Eyelid surgery (the procedure that “fancy people” call blepharoplasty) is how we help fix dark circles and eye bags. The goal isn’t to make you look different, just less tired or old.

Eyelid surgery techniques differ for men and women. Unless you’re going for a feminine look, you don't want to show much upper eyelid as a man. Dr. Koehler restores men’s eyes without throwing their masculinity out the window.

For anyone thinking about eyelid surgery, Kirstin asks Dr. Koehler the important questions, including:

• What's the average age to get a blepharoplasty?
• Where is the incision made?
• How do I know if I need a brow lift too?
• Can’t I just get filler to fix the hollowing under my eyes?
• When can I go back to work again?
• When can I wear makeup?
• Does insurance ever cover eyelid surgery?
