This lovely 54-year-old patient wanted to address upper eyelid heaviness along with a gradual loss of definition along the lower face and jawline.

After a personalized consultation, she chose to move forward with a comprehensive rejuvenation plan with Dr. Erin Smith. Her procedure included an Upper Blepharoplasty to remove excess upper eyelid skin, a Lower Facelift to reposition descended facial tissues and restore jawline definition, and a Chin Augmentation to strengthen the underlying facial structure and improve overall profile balance.

In her after photos, notice the brighter, more refreshed appearance of the eyes, along with the smoother contour of the neck and the more defined jawline. By addressing both soft tissue changes and underlying structural support, her results restore harmony to the facial profile while maintaining a natural, elegant look.

New wrinkle treatments are constantly popping up online, but not all of them are created equal.

In this video, Dr. Frey shares his perspective on recently advertised “coring” procedures for the face and neck and why patients should approach emerging trends with caution. When it comes to meaningful, long-lasting facial rejuvenation, experience and time-tested techniques still matter.

If you’re considering facial or neck rejuvenation, the most important first step is an in-person consultation with a qualified facial plastic surgeon. Learn more about your options at The Buckingham Center in Austin, TX by visiting the link below.

For patients noticing progressive heaviness and excess skin of the upper eyelids, an upper blepharoplasty can provide a meaningful yet natural-looking refresh.

This patient in her mid-fifties came to us concerned about increasing upper eyelid heaviness, knowing both of her parents required eyelid surgery. After a thorough consultation, she elected to proceed with an in-office upper blepharoplasty with Dr. Hudson Frey.

At her three-month follow-up, her results are both dramatic and refined. The excess skin has been carefully removed, creating a smoother upper eyelid contour and a brighter, more rejuvenated overall appearance while still looking completely like herself.

02/26/2026

Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery or an eyelid lift, is a refined surgical solution for drooping upper eyelids, under eye bags, and a chronically tired appearance. As the delicate eye area loses elasticity over time, sagging skin and puffiness can make you look older or fatigued, even when you feel well rested. Upper and lower blepharoplasty work by tightening skin and carefully repositioning fat to restore a smoother, brighter, more youthful expression without looking overdone.

At Buckingham Center, Dr. Edward Buckingham, Dr. Erin Smith, and Dr. Hudson Frey are all double board-certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeons who specialize exclusively in surgery of the face. Every treatment plan, whether cosmetic or reconstructive, is thoughtfully customized to deliver natural, refined results that align with your unique features and goals.

At 62, this patient came to Buckingham Center hoping to address concerns with facial aging, particularly through the lower face and jowls. She also shared a long history of acne scarring from her teens and twenties and was ready to improve her skin texture after living with those scars for decades. She previously underwent eyelid surgery and fat transfer years ago with another surgeon and was looking for a refreshed, cohesive result.

Dr. Buckingham performed a Lower Facelift to redefine the jawline and smooth jowling, along with CO2 laser resurfacing to improve skin tone, texture, and overall radiance.

In her three month after photos, notice the smoother lower face, restored definition along the jawline, and the luminous improvement in her skin quality. The result is beautifully natural and age-appropriate, preserving her identity while restoring a more youthful, confident appearance.
