Olympian Simone Biles recently opened up about it. Carlene has done it. And according to the latest polls, blepharoplasty is officially the #1 cosmetic surgery around the globe –  surpassing liposuction, breast augmentation and even rhinoplasty.


To help us uncover everything to know about the latest eye opening procedures, we tapped Toronto-based Oculoplastic Surgeon and Board-Certified Ophthalmologist Dr. Babak Maleki, who Carlene trusted with her own ptosis correction and upper eyelid blepharoplasty. 


Tune in to hear about:

  • What exactly is blepharoplasty, and who is a good candidate? 
  • Bleph 101: How much you can reasonably expect to pay for a blepharoplasty, how much time to set aside for recovery, scar care and how long results last.
  • Don’t sign on the dotted line without asking your surgeon this #1 question at the consultation stage.
  • What happens when bleph goes too far, like some “surprised” celeb faces we’ve seen this year. Is there an “undo” button? 
  • Why Carlene required *two* surgeries, and how she feels about the experience now.
  • Why Dr. Maleki is banking on “micro-fast” transfer for the future of fixing undereye hollows. 
  • For the surgery shy, the in-office, non-invasive treatments that Dr. Maleki recommends to keep eyes looking fresh (including his fave eye cream!)
