If you’re exploring facial plastic surgery, chances are you’re thinking beyond just one area. The eyes and lower face tend to age together—bringing concerns like under-eye wrinkles, deep nasolabial folds, and jawline sagging. Fortunately, combining procedures like a facelift and eyelid surgery is not only possible — it’s often the best approach.
Renowned double board-certified surgeon Dr. Jonathan R. Grant uses his deep expertise in facial anatomy and aesthetic harmony to deliver results that look refreshed, not overdone. With more than 20 years of experience and thousands of facial surgeries, Dr. Grant is trusted for his precision, artistry, and natural-looking outcomes.
What Happens During a Combined Procedure?
When facelift surgery is combined with eyelid surgery (also called blepharoplasty), both procedures are performed in one carefully coordinated session.
This comprehensive approach allows Dr. Grant to address several key aging concerns in a single surgery, saving you time and offering more complete rejuvenation. During the procedure, he will:
- Lift and tighten the lower face and jaw
- Smooth deep facial creases
- Refine jaw contours
- Correct eyelid drooping
- Eliminate puffy under-eye bags
Targeting the lower face and the delicate eye area simultaneously can create a cohesive, balanced result.
Benefits of Combining Eyelid Surgery and a Facelift
There are many benefits to combining eyelid surgery and a facelift:
One Surgery, One Recovery Period
You only have to undergo anesthesia once, and you’ll move through a single recovery period instead of two. That means less time from your daily life and fewer interruptions to your routine. This streamlined process is easier physically, emotionally, and logistically for many patients.
More Balanced, Natural-Looking Results
Our faces age as a whole — not in isolated parts. Treating the lower face and the eyelids in the same procedure allows for smooth, balanced, results in harmony with your natural features. This prevents one area of the face from looking noticeably younger or more refreshed than the other.
Long-Lasting Rejuvenation
When performed together, these procedures complement each other beautifully. A facelift lifts sagging skin and refines the jawline, while eyelid surgery opens and brightens the eyes. The combined effect is a more complete, refreshed look that can last for years with good care.
More Cost-Effective
Having simultaneous procedures can also be more affordable in the long run. You pay for one round of anesthesia, facility fees, and recovery-related expenses. Combining the two helps you get more from your investment in facial rejuvenation.
