Facial rejuvenation should not change your face; rather, it should reveal the most refreshed and confident version of yourself. At The Facial Surgery Center, we specialize in blending the power of surgical precision with the finesse of non-surgical treatments like injectable fillers and Botox to rejuvenate your appearance and highlight your natural beauty.
Surgery Sets the Foundation
Facial surgery is often the most effective way to address structural aging issues like sagging skin, loose muscles, or volume loss that can’t be corrected with injectables alone. Whether it’s a facelift to restore youthful contours or a blepharoplasty to brighten tired eyes, these procedures create a foundational transformation. Surgery allows us to reposition and restore, creating a refreshed canvas.
Injectables Enhance and Refine
While surgery addresses deeper structural changes, injectables offer fine-tuning and long-term maintenance. Dermal fillers restore volume in key areas such as the cheeks, lips, and nasolabial folds, while Botox softens dynamic lines like forehead creases, frown lines, and crow’s feet. These treatments enhance surgical results and help maintain them over time.
Why the Combination Matters
Combining surgical and non-surgical care allows patients to achieve a refreshed, naturally beautiful look that instills confidence. Surgery provides the lift and definition; injectables add the softness and subtle contouring that mimic youthfulness.
In many cases, we plan for injectables as part of the post-surgical journey. A facelift may restore jawline definition, for example, but subtle cheek filler can reintroduce the gentle fullness of youth. Likewise, Botox can relax overactive muscles that might otherwise continue to deepen wrinkles, even after surgery.
A Personalized Approach
At The Facial Surgery Center, every treatment plan is personalized. Dr. Hochman and Dr. Tarabishy take the time to understand your goals and tailor surgical and non-surgical treatments to your facial anatomy.
At The Facial Surgery Center, we understand that choosing to undergo facial surgery usually comes with some apprehension. For many, blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) offers a refreshed, youthful appearance and an improved quality of life. Whether you’re seeking to correct drooping eyelids, remove puffiness, or improve your vision affected by sagging skin, it’s natural to have questions about it and seek clarity before moving forward.
We’re here to guide you with clear answers to ease that apprehension and help you feel confident in the experience.
What is Blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure to remove excess skin and fat from the upper and/or lower eyelids. Over time, the delicate skin around the eyes can begin to sag or puff up due to genetics, aging, or lifestyle factors. Eyelid surgery offers a solution that’s cosmetic and, in some cases, functional, especially when drooping lids begin to obstruct vision.
Who is a Good Candidate?
Candidates for blepharoplasty are typically adults in good health who are experiencing:
- Loose or sagging upper eyelids
- Puffiness caused by fat deposits
- Bags under the eyes
- Excess skin that affects peripheral vision
During your consultation, Dr. Hochman or Dr. Tarabishy will evaluate your unique anatomy and health history to determine the most appropriate approach for your goals.
Is the Procedure Painful?
Many patients are surprised by how comfortable their blepharoplasty experience is. Depending on the case, the procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or IV sedation. Most patients report minimal discomfort during recovery, which is usually manageable with over-the-counter pain relief and cold compresses.
What is the Recovery Like?
Recovery varies from person to person, but most individuals can return to normal activities within 7–10 days. Temporary side effects may include swelling, bruising, or mild irritation, which typically resolve quickly. Your surgeon will provide detailed post-operative instructions to ensure smooth and successful healing.
We encourage patients to rest, avoid strenuous activities, and protect their eyes from the sun and wind as they recover. Stitches are usually removed within the first week.
Will There Be Visible Scars?
One of the most reassuring aspects of blepharoplasty is the discreet placement of incisions. For upper eyelid surgery, the incision is typically hidden within the eyelid’s natural crease. Incisions may be made just below the lash line or inside the eyelid for the lower eyelids. With proper care and time, any scars usually fade significantly.
Choosing the Right Surgeon Matters
The key to a successful blepharoplasty is choosing a skilled facial surgeon with extensive experience in delicate eyelid anatomy. The Facial Surgery Center specializes exclusively in facial procedures, combining technical precision with an artistic eye to help you achieve natural-looking results.
