired in under 30 minutes with local anesthetic and IV sedation; entropion repair uses dissolving sutures.
- Thyroid eye disease. Lid retraction repair under local anesthetic and IV sedation; the page also names teprotumumab (Tepezza).
- Other eyelid and orbit work. Eyelid reconstruction after skin cancer removal, eyelid lesion treatment, dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) for blocked tear ducts, and orbitotomy and orbital fracture repair.

Other procedures
The site lists Preservation Deep Plane Facelift with platysmaplasty (neck lift), earlobe repair, xanthelasma removal, injectables, laser services and spa treatments (source).
Insurance and cost
- Blepharoplasty for dermatochalasis "can often be covered by insurance"; ptosis correction is "considered a functional or medically necessary procedure" (source).
- The FAQ states functional and reconstructive procedures are covered by insurance if patients meet strict criteria, and the practice submits the information to the insurer. Cosmetic procedures receive a cosmetic quote; insurance does not cover cosmetic consultations (faq).
- The site publishes no prices. Financing: cash, Cherry, PatientFi and CareCredit (source).
Recovery
- Upper blepharoplasty: most patients return to regular activities within about a week; sutures are removed at the one-week visit (source).
- Lower blepharoplasty: most patients return to regular activities within one to two weeks.
- Ectropion and entropion repair: recovery is usually a few days (source).
- Back to work: most patients return after a week of recovery (faq).
