Struggling with droopy lids or a tired look even when you’re wide awake? At Skin Works Medical Spa in Torrance, our board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Shana Kalaria performs a refined, in-office upper blepharoplasty to remove excess skin and redefine your eyelid contour, so you look refreshed, alert, and naturally youthful (not “done”).
This in-office procedure addresses hooded or sagging upper lids by removing stretched skin and tightening underlying tissue. It restores your natural eyelid crease and opens the eyes—improving appearance and, for many, peripheral vision. No hospital setting required; you’ll be treated comfortably at our Torrance clinic.
We see patients from Redondo Beach to Palos Verdes and beyond. Whether age-related sagging or genetic hooding since your 20s, an upper eyelid lift can be life-changing—both functionally and aesthetically.
Unlike traditional hospital surgery, your blepharoplasty is performed in our private Torrance suite. Dr. Kalaria brings board-certified precision to a welcoming environment where you’re seen as a person—not a chart.
Most patients are back to light activities in a few days and work within 7–10 days.

🔹 Week 1–2: Swelling fades; makeup OK; light exercise resumes.
🔹 Month 1–2: Final results become visible; incision lines typically blend.
