Eyelid Surgery in Beverly Hills, LA
Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, is a procedure designed to refresh the appearance of the eyes by removing excess skin, fat, and sometimes muscle from the upper and/or lower eyelids. It can help correct drooping upper eyelids, under-eye bags, and tired-looking eyes, and in some cases, it may even improve vision by clearing obstructed sight lines.
At Shape U Deserve, blepharoplasty is performed by Dr. Garg, With extensive experience in facial cosmetic surgery, Dr. Garg is known for creating natural-looking results that enhance the eyes without changing their unique character.
What Is Blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that improves the appearance and function of the eyelids. As we age, the skin around the eyes can lose elasticity, and fat pockets may become more prominent. This can lead to:
- Hooded or drooping upper eyelids
- Puffiness or bags under the eyes
- Fine wrinkles around the eyes
- A tired, aged, or heavy appearance
An eyelid lift helps restore a more rested and youthful look while keeping results subtle and balanced with the rest of the face. Dr. Garg customizes every blepharoplasty procedure, offering upper eyelid surgery, lower eyelid surgery, or a combined approach, depending on each patient’s anatomy and goals.

Benefits of Eyelid Lift Surgery
Blepharoplasty can offer both cosmetic and functional benefits, including:
- A more refreshed, awake appearance
- Reduction of under-eye bags and puffiness
- Smoother eyelid contours
- Correction of upper eyelid hooding that may block vision
- Improved facial balance and harmony
- Increased confidence in photos and daily interactions
When performed thoughtfully, eyelid lift surgery enhances the eyes without making them look “overdone.”
Who Is a Good Candidate for Blepharoplasty?
You may be a good candidate for eyelid lift surgery if you:
- Have drooping or heavy upper eyelids
- Notice puffiness or bags under the eyes
- Feel your eyes make you look tired or older than you feel
- Are in good overall health
- Do not have serious untreated eye conditions
- Have realistic expectations about surgical results
Dr. Garg carefully evaluates each patient to ensure blepharoplasty is both safe and appropriate.
Types of Blepharoplasty
Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty
This procedure removes excess skin and fat from the upper eyelids. It is commonly used to correct hooding that can make the eyes appear heavy or interfere with vision.
Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty
Lower eyelid surgery targets under-eye bags, puffiness, and wrinkles. Dr. Garg may use one of two approaches:
- Transconjunctival blepharoplasty, performed from inside the eyelid with no visible external scar
- Transcutaneous blepharoplasty, performed through a small incision just below the lash line, which typically heals with a nearly invisible scar
Combined Blepharoplasty
Some patients benefit from treating both the upper and lower eyelids at the same time for a more complete eye rejuvenation.
The Blepharoplasty Procedure: What to Expect
Consultation
Your journey begins with a detailed consultation with Dr. Garg. This visit includes a discussion of your concerns, an examination of your eyelids, and a review of the best surgical approach for your goals.
Pre-Surgical Preparation
You will receive clear pre-operative instructions, which may include medication adjustments or basic lab work to ensure you are fully prepared for surgery.
Anesthesia
Blepharoplasty can be performed using local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the procedure and patient preference.
Surgery
Dr. Garg carefully places incisions along natural eyelid creases or inside the eyelid to minimize visible scarring. Excess skin and fat are removed or repositioned to create a smoother, more youthful contour.
Recovery
After surgery, incisions are closed with fine sutures. Patients receive detailed aftercare instructions. Most people can resume wearing contact lenses within about two weeks, depending on healing.
Recovery and Results
Recovery
Some swelling and bruising are normal after eyelid lift surgery and usually improve within 1–2 weeks. Mild discomfort can be managed with prescribed medication. Helpful recovery tips include:
- Keeping your head elevated
- Using cold compresses as directed
- Avoiding strenuous activity for several weeks
Most patients return to normal daily activities within a week.
Results
Final results reveal brighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking eyes. Results are long-lasting, and scarring is typically minimal and well hidden.

Frequently Asked Questions
Still need help? Give Us a Call
What is the difference between blepharoplasty and a brow lift?
Blepharoplasty rejuvenates the eyelids only, while a brow lift raises the forehead to address eyebrows sagging and wrinkles.
How long do blepharoplasty results last?
Blepharoplasty usually lasts for many years as far as the individuals maintain their health, and to a lesser extent it will also depend upon aging and lifestyle factors.
Can I wear makeup after blepharoplasty?
Patients can wear makeup after blepharoplasty as soon as swelling and incisions have sufficiently healed, typically within some weeks.
What can I do to minimize scarring after blepharoplasty?
Patients must follow post-operative instructions to decrease scarring, with proper wound care and warding off immoderate solar exposure.
Will I need to take time off work after blepharoplasty?
Most patients require approximately a few days to a week off work to get over blepharoplasty, even though this will vary depending on individual healing and job needs.
Is there a minimum or maximum age for blepharoplasty?
There is no minimum or maximum age for blepharoplasty, as candidacy depends on individual factors and desires.
Can blepharoplasty improve my vision?
While blepharoplasty can enhance vision by taking away the excess eyelid skin obstructing sight, it can be entirely focused on making vision better, or for cosmetic improvement or both. The majority of patients get blepharoplasty for cosmetic improvements.
What pain medication can I take after blepharoplasty?
Tylenol acetaminophen may be sufficient for your pain. If your medical doctor prescribes you a narcotic painkiller, take it with meals as directed to prevent stomach upset.
What can I do to maintain my blepharoplasty results?
To maintain blepharoplasty results, patients must follow a healthy way of life, protect their skin from sun damage, and avoid certain lifestyle risk factors.
