Men want to look refreshed — not “done.”
This gentleman came to Denver-area oculoplastic surgeon Dr. Michael McCracken looking tired, heavy around the eyes, and older than he felt. After a carefully tailored upper and lower lid blepharoplasty, he looks more rested, sharper, and naturally rejuvenated — without losing the masculine character of his face.
Male eyelid surgery is very different from female blepharoplasty. In men, preserving a strong, masculine appearance is critical. Over-resection of skin or fat can create a hollowed, overly arched, or feminized appearance that simply does not look natural on a male face.
That’s why conservative surgical planning matters.
As an oculoplastic surgeon and ASOPRS member, Dr. Michael McCracken specializes exclusively in surgery around the eyes and understands the subtle anatomical differences between male and female eyelids:
✔️ Men typically have lower, flatter brows
✔️ Male upper eyelids should maintain some fullness
✔️ Natural masculine contours must be preserved
✔️ The goal is refreshed — never overdone
For this patient, upper lid blepharoplasty removed excess hooding while lower lid blepharoplasty reduced under-eye bags and heaviness, helping him look younger, healthier, and more energetic while still completely like himself.
Natural results. Masculine results. Expert eyelid surgery.
