Face Procedures
Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)
Restore brightness and youthful expression to the eyes. Dr. Hua’s blepharoplasty addresses tired, hooded, or puffy eyes on the upper, lower, or both lids.
Overview
The eyes serve as the focal point of the face — the gateway to our emotions and nonverbal expression. Aging, gravity, skin quality, sun exposure, and genetics can dull their shine, leaving them weary and tired.
Blepharoplasty offers a refreshing solution to eyes that have lost their vitality. Dr. Hua uses a variety of techniques to restore bright youthfulness to the eye area and rejuvenate the overall appearance of the face.

Techniques
Tailored approaches
Upper Eyelid Surgery
Incisions are made within the natural crease of the upper eyelid. Excess skin and fat are removed or repositioned, muscles are tightened, and the incision is closed — leaving virtually no visible scar.
Lower Eyelid Surgery
Incisions can be placed just below the lash line (subciliary) or hidden inside the lower eyelid (transconjunctival). Either technique allows excess fat to be repositioned or removed for a smoother lower-lid contour.
- Canthopexy — fox-eye lift that gently tightens the outer corner of the eye
- Canthoplasty — cat-eye reshaping for sagging, tilted, or uneven eyelids
- Tarsal strip — corrects ectropion or entropion of the lower lid
Double Eyelid Surgery (Asian Blepharoplasty)
A highly specialized procedure that reshapes the upper eyelid to create or refine a crease, framing the eyes more expressively. Dr. Hua offers both partial- and full-incision techniques tailored to your goals.
- Full incision — addresses excess skin and fat with the most permanent result
- Partial incision — minimal scarring, best for excess fat with minimal excess skin
Companion Procedures
Because blepharoplasty is so targeted, many patients combine it with brow lift, facelift, rhinoplasty, or microfat grafting for a more comprehensive rejuvenation in a single recovery.
