He completed a general surgery residency at the University of Connecticut and a plastic and reconstructive surgery residency at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, followed by an ASAPS-endorsed aesthetic surgery fellowship at the Bitar Cosmetic Surgery Institute (https://www.plasticsurgerynm.com/dr-jeffrey-wu-albuquerque-plastic-surgeon/).

Eyelid surgery work

The practice's blepharoplasty page describes upper eyelid surgery with a crescent-shaped skin and orbicularis muscle excision closed with a fine suture, and lower eyelid surgery through a subciliary incision within 1mm of the lower lash line, described as preferred over a transconjunctival approach for better skin tightening (https://www.plasticsurgerynm.com/albuquerque-blepharoplasty-or-eyelid-surgery/). The page and its before-and-after gallery are written for the practice generally and do not name which of the three surgeons performed the pictured cases (https://www.plasticsurgerynm.com/photo-gallery/blepharoplasty-or-eyelid-surgery-photos/). Wu's own bio page focuses on aesthetic breast reconstruction and does not itself describe eyelid surgery technique.

Other procedures

The practice offers facelift, brow lift, rhinoplasty, otoplasty and neck improvement, along with breast and body procedures (tummy tuck, liposuction, Brazilian Butt Lift, body lift) (https://www.plasticsurgerynm.com/).
