Performed by oculofacial surgeon Dr. Samantha Prabakaran, MD.
Upper blepharoplasty removes the extra skin and tissue that can collect on the upper eyelids with age, restoring a brighter, well-rested appearance. In certain cases it can also improve peripheral vision and the overall function of the eyes.
As a fellowship-trained oculofacial surgeon, Dr. Jindal performs the procedure through the natural eyelid crease, keeping incisions hidden and results natural.
