Eyelid surgery work
- Upper blepharoplasty. Small incisions hidden in the upper eyelid crease are used to reposition fat, tighten muscle and remove excess skin; local anesthesia with or without sedation. The page states the procedure does not correct crow's feet, forehead wrinkles or sagging eyebrows, which are addressed separately with a brow lift or injectables (source).
- The practice site has no separate lower-eyelid procedure page, but the gallery describes lower and combined upper/lower blepharoplasty in detail, frequently combined with fat transfer to the lower eyelid and midface, and sometimes with laser skin resurfacing.
Other procedures
The site lists facelift, fat transfer, rhinoplasty and revision rhinoplasty as cosmetic surgery procedures; reconstructive procedures including facial nerve repair, facial trauma repair, keloid repair, Mohs reconstruction, nasal fracture and reconstruction, portwine stain removal, scar repair, skin cancer reconstruction and vascular birthmarks; and non-surgical procedures including Botox, Kybella, PRP, Dysport, fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Belotero, Perlane, Radiesse, Sculptra, Voluma), laser skin resurfacing and microneedling (site navigation).
