Techniques named for blepharoplasty: Closed Suture Eyelid Surgery Technique, Trans-conjunctival blepharoplasty.
For upper blepharoplasty, the surgeon makes an incision along the natural fold of the lid to remove excess eyelid skin and fat.
Additionally, Dr. Ford and Dr. Hanna specialize in Asian eyelid surgery for individuals who want a double eyelid (single crease) instead of a single eyelid (absent crease).
Trans-conjunctival blepharoplasty consists in removing the pockets of fat on the lower eyelids through an incision at the level of the conjunctiva, therefore avoiding an external incision through the skin and leaving no obvious scar.
Blepharoplasty is performed as outpatient surgery, most commonly under local anesthetic for an upper eye lift. Lower blepharoplasty or combined upper and lower eye lift is most commonly performed under general anesthetic given that it is a longer and more extensive surgery.
Upper Blepharoplasty involves the removal of excess tissue and stretched skin that causes wrinkles or hooding on the upper eyelid.
For a lower blepharoplasty Toronto patients will have the incision is hidden just below the lashes or inside the lid.
Because eyelid surgery involves delicate structures that affect both appearance and eye function, the surgeon’s training, experience, and attention to detail play an important role in achieving safe, precise results.
If sagging eyelids and their appearance bother you, lower eyelid blepharoplasty is an effective, minimally painful corrective procedure with high satisfaction rates and a short recovery period.
Blepharoplasty may be performed in combination with fat grafting for periorbital rejuvenation.
Blepharoplasty scars heal beautifully and are hidden in the natural creases of the eyelid.

Yes, Dr. Plant offers eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) for men, helping to address drooping eyelids, puffiness, or under-eye bags.
While blepharoplasty can create an upper eyelid crease for Asian eyes, it cannot erase your unique ethnic features.
Upper eyelid surgery is usually performed under local anesthesia, which numbs the area around your eyes, along with oral sedatives if desired. You'll be awake during the surgery, but relaxed and insensitive to pain.
McRae Plastic Surgery provides eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) in Toronto and Burlington with a focus on precision, safety, and natural-looking results.
including upper and lower eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty). His approach to eyelid rejuvenation is conservative and anatomy-driven, prioritizing natural results, eyelid function, and long-term balance.

Maintenance schedules vary. Most Toronto providers recommend periodic refresh sessions every 6–12 months once optimal results are achieved.
Most patients wait 24 hours before applying makeup to avoid irritation on freshly-treated skin.
Pull the skin under your eye gently downward and outward while looking in a mirror. If the darkness or shadow disappears, you are dealing with a hollow or a contour issue, which filler can often address. If a bulge remains or the skin itself is loose and crepey, that is tissue, and only surgery removes tissue. Upper lids follow the same logic: if skin rests on your lashes or folds over the crease, no injectable will lift it meaningfully.
Sometimes, for upper eyelids only, and only when the hooding is severe enough to obstruct vision. That requires a documented visual field test showing the obstruction, performed by an ophthalmologist or optometrist. Lower blepharoplasty is considered cosmetic in essentially all cases. Ask the surgeon's office to run the insurance verification before you assume either way, because the answer varies by carrier and by how much field loss the test shows.
Upper blepharoplasty results typically hold for 10 to 15 years, and many patients never need a revision. Lower blepharoplasty is often effectively permanent for the fat that was removed, since those fat pads do not regrow. What continues is normal aging of the surrounding skin, which is why some patients pair surgery with resurfacing or continue with skincare afterward.
Temporary dry eye is the most common complaint and usually resolves within weeks. Less common issues include asymmetry between the two sides, visible scarring in patients prone to it, and in lower-lid surgery, a pulled-down appearance to the lid margin called ectropion, which is uncommon in experienced hands but is the main reason lower blepharoplasty rewards surgeon selection. Serious complications affecting vision are rare. Discuss your specific risk factors, including dry eye history and thyroid conditions, at consultation.
Both plastic surgeons certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and oculoplastic surgeons, who are ophthalmologists with additional fellowship training in eyelid and orbital surgery, perform this operation regularly. For lower-lid work in particular, oculoplastic training is a genuine advantage worth asking about. Either way, confirm the certification directly rather than relying on a website description.
