Question:

For men who are interested in eyelid surgery, is the best way to keep a natural look a conservative approach?

Answer:

The key to any eyelid rejuvenation surgery is to have a very good relationship between a patient and the surgeon. This will ensure that your result is appropriate for your eyes and for your desired natural look.

Specifically for male blepharoplasty surgery, the key is to not remove too much upper eyelid skin and also not to place the incision too high where it may create a look of a more feminine lid. Dr. Williams performs both functional and cosmetic surgery on both men and women and can provide a full analysis and description of your options.
