If you’re experiencing mild upper eyelid drooping or early signs of hooding, a mini blepharoplasty may be the most effective way to refresh your appearance without the need for a full surgical lift. At Kalos Facial Plastic Surgery, LLC, located in the Buckhead neighborhood of Atlanta, Georgia, our expert team is led by Dr. Benjamin C. Stong, one of the most trusted names in facial plastic surgery throughout the Southeast.

Understanding the Mini Blepharoplasty

A mini blepharoplasty (mini eye lift) is a surgical procedure used to treat mild to moderate upper eyelid hooding or excess skin. This advanced technique, pioneered and perfected at Kalos Facial Plastic Surgery, is ideal for younger patients in their 20s to 40s who are noticing early signs of eyelid aging but want to avoid more invasive surgeries.

Dr. Stong’s approach uses hidden incisions within the eyelid crease and advanced suturing techniques that result in minimal swelling, virtually invisible scars, and a natural lift that complements your facial structure.

Mini Blepharoplasty Benefits:

  • No general anesthesia required in most cases
  • Downtime is often limited to under a week
  • Minimal bruising and swelling
  • Refreshed, youthful eye appearance without looking “overdone”

Why Atlanta Patients Are Turning to Eye Rejuvenation

In a fast-growing metro area like Atlanta, GA, where professional appearance and self-confidence can be pivotal, more people are seeking cosmetic enhancements that are subtle, effective, and require little downtime. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, eyelid surgery remains one of the top five most performed cosmetic procedures in Georgia, and mini blepharoplasty is rapidly gaining popularity among younger demographics.

Dr. Stong has worked with patients across all walks of life in Atlanta — from tech professionals in Midtown, to executives in Buckhead, to on-camera talent and public-facing professionals — providing each with discreet, natural results tailored to their unique goals.

Our Approach: Personalized Consultations, Exceptional Outcomes

At Kalos, we never offer one-size-fits-all solutions. Every mini blepharoplasty consultation in our Atlanta office begins with a detailed assessment of your anatomy, medical history, and aesthetic goals. You’ll receive:

Many patients considering a mini blepharoplasty are unsure if they are ideal candidates — that’s where our experience becomes invaluable.

Our Patients Love Us!

I called Kalos pretty upset after I ripped my earlobe straight through over Christmas. I am getting married in April so I was a little panicked about getting it repaired in time. Whoever I initially spoke to on the phone was SO kind and explained the whole process to me from start to finish. The nice part about getting your ear repaired here is that Dr. Stong repierces it for you. The girls in the office are very upbeat and welcoming. It’s a beautiful office, very clean. I have read some other reviews and have to add that I personally loved that Dr. Stong is direct and to the point. I don’t care about fluff as long as a job is done well and he made my ear look like nothing had ever happened! My family and friends are impressed after seeing my mangled ear and then seeing the final result. Would definitely recommend! I hope to be back in the near future for some spa facial treatments.

Dr. Stong did an amazing job. I had an eyebrow lift, eyelids, face and neck lift. It’s only been 3.5 weeks and I am thrilled with the new me already! He is highly qualified and I recommend him without hesitation. He and his office staff are professional, available and eager to make your experience a positive one.
