Expert Eyelid Surgery for Men at Plastic Surgical Associates

At Plastic Surgical Associates in Fort Collins, blepharoplasty for men is designed with the male face, goals, and lifestyle in mind. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Diane Duncan brings decades of surgical experience and a deep understanding of male anatomy, expression, and aesthetics. Supported by an accomplished team, she focuses on natural, understated improvement that helps men look rested, capable, and engaged, not “done.”

What Is Blepharoplasty for Men?

Blepharoplasty for men is an eyelid surgery that removes or repositions excess skin and fat around the eyes to reduce heaviness, puffiness, and sagging. The goal is a more open, alert look while preserving a strong, masculine eyelid shape.

For many men, loose upper eyelid skin and under-eye bags develop with age, genetics, or weight changes. Blepharoplasty carefully reshapes these areas so your eyes look refreshed, but your natural expressions and individuality remain intact.

Blepharoplasty for men can address:

  • Heavy, hooded upper eyelids
  • Under-eye bags or puffiness
  • Tired or “angry” appearing eyes
  • Obstruction of the upper visual field from excess skin
  • Asymmetry between the two eyes

Why Choose Plastic Surgical Associates for Male Blepharoplasty?

Male-Focused Aesthetic Planning

Dr. Duncan approaches male eyelid surgery with a clear understanding that men need different contours than women. She avoids over-lifting or rounding the eyes, instead preserving a strong brow–eye relationship and natural eyelid crease.

Board-Certified Surgical Expertise

As a board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon with international teaching experience, Dr. Duncan has performed eyelid surgery on a wide range of patients, including professional men who must return quickly to highly visible roles. Her work emphasizes safety, function, and subtle refinement.

Regenerative and Technology-Driven Care

When appropriate, Dr. Duncan may combine blepharoplasty with regenerative treatments or energy-based skin tightening to improve skin quality and healing. This layered approach supports smoother, longer-lasting results with less reliance on aggressive tissue removal.

Supportive, Discreet Team Environment

Men often appreciate a straightforward, efficient experience. Our skilled nurses, medical assistants, and front office staff provide clear information, respectful communication, and discreet care from consultation through follow-up, helping you feel comfortable and confident at every step.

Am I a Good Candidate for Blepharoplasty for Men?

You may be a good candidate if you are bothered by drooping lids, under-eye bags, or a chronically tired look that does not match how you feel. During your consultation, Dr. Duncan will review your medical history, eye health, medications, and lifestyle to ensure surgery is safe and appropriate. Ideal candidates are generally healthy, non-smoking, and have realistic expectations about gradual improvement and recovery.

What to Expect During Male Blepharoplasty

Your experience begins with a private consultation focused on your concerns, work demands, and desired degree of change. Photos and careful measurements help Dr. Duncan design an individualized plan that respects your natural features.

  1. The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or light general anesthesia.

  2. Incisions are placed in natural eyelid creases or just below the lash line to minimize visibility.

  3. Excess skin and fat are removed or repositioned to reduce heaviness and puffiness.

  4. Tissues are carefully closed with fine sutures to support smooth healing.

  5. You recover in our accredited surgical facility before returning home the same day.

NEO resolving chronic back pain

“I had chronic back pain before I started EmSculpt Neo treatment. I could never bend over without having a lot of pain. Now, even three months after treatment, I can move freely without issue! I can lie on the floor or the couch, do workouts, and stand for long periods of time without any back issues whatsoever. I highly recommend this treatment.”

Most of my life, I was happy with my C-cup breast size. But after having four children and turning 41, my breasts were small and sagging and barely an A-cup! I made a consultation appointment with Dr. Duncan because of her 20+ years of experience, and at my initial consultation, I immediately felt comfortable. Dr. Duncan listened to me and took the time to answer all of my questions. I consulted with two other plastic surgeons, who both recommended an implant size larger than that of Dr. Duncan. I would have been very unhappy with breasts larger than I have now!! I definitely made the right choice in selecting Dr. Duncan for my breast augmentation.

Everything went smoothly and healed up great

“I had a rhinoplasty with Dr. Duncan about a month and a half ago. Everything went smoothly and healed up great! I had to get a septoplasty as well with a different doctor, and she was so great with accommodating for that. Little to no bruising anywhere, just a scar where my nose was opened, but with scar cream it is fading slowly. I love my new nose!”

Blepharoplasty Recovery and Results

Most men experience mild swelling and bruising for the first week, which can often be concealed with glasses. Stitches are usually removed within several days, and many patients return to desk work in about one to two weeks, depending on visibility and comfort.

As swelling resolves over the following weeks, the eyes appear more open, rested, and balanced. Scars fade gradually and are typically well-hidden in natural folds. Results are long-lasting, though the normal aging process continues over time.

Subtypes of Blepharoplasty for Men

Blepharoplasty for men can be customized based on which eyelids are affected and the degree of change desired:

  • Upper Blepharoplasty for Men: Focuses on lifting heavy, hooded upper lids and improving the visual field.
  • Lower Blepharoplasty for Men: Targets under-eye bags, puffiness, and excess skin with careful fat repositioning.
  • Combined Upper and Lower: Addresses both upper heaviness and lower bags for comprehensive rejuvenation.

Alternative or Related Procedures

  • Brow Lift for Men: Refines a heavy or low brow that contributes to upper lid drooping.
  • Skin Rejuvenation: Laser or RF treatments improve skin texture and fine lines around the eyes.
  • Facial Fat Transfer: Restores subtle volume in hollow areas for more youthful balance.
  • Non-Surgical Facial Rejuvenation: Injectables and energy-based treatments for broader facial refinement.

Blepharoplasty for Men Frequently Asked Questions

Will blepharoplasty change the shape of my eyes?


The goal is to refresh, not reshape. Dr. Duncan preserves your natural eye character and focuses on removing heaviness and puffiness while maintaining a masculine appearance.

How visible are the scars after surgery?


Incisions are placed in natural folds or along the lash line, so once healed, they are typically very discreet. Most men find scars difficult to see at conversational distance.

Is this surgery only for older men?


No. Younger men with hereditary under-eye bags or early lid drooping can also benefit from blepharoplasty when non-surgical options are not sufficient.

Can blepharoplasty improve my peripheral vision?


If excess upper eyelid skin is blocking part of your visual field, removing it may improve peripheral vision. This is evaluated during your preoperative examination.

How long do results typically last?


While aging continues, most men enjoy long-lasting improvement for many years. Good skincare, sun protection, and overall health can help maintain results.

Can I combine eyelid surgery with other procedures?


Yes. Many men choose to combine blepharoplasty with brow lifting, facial rejuvenation, or body contouring to address multiple concerns in a single surgical plan.

When can I resume workouts or sports?


Light walking is encouraged early, but strenuous exercise and contact sports are usually postponed for several weeks to protect healing tissues and reduce swelling.
