Our Irvine surgeon strives to minimize any potential scarring during eyelid surgery. To achieve this, she places incisions for upper eyelid surgery along the natural crease of the upper lid. For lower eyelid surgery, the incision is created either inside the lower eyelid or just below the lash line. By placing incisions in areas that are naturally concealed by the eye, surgical scars are rarely visible to the naked eye after healing has occurred.
