Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery) Before & After Case 343

This patient, an active professional woman, was seeking an option to address the heavy, asymmetric appearance of her upper eyelids. She often lifted her eyebrows to compensate, leading to forehead wrinkles and discomfort. After years without successful cosmetic treatments at another office and a previous experience dissolving lower eyelid filler, she decided to explore Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery) and/or Brow Lift with the goal of revealing a more refreshed appearance while maintaining her natural facial character. Her priority was minimal downtime and results that looked healthy, never overdone.

After a consultation with Dr. Houtan Chaboki, upper blepharoplasty was recommended. In this approach, Dr.  Chaboki removed excess skin from the upper eyelids only, which allowed the upper eyelid crease to become visible once more. Her procedure avoided incisions in the thicker brow area and did not involve eyelid fat removal or a brow lift. The patient also noticed her forehead became smoother, even without additional Botox injections. Her eyebrows became more balanced, and she described a lighter feeling in her eyes and face following plastic surgery.

Following her recovery, the patient reported high satisfaction with her outcome. The improvements aligned with her vision of looking better, not different. She now appears more rested and vibrant, and she continues to enjoy her full schedule without concerns about a drawn or startled look. Her positive experience led her to refer friends to Dr. Chaboki.
