Eyelid surgery work
The eyelid surgery page covers both cosmetic and functional concerns of the upper and lower lids. For the upper lid, it describes tightening and shaping skin and muscle through an incision concealed in the upper lid crease. For the lower lid, it describes tightening skin and tissue through an incision along the lower lash line, or, for more significant sagging, a transconjunctival eyelid lift with the incision on the inside of the lower lid to remove excess fat and tissue (source). The site also offers a brow lift, described on a separate page (source). Before-and-after galleries exist for eyelid surgery and browlift (eyelid gallery, browlift gallery).
Other procedures
The practice's broader menu includes facelift, neck lift, rhinoplasty, facial fat grafting, chin augmentation, lip lift, ear surgery, breast procedures (augmentation, lift, reduction, revision, implant removal), body contouring (tummy tuck, liposuction, Brazilian butt lift) and non-surgical treatments (CoolSculpting, Botox, fillers, lasers).
