Eyelid Surgery

Who is a candidate:
If you have drooping skin of the upper or lower eyelids that makes you look tired, with puffiness or bags of the lower eyelids, a blepharoplasty may be right for you.
Intended Results:
Eyelid surgery removes puffy bags of fat from under your eyes and wrinkled folds of skin hooding your eyelashes on the upper lids. The benefits of surgery should reveal a smooth, firm contour of the upper and /or lower eyelids. Your final results will appear over time, usually within several weeks. It may take up to a year for the incision lines to fully refine.
Procedure:
Fat and loose skin are removed from your upper eyelid area through an incision that is hidden within the natural eyelid fold. Treatment of the lower eyelids often requires an incision that is hidden just below your lower lashes or in the conjunctiva. Excess skin, muscle, and fat are removed or adjusted. If your lower eyelid skin is not excessive, a different technique may be used that removes fat through an incision placed inside the lid.
Healing:
Postoperatively, expect some swelling that may persist for 10 days or longer. Your vision may be somewhat blurry for a few days. In approximately one week you can wear makeup to conceal any remaining discoloration.

  • Dr.Turpin is an exceptional practitioner. He is a true artist and has a gentle bedside manner which helps any patient at any time they are not feeling good about themselves or their circumstance. I recommend the experience with Dr. Turpin. His office staff is exceptional and they always go the extra mile to make the experience worth coming in.

  • I had a breast reduction and lift and couldn't be happier. I interviewed a couple doctors but dr Turpin was the best by far. He was referred by my doctor , had great reviews, his staff was friendly and they got my paper work and insurance stuff done quickly and easily, and he had the best bedside manner than all the other docs I meet. Day of surgery he checked on me before and after surgery. Then post surgery his nurses especially Kathy were just the best! I could call with any questions and they were so supportive. I love how my breast look and best of all how I feel. No more neck and back pain. I'm 8 weeks post surgery still have so breast pain but it's normal is what I hear. I referred a friend that wanted the same thing and she's going to dr Turpin too.
