Eyelid Surgery Before & After Case 841

This patient sought eyelid surgery in Los Angeles to address concerns about heaviness and sagging of the upper eyelids. She described feeling that her eyelids made her appear tired, even when she was well-rested. After considering her options, she decided to pursue upper eyelid surgery combined with fractional CO₂ laser resurfacing to help achieve a more refreshed appearance while minimizing downtime.

The procedure involved careful removal of excess upper eyelid skin and precise resurfacing of the surrounding tissue. Her recovery included mild swelling and bruising, which resolved over the following weeks. As seen in the photos above, she now enjoys a natural, alert look and smoother skin texture around the eyes. She reported that her vision was never compromised after surgery and that she felt comfortable returning to her daily activities soon after the procedure.

Eyelid surgery in Los Angeles can offer patients significant improvement with discreet incisions and a relatively short recovery time, especially when performed by an experienced provider. Dr. David Stoker, a board-certified plastic surgeon and founder of Stoker Plastic Surgery, performed this patient’s procedure. His specialized training and use of advanced laser techniques help ensure both safety and natural-looking outcomes for patients seeking eyelid surgery in Los Angeles.
