Selecting a Doctor

Finding the right surgeon for you can be challenging. Recommendations from family and friends or referrals from other physicians are a useful way to start the selection process. The internet provides an easy way to refine your prospective list by evaluating the surgeon’s credentials, area of expertise, and perhaps most importantly a before and after gallery. The following are a few objective measures to consider when selecting a surgeon for your upper eyelid, lower eyelid, or eyebrow surgery.

Is the surgeon fellowship trained in Ophthalmic Plastic Surgery? This subspecialty combines ophthalmology with plastic surgery and is focused exclusively on eyelids, eyebrows, and upper facial surgery.
Is the surgeon Board Certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology (ABO) and qualified to care for the eyes himself or herself?
Is the surgeon a Fellow of the American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery (ASOPRS)? Membership in this selective society requires both Board Certification by the ABO and intensive fellowship training in oculofacial plastic surgery.
Does the surgeon perform exclusively eyelid, eyebrow, and upper facial procedures or are these procedures only a small percentage of his/her practice?
Has the surgeon performed thousands of procedures on the eyelids and eyebrows?
Does the surgeon’s practice involve both routine cases as well as complex or revisional surgery?
Do other doctors and hospital staff select this surgeon for their own surgery?
