NEWMARKET PLASTIC SURGEON SERVING TORONTO AND GTA
DR. WILLIAM ANDRADE
Dr. Andrade performs an upper eyelid lift procedure that involves removal of excess skin, so it is no longer draped along the eyelashes. It can typically be done under local anesthetic (“freezing”) and takes about 60-75 minutes.
In the consultation process, Dr. Andrade will examine the patient’s skin tone and discuss their goals to determine how best to meet the patient’s needs. We focus on patients who require a relatively straightforward procedure with minimal downtime. The upper eyelid procedure complements Dr. Andrade’s nonsurgical approach of facial aging, with medical grade peels and facial injectables.
