Surgical Rejuvenation:
Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty: Refreshed and Youthful Eyes
Do your eyes show signs of aging that don’t align with how you feel? Upper eyelid blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery or an eyelid lift, can turn back the clock and renew the balance between your inner energy and your outward appearance.
As time passes, your eyelids may begin to sag, leading to a tired and aged appearance. Excess skin and fat deposits around the eyes can obscure your expressions and how you are perceived. Upper eyelid blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that addresses these issues, restoring a youthful and awake appearance to your eyes.
Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty: Revitalize Your Look
Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty stands as a transformative procedure in facial rejuvenation. It specifically targets and corrects under-eye bags and hollows. Through careful removal or repositioning of fat beneath the eyes, and sometimes tightening excess lower eyelid skin, this surgery rejuvenates your look. We tailor each procedure to meet individual aesthetic goals, ensuring a younger and more rested appearance that enhances your eyes’ natural beauty..
Brow Rejuvenation: Elevate Your Confidence
As time passes, a combination of factors like gravity, sun exposure, stress, muscle activity, and genetics can cause the forehead and brow area to droop due to the effects of aging. This process can result in a resting sad or tired appearance, as a low outer eyebrow with a higher central brow, conveys a look of concern or fatigue. The most common condition, called lateral hooding, is where descent of the tail of the eyebrow causes excess skin bunching or overhang on the eyelid eyelashes, leading to the natural instinct of raising your eyebrows, which can create deep wrinkles in the forehead and between the eyes. This skin overhang may or may not block vision, but often causes a deepening of the crows feet lines.
Understanding Ptosis: The Drooping Eyelid Condition
Ptosis (pronounced toe-sis), commonly known as a droopy eyelid(s), is a condition where people have trouble keeping their eyelids open. To see better, they might consciously or unconsciously raise their eyebrows or tilt their heads back. In severe cases, they may resort to lifting their eyelids with fingers or even using tape for a clearer view.
Various causes lead to droopy eyelids, and Dr. Kellie Satterfield offers expertise in treating all types of ptosis. She specializes in customized Scarless Ptosis repair™, External Levator Advancements, and Frontalis Ptosis Slings for those with complete eyelid paralysis, addressing each patient’s unique anatomy and concerns.
Lower Eyelid Festoon: Causes and Treatment Options
A lower eyelid festoon, often referred to as ‘malar’ festoons, refers to a condition characterized by the presence of persistent swelling or puffiness in the lower eyelid and cheek area. These festoons can be frustrating for individuals who wish to achieve a smoother and more youthful lower eyelid appearance.

What is Xanthelasma?
Xanthelasma is a deposit of cholesterol (i.e. lipids or fats) in white blood cells located in the deeper layers of skin and sometimes eyelid muscle. Lesions can range from 0.5mm to 4.5mm in thickness [1]. While previously thought that lesions were located in the superficial skin, recent data show that 58% involve deeper skin (dermis) and 27% infiltrate into underlying orbicularis muscle [1].
