Eyelid surgery work
- Upper blepharoplasty. Incision along the natural crease of the upper eyelid to remove or reposition excess skin, muscle, and fat.
- Lower blepharoplasty. Incision along the inside of the lower eyelid or along the lower lash line to reduce fatty tissue, loose skin, and lax muscle.
Both from the eyelid surgery page, which attributes the procedure jointly to Dr. Robert Taylor and Dr. Massary without distinguishing technique by surgeon. A separate brow lift page describes local-anesthesia brow lift with swelling and bruising typically resolving within a week. The practice site has no ptosis, canthoplasty, or double-eyelid page.
The blepharoplasty gallery shows six before-and-after cases, not attributed to a specific surgeon.
Other procedures
The site's Face section also lists facelift, rhinoplasty, chin surgery, and skin treatments; the practice offers body and breast procedures as well (homepage).
Insurance and cost
"Costs for eyelid surgery range from $5,500 to $11,000," varying with "type of eyelid surgery being performed (upper, lower, or both), the complexities of the procedure, surgeon and anesthesia fees"; financing is available through third-party lenders (eyelid surgery page). No separate insurance-coverage statement found.
Recovery: approximately 5-10 days for non-strenuous work and activities; mild swelling, bruising, and tenderness; avoid contacts and makeup for at least 2 weeks; procedure takes approximately 1-2 hours (same page).
