Eyelid Surgery Before & After Case 1529

This patient chose eyelid surgery in Los Angeles to address drooping upper eyelids and rejuvenate her overall appearance. She noticed that excess skin caused her eyes to look tired and heavy, sometimes even interfering with the application of makeup. In addition, she elected to undergo fractional CO₂ laser treatment at the same time to improve the texture and smoothness of the delicate eyelid skin.

During her procedure, the upper eyelid skin was carefully sculpted to achieve a natural contour. The fractional CO₂ laser further enhanced her results by reducing fine lines and creating a more youthful, refreshed look. The patient experienced mild swelling and bruising, which resolved over the following weeks. Her recovery was straightforward, and she returned to her daily activities shortly after the surgery.

The after photo shows a restored eyelid crease and a brighter, more open eye appearance. This combination approach provided a subtle, yet effective, improvement that aligned with her goals.

Dr. David Stoker, a board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in eyelid surgery in Los Angeles, performed the procedure at Stoker Plastic Surgery. Drawing on his advanced surgical training and experience, Dr. Stoker tailored the surgical plan for this patient’s needs and aesthetic preferences.
