What Is Eyelid Rejuvenation?

Eyelid rejuvenation refers to a range of treatments that address the visible signs of aging around the eyes. The goal is not to transform, but to restore balance, smoothness, and brightness to the area, so your eyes reflect how you actually feel. Treatment concerns can include the following:

  • Sagging or excess upper eyelid skin
  • Under-eye bags or puffiness
  • Hollowing or tear trough formation
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Skin laxity and crepey texture

What Eyelid Rejuvenation Can Involve

Because each eye area is different, Dr. Coombs can draw from a variety of surgical and non-surgical techniques to provide customized, elegant results.

  • Upper eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) to remove excess skin and improve hooding.
  • Lower eyelid surgery to reposition fat and tighten the under-eye area.
  • Tear trough filler to restore lost volume and soften shadows.
  • Neuromodulators to relax crow’s feet and fine lines.
  • Laser resurfacing or chemical peels to improve skin tone and texture.
  • Midface support to lift and contour the under-eye transition.


Dr. Coombs often blends surgical and non-surgical treatments for the most harmonious results.
