Procedure: Upper Eyelid Surgery

Surgeon: Dr. Batniji

Location: Newport Beach, California

Procedure Detail: This 72 year old female presented with an interest in addressing the hooding of the upper eyelid. On examination, Dr. Batniji noted she had both extra skin of the upper eyelid and drooping of the brow which further contributed to hooding of the upper eyelid. In an effort to provide a more natural appearance to the upper third of the face, Dr. Batniji performed the following:

• Endoscopic brow (forehead) lift. Dr. Batniji performs his endoscopic brow lifts through small incisions within the hairline. He incorporates the use of Botox 2 weeks prior to the surgery to enhance the results.
• Upper blepharoplasty. Dr. Batniji removes excess skin from the upper eyelid through an incision that is hidden within the crease of the upper eyelid.

Both procedures work synergistically to provide a more youthful appearance to this patient.
