The eyes are one of the most defining features of the face, conveying expression, energy, and vitality. Over time, sagging eyelids, puffiness, and under-eye bags can create a tired or aged appearance. Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a highly effective solution to restore a youthful, refreshed look while maintaining natural facial harmony. At Halvorson Plastic Surgery, Dr. Eric Halvorson offers customized surgical and non-surgical eyelid rejuvenation to help patients achieve brighter, more youthful eyes.

Meet Dr. Halvorson
I grew up in Maplewood, NJ and went to Bates College in Maine. I attended Duke University School of Medicine and completed a general surgery residency at Brown University where I was given the “outstanding chief resident” award. I then completed a plastic surgery residency at Lahey Clinic that included rotations at Brigham & Women’s Hospital, Children’s Hospital of Boston, and Maine Medical Center. Throughout my surgical training, my goal was to become the most comprehensive surgeon possible. To that end, I pursued a fellowship in microsurgery and breast reconstruction at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.
