Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) is a cosmetic procedure that modifies the shape and structure of the upper and lower eyelids. It involves making incisions along the eyelids to remove or reposition excess fat, muscle, or skin. The goal of this surgery is to improve the appearance of the eye area by getting rid of bagginess, puffiness, drooping skin, or other signs of aging.

Upper eyelid blepharoplasty is a cosmetic surgery that removes excess skin and fat from the upper lids. During this operation, incisions are made in the natural creases of the upper eyelids to access the underlying muscle and fat. The surgeon then eliminates unwanted tissue to smooth the appearance of that area.
This operation can help to improve drooping upper eyelids or skin hanging over the eyelashes. It creates a more youthful and rested look in the eyes and face.
Lower eyelid surgery reduces bagginess, wrinkles, and dark circles under the eyes. During this blepharoplasty, the surgeon makes tiny incisions just below the lower lash lines or inside the lower eyelid. Unwanted fat is removed or redistributed, and excess skin is trimmed away. The surgeon may also reposition or tighten underlying muscle and tendon tissues.
This procedure reduces puffy lower eyelids and improves the transition between the eyelids and the cheek, creating a smoother appearance around the eyes.
Preparation for eyelid surgery begins with a consultation. During this meeting, we discuss the goals and expected outcomes of the operation. Dr. Mata evaluates the patient's eyelids and facial features, takes measurements, and recommends a customized treatment plan. He also reviews medical history and current medications to determine potential risks and whether the person is a good candidate.
If cleared for surgery, the patient receives preoperative instructions: temporarily stopping certain medications that increase bleeding risk, arranging transportation, and stocking up on cold compresses, gauze, eye lubricant, and other supplies for post-surgery wound care. Additional tasks include getting lab tests done and avoiding alcohol and tobacco products. Most patients only need a few days off work; activity restrictions are reviewed at consultation.
Candidacy is ultimately a conversation. Dr. Mata will determine the right path at consultation.

Every procedure at Natural Results is quoted privately after a thorough consultation with Dr. Mata. We believe pricing should reflect your anatomy, your goals, and the specific technique required, not a template.
Eyelid surgery pricing depends on whether you're doing uppers, lowers, or both. Combined upper and lower blepharoplasty is typically priced lower than having each done separately. Every quote includes surgeon fee, facility, and all post-operative visits.
