Oculoplastics

Blepharoplasty surgery, also called an eye lift, as excess skin and fat from the eyelids is removed to improve vision and create a more refreshed and youthful appearance. This procedure is also done to remove puffy bags under the eyes. Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, can rejuvenate puffy, sagging or tired-looking eyes by removing excess fat, skin and muscle from the upper and/or lower eyelids. Eyelid surgery may be performed for cosmetic reasons or to improve sight by lifting droopy eyelids out of the patient’s field of vision.

A brow lift, or forehead lift, raises the forehead and eyebrows through small incisions behind the hairline, ideal for patients with droopy eyebrows. Often combined with eyelid surgery, it also helps reduce forehead wrinkles.

Botox injections, the most common cosmetic procedure, reduce or eliminate facial wrinkles through minimally invasive injections of botulinum toxin A. This FDA-approved treatment relaxes muscles responsible for fine lines, smoothing the skin for a younger appearance. Results begin within 24 hours and fully develop over five days, typically lasting up to four months, with some patients seeing results for up to a year.

Juvéderm Injectable Gel is a safe, effective dermal filler that restores skin volume and smooths moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. It is the first FDA-approved filler proven safe for persons of color, made of hyaluronic acid for easy injections and instant, natural-looking results. Anesthesia may be used to minimize discomfort, and results typically last up to a year, the longest for any hyaluronic acid product.
