Lower blepharoplasty in Milwaukee WI cost?

Question

How do I find an experienced, reputable plastic surgeon for lower lid surgery? I have had bags under my eyes since my late teens and have progressively gotten worse over the years. I want to look refreshed.

Removing the bags in the lower lids can really give patients a fresh, alert appearance that makes them feel great. I'd recommend seeing a surgeon that regularly performs lower blepharoplasties. This would mean that they perform these procedures at a minimum several times a week. I personally perform most lower blepharoplasties in the office using local anesthetic. The sutures are removed in 3-4 days, and most patients can wear a little makeup and go back to work at that time. If a patient has certain anatomic features, I may recommend a more sophisticated technique in the operating room. That technique can have a quicker recovery than the office procedure. I'd need to personally evaluate your eyelids prior to making a treatment plan.Andrew Campbell, M.D.Facial Plastic SpecialistQuintessa Aesthetic Centers

Blepharoplasty pricing vary depending on geographic location and the cost structure of the surgeon. Expensive areas such as London, New York or Los Angeles or areas with fewer board certified plastic surgeons or in areas with fewer board certified plastic surgeons such as Milwaukee will have higher prices than South Florida. We charge starting at $2000 for Upper Blepharoplasty. Lower Blepharoplasty starts at $2000. Because of the lower costs in South Florida and many surgeons with high standards, patients will come from throughout the country and world for surgery. You should consult with surgeons who own his or her own nationally accredited surgery center for the highest standard of care and for cost containment.Consult with 3 experienced and expert board certified plastic surgeons to understand your options.

The cost of lower eyelid surgery is directly related to the amount of time it takes to perform the procedure in an operating room, the amount of time monitored under anesthesia by an anesthesiologist, and the surgeon's professional fee for performing the procedure. Look for a surgeon who has dictated a significant component of their practice to the discipline of cosmetic blepharoplasty, has lots of before after photographs and photo gallery, and performs them very often.
