Eyelid surgery work
The blepharoplasty page states patients may choose upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or all four; incisions are made along the natural curve of the eyelid to minimize visible scarring, with removal of excess tissue and fat (source). Recovery: swelling and bruising are common, with eyelids returning to normal in one to two weeks.
Other procedures
Brow lift. Incision placed above the hairline; the muscle near the eyebrows is released and excess forehead skin removed, with incisions strategically placed behind the hairline for hidden scars (source). The practice also offers breast augmentation, abdominoplasty, facelift, rhinoplasty, otoplasty, liposuction, and a range of nonsurgical and medspa treatments. The practice site has no ptosis-specific, canthoplasty, double-eyelid, or revision-eyelid pages.
Insurance and cost
The eyelid surgery page states insurance will not cover lower eyelid surgery, but upper eyelid surgery may at times be covered if the lids are impairing vision; pricing and financing are discussed at consultation. No specific price figures are published.
