AREAS OF EXPERTISE
Eyelid Enhancement
••
As an experienced oculofacial plastic surgeon, I specialize in eyelid surgery and minimally invasive eyelid rejuvenation. My goal is always to help patients look their best without appearing overdone or operated on. At my practices in Boston and Wellesley, I perform hundreds of eyelid surgeries each year, including upper blepharoplasty (an upper eyelid lift). The surgery involves removing excess skin and fat from the upper eyelids, which opens the eyes and allows patients to look younger and more lively. I can also surgically treat ptosis, a condition that causes droopy eyelids, and eyelid retraction, where the upper eyelid is too high. Sometimes patients choose to simultaneously undergo lower blepharoplasty, which helps to treat puffiness, bags, and dark circles under the eyes through the careful removal of excess fat and, in some cases, the tightening of the skin with a laser.

Fillers and Other Injectables
••
I am passionate about the benefits of injectables as a minimally invasive facial rejuvenation treatment for my patients. Surgery isn’t always required to reach your aesthetic goals. For example, filler injections on or just below the lower eyelids can help reduce the appearance of mild under-eye circles and eye bags, with no downtime and subtle, natural-looking results. This procedure is often referred to as nonsurgical blepharoplasty. Often, patients who seek dermal fillers under their eyes find that they can also benefit from rejuvenation in the midface to help create a balanced look and a healthier, more youthful appearance. At my practices in Boston and Wellesley, I use facial fillers such as Restylane and Juvéderm to restore volume, soften facial contours, as well as neuromodulators like Botox and Dysport to relax wrinkles. These injectables can be combined for a “liquid facelift.”

Dr. Mitesh Kapadia did an outstanding job restoring my confidence and fixing the issues from a previous surgery. Eyelid revisions can be tricky, so it’s great when a specialist like him delivers such confident, natural-looking results. 10 stars!!!
From start to finish, my experience with Dr. Kapadia and his staff was excellent. Most notably, (1) in the pre-operation consult, Dr. Kapadia outlined the options and expected results clearly and (2) the results he ultimately achieved matched what he had described. I had an upper blepharoplasty. The recovery was smooth with very little discomfort and at the three months mark, the scars are not noticeable and the results are what I had expected.
I had the best experience with Dr. Mitesh! He took the time to answer all of my questions before lower bleph surgery and again on the day of the procedure, which made me feel so comfortable and at ease. The entire experience was smooth and reassuring, and I’m very happy with my results! I would highly recommend him :)
Excellent experience with Dr. Kapadia and his team. The entire process was smooth and professional. My eyelid surgery results look very natural and refreshed, exactly what I was hoping for. Highly recommend.
My undereye bags have bothered me for years. People would tell me DAILY how tired I look. I got used to sarcastically saying "Thanks! That's what I was going for" so they would realize how rude it was.

I recently had an upper and lower blepharoplasty with Dr. Kapadia, and I truly could not have asked for a better experience or outcome.

Every step of the process, from what to expect on the day of surgery to how healing typically progresses, was clearly explained.

After years of prioritizing my family and career, I found myself at a crossroads in my 50s, struggling with self-esteem and no longer recognizing the reflection in the mirror. Seeking a change, I consulted with Dr. Kapadia at Boston Eyelids and decided to undergo upper and lower blepharoplasty along with CO2 laser resurfacing in February 2025. Despite my initial nerves about eye surgery, Dr. Kapadia and his team provided reassurance and answered all my questions, making the journey
