Every surgical blepharoplasty plan is tailored around your individual eye anatomy, skin tone, and aesthetic goals — prioritizing natural fullness and rapid healing.
Removal of heavy, redundant upper eyelid skin and excess fat to alleviate eye fatigue, resolve hooding, and recreate a clean, natural eyelid crease.
Upper Eyelid DetailsEliminating stubborn under-eye bags, dark shadowing, and puffiness through transconjunctival or lash-line incisions with artistic fat redraping along the tear trough.
Lower Eyelid DetailsFull four-lid rejuvenation combined with an endoscopic or lateral brow lift to address lateral descent and restore an alert, refreshed upper facial frame.
Combined ProceduresMorpheus8 radiofrequency microneedling, laser resurfacing, and strategic neurotoxin (Botox) injections to soften dynamic crow's feet and tighten thin under-eye skin.
Non-Surgical OptionsPeriorbital rejuvenation requires surgical margins measured in fractions of a millimeter. With dual engineering degrees from Duke University, Dr. Prucz evaluates ocular tissue dynamics and eyelid support structures with mathematical precision — preserving natural contours while eliminating tired hooding and puffiness.

“I have wanted to get a neck lift forever but I didn’t know who to trust with my surgery. Then I found Dr. Prucz. I was so impressed with him and his staff, I decided to get a neck lift, brow lift, and facelift. I’m so glad I went with Dr. Prucz because he did an amazing job. He and his staff are not only very professional but also very kind. They didn’t treat me like a patient, they treated me like family. I highly recommend Dr. Prucz.”
“Dr. Prucz is an absolute master of his craft. I recently underwent a facelift, eyelid surgery, and liposuction on my chin, and the results have been life-changing. Not only is the outcome incredibly natural-looking, but the entire experience, from initial consultation to post-op care, was top-notch. Dr. Prucz’s expertise and attention to detail are unparalleled. Dr. Prucz’s staff is professional and caring and made the process stress free. I feel more confident than ever, and I owe it all to their remarkable skill and care. Thank you!!!”
No. An unnatural, pulled, or hollow appearance occurs when a surgeon aggressively excises too much skin or deep orbital fat. Dr. Prucz practices volume-preserving blepharoplasty, redistributing native fat pads to smooth the tear troughs and conservatively excising only true skin redundancy so your eyes retain authentic softness and youthful character.
Upper eyelid incisions are meticulously placed within the natural tarsal fold, making them practically invisible when your eyes are open. Lower eyelid incisions can be made entirely inside the lower lid (transconjunctival approach) with zero external scars, or along the lower lash line if redundant skin needs to be removed.
Most patients resume light walking immediately. Fine sutures are removed between days 5 and 7, and social downtime generally lasts 7 to 10 days. Strenuous sports such as tennis, golf swings, heavy lifting, or swimming in resort pools should be paused for 2 to 3 weeks to avoid elevated blood pressure or infection risk while incisions mature.
Yes. Combining procedures is frequently recommended. Upper eyelid heaviness is often secondary to brow descent, while lower eyelid puffiness often blends into midface volume loss. Combining blepharoplasty with an endoscopic brow lift or SMAS facelift achieves complete facial harmony under one recovery timeline.
