Blepharoplasty on Women of Color Without Cutting to Prevent Scarring- Who Can Do It?
Chicao has a surgeon who can do blepharoplasty without cutting on women of color (Dr. Julius Few). He goes in thru the lower eye lid. Is there an east coast plastic surgeon who does the procedure this way?
A: For many patients lower eyelid surgery can be performed without cutting the skinFor lower eyelids, surgery can often be performed by making a cut on the inside of the lid. This technique avoids any skin incision. This is a great procedure for many patients but you would need a consultation with a cosmetic surgeon to decide if this procedure is right for you.
If you want to ask if a doctor does the procedure, it is called a transconjunctival blepharoplasty.
I hope that is helpful.

I would ask your cosmetic doctor or ophthalmologist to see if Latisse may by worth a try.
