Blepharoplasty (Eyelid surgery)
This page has been changed. Please click here to be re-routed to the correct page.
Eyelid surgery, including upper and lower lid blepharoplasty, is performed to remove excess upper eyelid skin and bulging lower eyelid fat pads. This minor surgical procedure is often done in an office-based operating room with local anesthesia and light sedation. Recovery is usually complete within 3 to 4 days, though mild swelling and bruising may last 7-10 days. Most patients say there is little to no pain with blepharoplasty and the aesthetic benefits are realized quickly.
This is one of the most rewarding cosmetic surgical procedures offered by Carey Nease, MD and also one of the most common procedures performed in our office at Southern Surgical Arts because of the immediate results in facial rejuvenation and quick recovery.
Carey Nease, MD uses an advanced artistic approach to eyelid surgery by sculpting a more youthful look with the added benefit of chemical peels, Affirm CO2 laser treatments and fat transfer.
