Eyes & Brows · Vancouver and North Vancouver
Eyelids and brows, refreshed, still you.
Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), brow lift and double eyelid surgery with Dr. Thomas Buonassisi, MD, FRCSC, Specialist in Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery, with a practice limited to facial plastic surgeries. Every plan is designed around your anatomy. There is no template.
The first step is a complimentary, friendly call with a patient care manager.
Eyes & brows surgery
Dr. Buonassisi looks at your eyelids and brows together before recommending anything, so your plan treats what is causing the change you see.
Upper and lower eyelids
Upper, lower or both. Extra skin, muscle or fat is removed or repositioned, through the approach that suits your anatomy. Recovery is typically 1 to 2 weeks.
Brows and forehead
Lifts a lowered brow, softens forehead lines and opens the upper face. Done endoscopically (minimally invasive) or as a direct lift, and often combined with upper eyelid surgery.
All about brow lift →Upper eyelid crease
Creates or defines an upper eyelid crease, with incisional or non-incisional methods, for a natural result that keeps your features your own.
All about double eyelid surgery →Your plan
A heavy upper eyelid can come from the lid itself, from a brow that has lowered over time, or from both.
That's why Dr. Buonassisi assesses your eyelids and brows together, and why a brow lift is often combined with upper eyelid surgery. Sometimes one procedure is all you need.
