Cosmetic Facial Treatments

Emory Eye Center's oculoplastic doctors work on the areas around your eyes. They specialize in plastic and reconstructive surgery around the eyes.

We perform cosmetic facial surgery to enhance appearance. Our team also offers nonsurgical, cosmetic facial services. These procedures counteract the effects of aging to create a younger look.

Surgical Options

• Eyelid lift (blepharoplasty): This removes excess skin and fat on your eyelids. It also can improve your vision. The procedure can include your upper or lower eyelids, or both.
• Forehead/eyebrow lift: Known as a browlift, this procedure raises the skin to open the area around your eyes. It also reduces wrinkles and lines in your face.

Non-Surgical Options

• Facial fillers: These gel injections decrease facial wrinkles and folds and provide contouring. Common products are Restylane® and Juvéderm®.
• Facial peels: Chemical solutions remove the top layers of damaged skin and stimulate new cell growth. This creates smoother, brighter-looking skin.
• Laser treatments: Focused light energy reduces facial wrinkles. It also minimizes uneven skin tone and stimulates collagen production.
• Latisse™: This topical solution promotes eyelash growth so they’re longer, thicker and darker. It’s a prescription medicine, and you use it at home.
• Neuromodulators: Injections of botulinum toxin temporarily relax facial muscles by blocking nerve signals. This reduces wrinkles and frown lines. Common products are Botox® Cosmetic, Dysport® and Xeomin®.
