Eyelid surgery work
The blepharoplasty page describes upper and lower eyelid surgery to remove drooping skin, bagginess and puffiness, also referred to on the site as "hooded eye surgery" or "under eye surgery" (source).
- Addresses drooping or sagging upper and lower eyelid skin, loss of skin elasticity, and vision impaired by sagging upper eyelids.
- Site states results can last 7 to 10 years, and may be combined with facelift, Botox or filler treatment.
- Risks listed: infection, dry eyes, bleeding, discoloration, scarring, trouble closing the eyes, drooping lower lash line, abnormal eyelid skin folding.
- Site states the surgery does not address dark circles, crow's feet, fine lines or wrinkles, or volume loss around the eyes.
- No specific surgical technique (such as transconjunctival approach) is named on the page.
Other procedures
The practice also offers facelift, deep plane facelift, neck lift, fat transfer to the face, deep laser resurfacing, breast augmentation, breast lift and reduction, tummy tuck, liposuction, injectables, laser skin treatments, and wellness services such as hormone replacement therapy (source).
Insurance and cost
The site does not publish insurance or price information for blepharoplasty; pricing is given after a virtual consultation review. Recovery is described as one to three weeks, with eyes swollen, bruised and puffy and possible fluid oozing from the sutures; patients are advised to take time off work and avoid heavy lifting during this period (source).
