- Surgery is outpatient and typically under local anesthesia, adjusted when other procedures are done at the same time.
- Blepharoplasty can be combined with a facelift, brow lift, chemical peel or skin resurfacing.
- Brow lift. The page describes an endoscopic approach through small hairline incisions, a coronal incision from ear to ear, and the lateral temporal lift, which the page calls a favorite of Dr. Moses. Anesthesia is general when combined with other facial procedures, or local with IV sedation (source).
