Dr. John Lee prides himself on helping clients look as young as they feel. Some things to consider; be in generally good health, be prepared for a surgical procedure and recovery time, be prepared to follow all of Dr. Lee’s pre and post-operative instructions, and have realistic expectations.
Dr. John Lee has over 15 years of experience ensuring you receive the best results, but to maintain the results even after eyelid cosmetic surgery:
Ongoing Botox treatments to maintain an elevated brow position and to prevent overall brow droop caused by facial expressions such as frowning and smiling, which is critical to the overall appearance of the eyes since the brow frames the eyes
Focus on skin care. Your skin covers the largest surface area of your face. As we age, we lose the ability to regenerate our cells and our collagen production slows down. Ongoing medical skin care treatments such as lasers to target visible problems such as wrinkles and pigment to microneedling and peels to stimulate cellular turnover and collagen production is the formula to maintain a youthful and healthy skin.
Avoid sun exposure and use Vitamin C daily as an extra layer of protection from the sun- #1 cause of skin damage. Try Skinceuticals line of Vitamin C products, the #1 medical skincare brand in the world and sold in our office ALWAYS 15% off.
Use medical grade skincare products such as Skinceuticals. Must have items include Vitamin C for protection/repair caused by sun/environment and a medical grade exfoliant such as retinols or glycolic acid products. All these products can be purchased from our office.
No, you can not wear your contacts for few weeks, until your swelling is down
Yes, you can wear glasses the day after; you will need to wait 24 hrs for the anesthetic to wear off before driving since you will have some double vision until then
Putting extra pillows on your head and below your knees will help and also help the fluid to drain and less swelling to upper face/eyelids
No, you do not need to wear anything when you sleep, if you end up on your stomach, you will just have more swelling to deal with but that is fine, end result will be same, just longer swelling period
Your skin quality is based on your pre-existing quality; with the Co2 it will be better but remember the puffiness will continue to become more prominent as the fat pushes forward as you age and your skin will loose more elasticity; if after 4-6 months you desire the skin to be tighter, you can have a 2nd Co2 treatment or tighten the skin (less than 5% of our lower lids surgery patients have the skin tightening procedure and are happy with their outcome)
No, all the fat is taken out bc if some is left, you will need surgery again as that fat becomes more prominent; please know that if you are naturally hollow, you will look hollow after surgery, the surgery does NOT cause hollowness, just unveils your natural anatomy; most of our patients are happy with their results and around 10% does get filler to their tear trough but TT filler is a highly requested procedure and most of these patients never had surgery, it’s just natural process of aging or their natural anatomy
We do not know cost of the antibiotic drops you will pick up from pharmacy, depends on your insurance plan; rest is given to you

I do thorough research before going to any physician and Dr. Lee came up repeatedly as the most skilled plastic surgeon for the face. I chose him to do my lower blepharoplasty and couldn’t be more pleased. Not only is he skilled but he is kind, humble and concerned about his patients. I would trust Dr. Lee for any plastic surgery procedure I decide to have in the future.
Jeannette R.
I sought out Dr. Lee due to his experience with treatment of TMJ. I was living with daily jaw pain and headaches. A treatment plan was created for me and my quality of life has drastically improved. Due to Dr. Lee’s expertise with facial anatomy, my smile has remained optimal and he has taken care to maintain symmetry in my face. Wonderful practice and team!
