Upper Blepharoplasty with Dr. Thayer – Subtle, Natural, and Confidence-Boosting Results

I had upper eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) with Dr. Thayer at Quintessa about three months ago, and I’m absolutely thrilled with the results. My drooping lids were genetic and always made me look tired — this was something I had been self-conscious about for years.

This was my first cosmetic procedure, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Dr. Thayer is an incredibly talented surgeon — my stitches healed beautifully and are barely visible — and he has a warm, calming presence that made me feel so supported. He genuinely listens and makes you feel like you’re in the best hands.

The entire team was fantastic. Maggie, the patient coordinator, handled all the logistics and answered every one of my pre-op questions quickly and thoroughly. Mandy and Dr. Thayer made the day of surgery feel calm and easy, and recovery went even better than I expected. I had prepared for two weeks of downtime, but I was out to dinner with makeup on within five days, and thrilled to get my stitches out that Friday.

Now, I feel refreshed, more confident, and still completely like myself — just a more awake version. I would 100% recommend Dr. Thayer and the team at Quintessa to anyone considering this procedure. It’s a relatively minor surgery with a major impact.
