Eyelid surgery work
The blepharoplasty page describes:
- Upper blepharoplasty: incision placed in the upper eyelid crease, sutures removed at one week.
- Lower blepharoplasty, transconjunctival approach: incision inside the lower eyelid with dissolvable stitches, preferred for fat pad sculpting and to minimize lid retraction risk.
- Lower blepharoplasty, subciliary approach: incision at the lower lash line with dissolvable stitches, used when more skin removal is needed.
- Canthoplasty: tightens the outer corner of the lower lid to prevent retraction.
- Ptosis repair: addresses upper lid muscle laxity; the page states this is typically referred to an oculoplastic surgeon.
The blepharoplasty gallery shows more than 30 before-and-after sets covering upper, lower and combined eyelid procedures.
Insurance and cost
The blepharoplasty page states ptosis repair may be insurance-covered and is typically referred to an oculoplastic surgeon. No prices are published.
Recovery
Per the blepharoplasty page: upper eyelid sutures are removed at one week; swelling and bruising begin to fade 4 to 7 days after surgery; most patients return to work in 1 to 2 weeks and can resume driving after 5 to 10 days; general recovery varies by individual, typically 2 to 4 weeks.
