Eyelid Surgery Case #265

At 65, my patient was seeking to rejuvenate his tired appearance. His primary concern was the sagging skin around his eyes, which not only aged his face but also interfered with his peripheral vision. Familiar with my expertise in facial rejuvenation technologies in Dallas, he came to me to explore his options. After thorough consultations and consideration, we agreed that an eyelid surgery - technically known as blepharoplasty - would provide him with the best aesthetic and functional results.

The procedure was performed in an outpatient setting in Dallas, using local anesthesia and sedation. Two tiny incisions were made, one in the natural crease of the upper eyelid, and the other just below the lash line in the lower eyelid. Excess skin and fat pads were carefully removed, resulting in a restored and more youthful contour to his eyes. In the first weeks post-surgery, he diligently followed my post-operative instructions, which aided in his quick and smooth recovery.

Five months post-op, the transformation is phenomenal. You can see it for yourself in the before and after photos. The result is not just younger, rested eyes, but a visibly brighter and more energetic overall appearance. This is the kind of outcome I strive for when performing eyelid surgery in Dallas, Frisco, McKinney, Prosper, Allen, Celina, Denton, Anna. It’s gratifying to see a patient’s confidence restored in this way. As a board-certified plastic surgeon and chair of the Department of Plastic Surgery at UT Southwestern, I consider patient satisfaction to be the foundation of my work. There's an art to eyelid surgery; it's about balancing the aesthetic with the functional to achieve that natural-looking result. This gentleman's experience is indicative of the high standard of personalized care my patients receive.
