Eyelid surgery work
- Eyelid surgery (upper and lower). Removes excess fat, skin and muscle via an incision around the upper eyelid crease, and potentially along the outer lower lid rim (source). The page references ptosis (sagging eyelids) in passing but does not detail ptosis repair as a separate procedure; double eyelid surgery, canthoplasty and revision are not named.
- Brow lift. Two techniques: a conventional method with "one long incision...from ear to ear, crossing over the forehead," and an endoscopic approach using "several small incisions within the scalp" (source).
Insurance and cost
No price or insurance information is published on the eyelid surgery or brow lift pages; the brow lift page mentions financing options and directs patients to "Book Now" for a consultation.
Recovery
- Sutures out. Eyelid surgery: stitches removed within 2 to 7 days (source).
- Back to work. Brow lift: return to sedentary work possible and stitches removed at 1 week (source).
- Drains/bandages. Brow lift: bandages typically come off within 2 days (same page).
- Exercise. Brow lift: driving resumes at 1-2 weeks if off pain medication; exercise gradually resumes at 2-4 weeks (same page).
