About this treatment
Blepharoplasty at Lewen Cosmetic Surgery and Med Spa in Aventura, Florida is performed exclusively by Dr. Gregory D. Lewen — a double board-certified oculofacial plastic surgeon whose entire subspecialty is focused on the eyelids, brow, and mid-face. For patients across Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and South Florida seeking eyelid rejuvenation, this level of subspecialty focus is rare compared to general plastic surgery practices.
Upper blepharoplasty addresses excess skin and puffiness of the upper eyelids through a discreet incision placed within the natural eyelid fold, making resulting scars virtually invisible once healed. Surgery takes approximately one hour under local or IV sedation; sutures are removed within approximately one week, and most swelling resolves within one to two weeks. Starting price is $8,000.
Lower blepharoplasty removes or redistributes fat from the lower lids to address under-eye bags and hollowing. Dr. Lewen uses either a transconjunctival approach — placing the incision inside the eyelid for no external scar — or a transcutaneous approach depending on the patient's skin laxity and anatomy. Recovery allows light activity the next day, with most bruising resolved within two to three weeks. Starting price is $12,000.
Upper blepharoplasty starting from $8,000; lower blepharoplasty starting from $12,000; quad blepharoplasty (all four eyelids) starting from $20,000; ptosis repair starting from $6,000; xanthelasma removal starting from $2,800. Revision eyelid surgery consultation $500, applied to surgery cost.
