Show off your beautiful eyes again
Do your upper eyelids droop, sag, or appear heavy? Blepharoplasty is a surgical cosmetic procedure that can resolve this aesthetic concern for a more lifted, youthful eye area.
Cosmetic upper eyelid blepharoplasty involves the surgical removal of the redundant eyelid skin and, if necessary, the removal and/or contouring of the fat around the eyes. It aims to rejuvenate the area surrounding the eyes and to render an overall more youthful and rested appearance to the face.

What Our Clients Say
Dr. Mahootchi and staff made my experience painless and pleasant. They catered to your comfort and surgery and aftercare was excellent. I would recommend Dr. Mahootchi to friends and family. Dr. Mahootchi and staff are efficient, experienced and provide compassionate care to all patients. I have been a patient for many years and have always been pleased with the results of my eye care experience.
Five years ago, I had a complete facelift by a plastic surgeon in downtown St. Petersburg, Florida. I ended up with very noticable scarring, drooping eyelids and fat transfer in my cheeks instead of to my temple area. I knew that nothing could be done about the terrible scarring but started looking to repair my drooping eyelids. I contacted Dr. Mahootchie, a well known eye surgeon in Zephyrhills, Florida. I was happily surprised by Dr. Mahootchi’s confidence and willingness to perform a Canthopexy. I scheduled my surgery and couldn’t be happier with the results. While the outcome is very subtle, which is what I chose, it’s made all the difference to me. I was awake and very comfy during the procedure which allowed me to choose my eye shape. It was actually sort of fun!
Dr. Mahootchi and all of the nurses and attendants took great, great care to make sure that my eyes looked like I wanted them to look and that they matched. I also opted for injection of a few syringes of Sculptra and PRP to several areas of my face. I was from out of town and Anna and the entire staff were so accommodating! They even set up a recliner and blankets for me to watch tv as I recovered. I was driven right next door to a hotel to spend the night as I was not allowed to drive home. It was a very nice room. The entire surgery and after care was superb. I recommend Dr. Mahootchi, his nurse, Anna and the entire staff for any eye surgery.
I believe most people will judge a doctor not just by how well he does and his demeanor but also and foremost by his staff when they are first greeted. I can say that Dr Mahootchi’s staff is quite amazing! Everyone has always been so very nice and professional and respectful. Meeting the doctor for the first time he was very receptive, open, and genuine. He asked questions but even more importantly he really listened when I answered. My lower eyelid kept turning in, entropion, and my upper lids were drooping to the point where I was losing peripheral vision. Surgery was the necessary option. Once again, the surgical staff or just as amazing as the office staff! Being treated with dignity, kindness, and patience seems like a rarity these days but I do firmly believe that their motto has to be treat others as you would want to be treated yourself because they are quite simply amazing people. Dr Mahootchi was absolutely wonderful!
