Eyelid Lift Before & After Case 29

The patient featured above pursued an eyelid lift in Santa Rosa due to upper eyelid hooding and excess skin, which began to affect her vision. She also experienced noticeable bags and puffiness beneath her eyes—a common concern caused by age-related changes and genetics. The patient’s goal was to achieve a more refreshed, alert appearance while also preventing further visual interference.

During the procedure, Dr. Greg Chernoff performed both upper and lower blepharoplasty using state-of-the-art laser technology. For the lower eyelids, he made internal incisions, leaving no visible scars or stitches. The laser technique not only allows for better precision, but also reduces bleeding and swelling, supporting quicker recovery. For the upper eyelid lift, Dr. Chernoff used a laser to carefully remove excess skin, minimizing bruising and maximizing safety. He utilized advanced measuring tools to ensure a natural result that preserved the patient’s ability to close her eyes comfortably. He also performed an endoscopic brow lift to restore eyebrow symmetry and position.

After her eyelid lift in Santa Rosa, this patient experienced marked improvement in her upper eyelid function and a smoother, more youthful under-eye contour. While the excess skin and prominent fat pads were addressed, some patients may still notice residual fine lines or skin texture due to variations in skin elasticity. For enhanced results in such cases, non-surgical options like Morpheus8 microneedling with radiofrequency can be recommended.

Dr. Chernoff, a board-certified facial plastic surgeon with extensive fellowship training and recognized expertise, is known for his meticulous and individualized patient care. His use of advanced laser techniques in eyelid surgery provides natural-appearing results and a faster recovery compared to traditional methods. With a clinic located in Santa Rosa, Dr. Chernoff offers a comprehensive approach to eyelid lift procedures, ensuring patient comfort and lasting results.
