Eyelid Surgery
Open Up Your Eyes
Have you ever noticed how often people ask if you’re okay, even when you feel perfectly fine? Sometimes, our faces tell a different story than how we truly feel inside. For many, with age come tired-looking eyes, which can give the impression of fatigue or sadness, even when they’re full of energy and joy. If this resonates with you, you are not alone. An eyelid surgery, performed by Dr. Fodero and his team at Northeastern Plastic Surgery in New Jersey can help let your inner vibrance shine through.
Regain the Gleam in Your Eye
Eyelid surgery can go a long way in giving you the refreshed and youthful expression aging has taken away. Among the benefits, you’ll:
- Improve your facial symmetry
- Enjoy a more harmonious face
- Achieve a more energetic and youthful appearance
- Open up your face
- Boost your confidence
- Convey your true emotions
- Have a more appealing gaze
- Correct impeded vision
What’s more, this procedure can be performed preventively, before age brings the lids down, to keep you looking like you as you mature.
Further, you can combine it with a facelift, a brow lift, or injectables like Botox and Dysport for a more comprehensive rejuvenation.

Asian Double Eyelid Surgery
Dr. Fodero and his team welcome New Jersey patients looking to enhance their gaze with double eyelid surgery, or “Asian blepharoplasty.”
Thanks to this procedure, the resulting eyelid crease becomes larger and more symmetric, giving the eyes an almond shape. As with all of Northeastern Plastic Surgery’s treatments, double eyelid surgery is customized to your preference and needs.
About the Eyelid Surgery Procedure
It all starts with a personalized consultation. In your meeting with Dr. Fodero, you will share your desired outcomes, and he will review your medical history and assess your overall health prior to the surgery. He will also address any further concerns you may have.
During a blepharoplasty, excess skin on the lids is removed surgically and the gaze is opened up by also —if desired— reshaping the contours. The procedure does not normally require total anesthesia, but local, and it can take up to three hours, depending on the extent of the work done.
Recovery is usually short and relatively comfortable. Some experience mild eyelid tightness and soreness, which can be controlled with over-the-counter or prescription medications. Dr. Fodero will provide thorough instructions so that you can have an optimal postoperative experience. Most patients can return to their normal activities within a week.
Be your body’s advocate. As with any medical procedure, speak to your doctor to find out if eyelid surgery is right for you.
