Gallery 1 - Blepharoplasty / Brow Lifts

Blepharoplasty involves the removal of excess skin and fat around the eyes.
Doing this minimally invasive procedure alone can take years off the face and
add a sparkle not just to your eyes but to your life as well! A refreshed,
rejuvenated look ensues which makes you look and feel great.

Dr. Gupta would like to thank each and every one of her patients in the gallery
below for allowing her to use their before and after photographs for the education
and edification of other prospective patients. Since lower lid puffiness is sometimes
difficult to appreciate with flash photography, you will note that some of the
before pictures are presented without flash for this purpose. Enjoy the show!

Removal of excess fat and skin from the upper and lower eyelids. This results in
