Refresh Your Eyes With Confidence
Eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, is one of the most delicate procedures in facial plastic surgery. A well-performed eyelid lift can restore a youthful, refreshed appearance while preserving the natural character of your face. Because the eye area is so intricate, choosing the right surgeon is just as important as choosing the procedure itself.
If you are considering eyelid surgery in Newport Beach, here is what to look for in a blepharoplasty surgeon and why patients often place their trust in Dr. Goretti Ho Taghva at LEA Plastic Surgery.
Why Surgeon Selection Matters
The eyelid area is made up of fine skin, small muscles, and fat pads that require careful handling. Even small changes can make a significant difference in appearance and function.
Selecting an experienced surgeon ensures that results appear natural, balanced, and safe.
A surgeon with advanced training and a refined artistic eye can achieve results that look youthful yet never artificial.
