Duration
2 hours
Dr. Salomon performs upper, lower, and combined quad blepharoplasty at his South Miami practice to address drooping upper lids, under-eye puffiness, and hollowing around the eyes. Upper eyelid surgery uses an incision within the natural eyelid crease; lower eyelid surgery may use a subciliary or transconjunctival approach, leaving no external scar. Recovery is typically one to two weeks. The procedure may be combined with a brow lift or fat grafting for a more complete periorbital refresh.
About this treatment
Blepharoplasty at Dr. Jhonny Salomon's South Miami office addresses one of the most common concerns patients bring to a plastic surgeon: the appearance of aging or fatigue around the eyes. Whether the issue is excess skin weighing down the upper lids, persistent puffiness in the lower lids, or dark hollowing caused by fat redistribution over time, eyelid surgery can refine the periorbital area with relatively modest downtime.
Dr. Salomon offers three primary configurations:
Upper blepharoplasty uses an incision precisely placed within the natural fold of the upper eyelid. Excess skin, and where appropriate a small amount of fat, is removed or repositioned. For patients with ptosis — a drooping of the lid that can affect vision — the surrounding elevator muscles can be tightened at the same time.
