Dr. Jacob Sedgh performs upper and lower blepharoplasty to address drooping upper eyelid skin (hooding), under-eye puffiness, tear trough hollowing, and under-eye bags. The procedure removes or redistributes excess skin and fat from the eyelid region to restore a rested, open-eyed appearance. A fat repositioning technique is used for lower lids to avoid a skeletonised look. Asian eyelid surgery and male blepharoplasty are also offered. Upper blepharoplasty may be covered by insurance when functional visual field obstruction is documented. Brow and forehead lift can be combined for patients with significant brow ptosis.

When skin excess is advanced enough to obstruct the superior visual field, the procedure may qualify for medical insurance coverage under functional…
Lower blepharoplasty at Sedgh Plastic Surgery uses a fat repositioning technique: rather than simply excising the herniated lower-lid fat pads — which can result in a sunken, skeletonised lower eyelid — the fat is mobilised and redistributed into the tear trough depression, restoring volume at the lid–cheek junction and achieving a smooth, youthful contour. This approach avoids the hallmark over-operated appearance of aggressive lower-lid fat removal.…
