Eyelid surgery work
Source for this section: blepharoplasty
- Blepharoplasty. The page defines eyelid surgery as removing drooping skin from the upper lids and excess fat from the upper and lower lids. Listed benefits: less bagginess or puffiness under the eyes, fewer dark circles, and lifting excess skin that may impair vision.
- Upper blepharoplasty addresses loose, hanging upper lid skin and excess fat and can correct obstructed vision.
- Lower blepharoplasty reduces bags, puffiness and sagging skin below the eyes.
- Some patients combine upper and lower blepharoplasty.
- Listed risks include infection, bleeding, scarring, blurred vision for several days, slight imbalance and ectropion.
- The eyelid gallery shows two cases: an upper and lower blepharoplasty, and a brow lift with upper and lower blepharoplasty (eyelid gallery).
Other procedures
The brow lift page states the operation corrects drooping brows that may cover the upper eyelids, smooths creases between the brows and reduces forehead lines (browlift). The brow lift gallery shows one case (brow lift gallery). The practice also offers facelift, rhinoplasty, breast and body surgery, hormone therapy, hair regeneration, weight loss and medical spa services (source).
Insurance and cost
The eyelid and brow lift pages make no statement on insurance, Medicare or price.

- Cold compresses are advised in the first few days.
- Strenuous activity: most patients avoid it for at least four weeks.
