Your Eyelid Surgery Consultation with Dr. Rahban

Eyelid surgery is an incredibly delicate and personalized procedure. As such, the initial consultation is one of the most important steps in your eyelid surgery journey. Dr. Rahban starts the process with a detailed consultation that lasts at least an hour — the consultation can go on as long as necessary to answer all your questions.

Dr. Rahban discusses your cosmetic concerns and goals, examines your eyelids, and reviews your medical history. He determines if you’re a suitable candidate for the procedure based on whether you truly need eyelid surgery, have realistic expectations, and whether you have underlying health conditions that preclude you from the treatment.

Dr. Rahban will discuss your eyelid surgery options, highlighting the specific techniques necessary to provide the desired goals. Some patients only need an upper blepharoplasty, some need a lower blepharoplasty, and some need a combination of the two. Dr. Rahban will discuss the technique, incision styles, and recovery steps.

Dr. Rahban will also provide a list of preparatory guidelines — you should stop smoking and taking certain medications at least two weeks before the procedure. If you’re concerned about the cost, Dr. Rahban will discuss your financing options and provide a breakdown of what the procedure will cost. You can take this opportunity to ask any questions you have about the surgery, preparation, recovery, results, etc.

By the time you leave Dr. Rahban’s office, you should have complete clarity about the eyelid surgery.
