After the past 18 months of seeing ourselves up close in endless Zoom meetings and Facetime calls, we’ve all done an inventory of our facial issues. If you’re over 40, one of your areas of irritation is likely your eyelids. Whether it’s due to the thin skin around our eyes and on our eyelids, or whether it’s because our eyes are constantly exposed to the elements — no one escapes sagging, drooping eyelids and the development of under eye bags.
Aging eyes shows no preference by sex, either.
Today, more and more men are choosing to have various cosmetic surgery procedures to […]
As we age most of us develop some degree of under-eye bags. Fat in the area, coupled with sun damage to the skin, declining collagen production, and sagging from normal aging all work together to make these bags more and more noticeable. Thanks to genetic predisposition, even young people can develop under-eye bags.
Regardless of the reasons, no one is happy to see these bags and circles under our eyes.
As a board-certified ophthalmologist and fellowship trained oculoplastic surgeon, Dr. Lee can address the problem with lower eyelid surgery.
Why do these eye bags develop?
Eye bags consist of fatty tissue. Unlike other areas […]
It’s been said, “Time conquers all.” This is certainly true whether you live in King of Prussia or you are the King of Prussia. And it is particularly true on our face. Sure, we may be gaining some life experience, but do our faces have to show all that accumulated knowledge?
Much of Dr. Lee’s practice is devoted to countering that march of time as it relates to the upper face. As an expert with eyelid surgery and brow lifts, he works to help our patients combat facial aging. Our patients often wonder when they will know if it is time […]
Every year blepharoplasty, the clinical term for eyelid surgery, is one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries in the world. It doesn’t take much to figure out why — it is remarkably effective in making the patient’s face look 10 years younger, although not in a showy, obvious way. Eyelid surgery is one of Dr. Lee’s most popular procedures at his Bryn Mawr and King of Prussia locations.
But what happens after the procedure? What is recovery like after eyelid surgery? Let’s get into that in this first blog of a thankfully New Year.

What a horrible, antiquated phrase! The idea behind this statement is much more general: there are several ways in which we may accomplish a specific goal. We utter it because it applies to the desire than many of our patients have a renewed sense of confidence about their facial aesthetic. In a time that feels much more “long ago” than it is, the way to recapture an appearance of youthfulness was to undergo facelift surgery. Today, there are many more options to consider.
Effectiveness through Focus
In many cases of dissatisfaction, the primary area of concern expressed by a patient has to […]
Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a popular option for those who want to enhance the area around the eyes. As we age and gravity takes its toll, the skin on the eyelids will begin to wrinkle, bulge, and droop.
Am I a candidate for eyelid surgery?
It is recommended that you be in general good health and do not use tobacco products. This will allow you to heal more quickly. Eyelid surgery is most common in individuals over the age of 35. In extreme cases, some will have the surgery at a younger age if drooping eyelids hinder their vision.
