Eyelid surgery and Facelift Surgery

Julio F. Gallo, MD answers: Facelift after Eyelid Surgery?

I'm thinking of having an upper and lower eyelid surgery first by an eye specialist and then have a separate facelift later. How long should I wait after the eyelid surgery to schedule the facelift?

I believe that you will obtain a much more coherent appearance if you have both procedures together. You can definitely find a surgeon who is expert in both. Take your time to find a qualified surgeon with the experience necessary to perform your surgeries. There is little benefit to staging them . Thank you.
