ToggleWhat Is Eyelid Surgery
Eyelid surgery, also called a blepharoplasty procedure, removes excess skin and fat around the upper and lower eyelids to restore a more youthful appearance. A procedure can also be done if your eyelid droops too low over your pupil. This is called ptosis repair. These surgeries can have dramatic results with scars that are often barely visible!

5+ stars if I could! I’ve been Linda’s patient for years for Botox and fillers, and I truly couldn’t trust anyone else with my face. After having botched work done elsewhere, Linda came to my rescue and beautifully corrected my uneven lips by dissolving the filler. She is incredibly talented, and her work is always so natural and beautifully done. I can’t thank her enough for restoring my confidence. Forever grateful for Linda!Posted on Google![]()

I have been going to Linda for years for my botox, and she truly has a gift for creating a look that is both completely natural and beautifully youthful. What sets Linda apart is how closely she listens. She completely caters to what you actually want, rather than pushing a one-size-fits-all approach. Beyond her incredible skill, she is always pleasant, sweet, friendly, and honest. You never feel rushed or pressured, and her genuine honesty gives you total confidence that you are in the best hands. After years of flawless, consistent results, I can confidently say she is the absolute best!Posted on Google![]()

Linda is truly exceptional! I’ve followed her from her time at AA, and I wouldn’t trust my face with anyone else. She understands my features so well and has an incredible eye for knowing exactly what to do—and just as importantly, what not to do. Her approach is always thoughtful and conservative, enhancing your natural beauty while maintaining a fresh, radiant glow. What sets Linda apart is her ability to make you look refreshed without ever looking overdone. Whether you’re seeing her for the first time or searching for someone you can genuinely trust, I cannot recommend her enough. She’ll take care of those worry lines without giving you anything else to worry about!Posted on Google![]()

I’ve been seeing Linda Luu for Botox for many years, long before she joined La Femme, and she’s honestly the best! She knows exactly where to inject and how much to use to achieve a really natural look without ever looking overdone. Her technique is practically painless, and she always takes the time to make sure everything is right. She’s also great with follow-ups, although I’ve never actually needed a touch-up because she gets it right the first time. Can’t recommend Linda enough!Posted on Google![]()

I can’t say enough about the level of kindness and professionalism, and concierge treatment I received at La Femme. Every single interaction was wonderful. Everyone in the office is top notch. Dr. Mason is a shooting star and fast on her way to surgeon stardom (and maybe as a podcaster as well). She is an artist and a perfectionist and is also honest, clear, straightforward, and no nonsense. Incredible bedside manner. By my third visit I felt like we were good friends. ☺️ Best of the best. Follow the office on IG!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Posted on Google![]()

Update: Dr. Mason did fix the problem I had from my surgery and they look much better. I still have so much pain in the scars on the left side which is disheartening, but overall I am now happier with the results. I had a breast reduction with Dr. Mason. While the sides where she did lipo did look reduced, my actual breasts never looked that much smaller. I did end up losing 25 pounds which helped later. My disappointment is with my nipples. They look so bad that I am embarrassed to be seen naked now. One is completely puckered/indented on one side. I had discussed fixing it with them and I reached out to them to try to schedule through their portal and they never responded to me. I will probably try to find another doctor at this point to fix it. The doctor did seem to be a nice, kind person when she did my surgery and she did find a breast doctor to remove the benign tumor I had before she did the reduction (at the same time).Posted on Google![]()

I’m so grateful for Dr. Mason and her team. They made me feel safe, well informed, and genuinely comfortable from start to finish. Everyone is incredibly kind, welcoming, and accommodating, and they were able to coordinate my consultation and procedure in the same visit, which made everything so much easier. I traveled from out of state to see Dr. Mason because of her reputation, and she truly lived up to it. I couldn’t have had a better experience. I highly recommend Dr. Mason and her team to anyone considering a procedure!Posted on Google![]()

I’ve researched getting a tummy tuck for years, And have had so many consultations, As soon as I went into this office and did my consultation, I knew this was the right doctor for me. The environment is warm and inviting, the entire staff is welcoming and helpful and Dr. Mason was kind, professional, and caring from day one. Unlike other offices, she listened to my concerns and was open and realistic about expectations for my results and never tried to sell me on anything or pressure me into booking. The pricing was direct and upfront, there were no surprises or “add ons” I received everything I was promised and am so happy I found La Femme. I would recommend them to any friends/ family and couldn’t be happier with my results so far.Posted on Google![]()

Upper Eyelid Surgery
Upper eyelid surgery is done for too much skin or bulging fat in the area of the upper eyelids. An incision is made in the natural crease in the upper eyelid. Extra skin and fat are removed through this incision. This upper blepharoplasty incision heals to become a very well hidden scar.
Ptosis Repair
This procedure is done for eyelids that are drooping too low over your pupil. Normally, the eyelid is kept in the right position by the muscle that raises your eyelid called the “levator.” This muscle is connected to the hard structure in your eyelid near the eyelashes called the “tarsus.” A drooping eyelid is usually caused by the stretching, thinning, and sometimes breakage of this connection. A ptosis repair uses the same incision as the blepharoplasty to restore the levator’s proper connection to the tarsus.
Lower Eyelid Surgery
Lower eyelid surgery removes excess skin and fat from the lower eyelids for a smoother contour. Depending on what you need, an incision may be made inside your eyelid and/or outside the eyelid in a natural skin crease. Sometimes fat needs to be removed. Other times it needs to be repositioned.
And sometimes, the eyelid itself needs to be tightened. If you live in Charleston, Dr. Mason will can discuss your particular surgical plan with you and determine which form of eyelid surgery is best for your circumstances.

Blepharoplasty FAQS
Who Should Have Eyelid Surgery?
Many women may be good candidates for eyelid surgery. Many times the issues we see with our upper or lower eyelids get worse with age.
Eyelid surgery may be right for you if you feel that:
- Your eyelids seem heavy and give you a tired appearance
- You have extra folds of hanging eyelid skin
- Your eyes seem puffy or have bulging areas of fat
- Your eyes seem too hollow
- Your lower eyelids have folds of skin or fat bulges underneath
What Should I Do To Prepare For Eyelid Surgery?
There are a few preparations that are important before eyelid surgery. It is helpful to see an ophthalmologist beforehand to make sure your eyes are healthy.
You want to get any issues such as dry eyes under control before proceeding with surgery. Make sure you are eating a balanced diet, get enough protein and plenty of rest. This helps with healing. Do not smoke and avoid being around people who are smoking.
What Happens At The Initial Eyelid Lift Consultation?
During the initial eyelid lift consultation, you will be asked about your medical history to ensure you are in good health and a candidate for blepharoplasty. You will then discuss eyelid lift surgery specifically and your cosmetic goals.
Dr. Mason will examine you so you can decide together on the right surgery for your body. Remember, there is no one-size-fits-all. Dr. Mason will customize a plan just for you.
What Will Happen After Eyelid Lift Procedure?
You will be quite bruised and swollen for 1-2 weeks after surgery. During this time, you may need to use eye drops to keep your eyes moist.
Although blepharoplasty is not a particularly painful procedure, the swelling and bruising can be significant, and you may wish to take some time off work. This is the time for you to relax, heal, and take care of yourself.
Do’s And Don’ts For Eyelid Surgery.
Do celebrate your decision. Do enjoy your new look. Do allow your confidence to skyrocket. Do take time to heal and take care of yourself properly. Don’t push yourself too hard. Don’t skip scar care.
Can You Combine Eyelid Surgery?
Opting for upper eyelids or lower eyelid surgery can have remarkable results in achieving your aesthetic goals. Both procedures offer immediate eye enhancement, with long-lasting effects.
It’s common for surgeons to suggest performing both upper eyelids and lower eyelid surgeries concurrently.
How Long Does Lower Blepharoplasty Last?
Lower blepharoplasty, a surgical procedure commonly chosen by eyelid surgery patients dealing with sagging eyelids and excess fat, can provide long-lasting results.
The duration of the effects of lower blepharoplasty can vary from person to person. On average, the results of this procedure can last anywhere from 5 to 10 years or even longer in some cases.
How Do You Fix A Droopy Upper Eyelid?
A droopy upper eyelid, often caused by sagging skin and referred to as ptosis, can be corrected through a surgical procedure known as upper lid surgery. This surgery is specifically designed to address the issue of drooping eyelids.
