What Is Eyelid Surgery?

Eyelid surgery—also known as oculoplastic surgery—is a procedure designed to correct issues affecting the eyelids' structure, function, and aesthetics. Whether you are dealing with droopy upper lids (ptosis), puffiness in the lower lids, or irregularities from past injuries, our eyelid surgery in Columbus addresses these concerns by precisely removing or repositioning excess tissue. The result is a refreshed eye area that not only enhances your appearance but may also improve your field of vision. At pēkomd®, our board-certified surgeons use advanced techniques to ensure that each procedure is customized to your specific needs, delivering natural-looking, long-lasting results.

What to Expect During Your Eyelid Surgery at pēkomd®

Your journey with blepharoplasty in Columbus begins with a detailed consultation at our state-of-the-art facility. During this visit, our board-certified surgeons will review your medical history, assess your eyelid anatomy, and discuss your specific concerns and goals. We take the time to explain every aspect of the procedure, including the choice between upper or lower blepharoplasty—or a combination—to best address your needs. On the day of your surgery, you'll arrive at our accredited center where a comfortable, controlled environment awaits.

Depending on the complexity of your case, you may receive local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia for complete comfort. Your surgeon will then create precise incisions—carefully placed along natural creases or within the lash line—to access and gently remove or reposition excess tissue. Once the adjustments are complete, the incisions are skillfully closed, and you are taken to a recovery area where our attentive team monitors you before discharge. Detailed aftercare instructions are provided to support optimal healing and ensure that your rejuvenated eyelids settle beautifully over time.

Recovering After Your Eyelid Surgery

Recovery times vary based on the extent of your procedure, but most patients in Columbus experience mild swelling, bruising, and a bit of discomfort for several days to a week. To manage any discomfort, your surgeon may recommend over-the-counter pain relievers or prescribed medications. Cold compresses and keeping your head elevated can help reduce swelling, and it is important to avoid strenuous activities or rubbing your eyes during the initial healing phase. Many patients find they can return to light work within one to two weeks, though complete recovery may take a little longer. Regular follow-up appointments allow us to monitor your progress, ensuring that you enjoy a smooth, successful recovery.

Dr. Markov is one of the best microsurgeons in Southwest Ohio

I have had surgery is some of the top hospitals in Ohio and beyond. Dr. Markov is one of the best microsurgeons in Southwest Ohio, and the surrounding areas.His education, military background, and work experience speaks for itself. I have found him to be professional, highly-skilled, and he has excellent bedside manner. Dr. Markov treated me with respect, educated me about my options, and empowered me to decide what breast reconstruction option best for me. He approached my reconstruction surgery like Michelangelo to a painting. He was detailed oriented and cared about my final outcomes. I couldn't be happier with his performance. I highly recommend Dr. Markov for any cancer related or cosmetics surgery.

Mr. Dr. Fourman has been the best doctor hands down

Mr. Dr. Fourman has been the best doctor hands down so far that I have ever experienced in my life so far and I only have had my first office visit. He is so polite, listens and exsplained in full detail. He made me feel heard and he actually listened to me as his patient and did not belittle or make me feel like i was uneducated or wrong for my reasons to be vivisting his office. Thank you to Dr. Fourman and his wonderful staff members!

Dr. Straka is very personable, professional, and earned my trust right away!

My daughter first had some work done a few years ago with Dr. Straka. Of course she was/is a beautiful girl in every way, but this definitely enhanced things for her. I inherited the worst bags you could ever imagine. Getting older I thought let me do something for me! I scheduled a consult and I am truly sad that I had not gone sooner.

Dr. Straka is very personable, professional, and earned my trust right away! I am only 10 days post op and I love my new look already! Cristina has been very attentive from day one. I am still being checked on today. Dr. Straka is doing great things at pekomd! I highly recommend him to anyone!!!!!!! He gets a 100 stars

I would say Dr. Markov is a bit of a perfectionist.

After learning I had breast cancer a second time in 2023 I opted to have a bilateral mastectomy with a DIEP flap reconstruction. I looked into 3 different doctors and while I am sure they are all very capable, I chose Dr. Markov. He was straight forward and to the point and he was local. I really liked his approach and he made me feel very comfortable. Today I had my 4 week post op appointment from the final phase of the reconstruction and I am thrilled with the results. I feel and look like myself again. Honestly they look better than they did before my mastectomy. I would say Dr. Markov is a bit of a perfectionist. The only thing left, if I opt to do this, is the tattooing. I am not sure if I am going to do that just yet, because they already look so good. Anyhow, I would 100 % recommend Dr. Markov.

Wish I had done this 10 years sooner.

Don't put it off any longer!
If you have thought about weight-loss surgery, Dr. Fourman is the Dr. you need to see! He's very personable, understands and is caring.I followed all the pre op instructions, did out patient, in the morning, and was up and moving around very well by that evening. He's staff is wonderful too. There are no scary front desk reception. Everyone there knows what your going through. Wish I had done this 10 years sooner. Like I said...Don't put it off for another year!

I couldn't be more pleased with my experience with Dr. Straka

I couldn't be more pleased with my experience with Dr. Straka and Kaleigh! Dr. Straka took the time to thoroughly explain my condition, answer all my questions, and walk me through the entire procedure. The follow-up care has been excellent as well, and I am so happy with my results. I highly recommend!!
