Bright Eyes MD

Bright Eyes MD We also provide cosmetic procedures i.e. lip lifts, hair transplants, and more.

Bright Eyes MD is a groundbreaking procedure by Dr. Mark Garbutt that repositions eyelids, removes eye bags, and lifts upper lids and brows—without removing skin or fat.

General anesthesia for a mid-face lift and under-eye surgery?

In my opinion… unnecessary in most cases.

With the Bright Eyes MD procedure, patients stay awake but relaxed.
No full sedation. No added risk.

Just a carefully controlled, in-office procedure where precision matters.

Most patients are surprised by how easy it feels.

And as a bonus?
Avoiding the OR brings the cost down significantly without compromising the result.

Better experience. Better value. Same (if not better) outcome.

Recovery is a challenge because it’s tough to be patient!

No gym heroics for 6 weeks
No alcohol for 2
No makeup for 1

And yes… give it a full 3 months to settle.

Short-term discipline → long-term payoff.

They say the eyes are the window to the soul.

They’re the first thing anyone looks at when meeting.

So when you make an adjustment to your eyes, it makes a huge difference.

Dr. G and Bright Eyes MD
ftw. The trauma stops here 😂

Covering, filling, or waiting for genetic eye bags to get worse is no way to live.

They aren’t a skincare problem…they’re structural.

Once the support is restored and the fat is put back where it belongs, the cycle ends!

The goal isn’t to “do it again.”

If a result doesn’t last, it wasn’t truly fixed.

I’ve seen too many patients stuck in the cycle: treat, improve, relapse, repeat.

That’s exactly what I set out to change.

Restore the structure once.
Support it properly.
And move on with your life.

Posting like an influencer doesn’t come naturally, but if it helps even a few I think it’s worth it.

The thing almost every post-op patient tells me:

“That was easier than I thought.”

Not zero discomfort, but nowhere near what people build up in their head.

Day of you’re relaxed.
You’re comfortable.
Most of the experience is a blur.

And the recovery?
Looks more dramatic than it feels.

Pain shouldn’t be the reason you stay stuck with something that bothers you day to day.

Some aging symptoms are foundational. If you’re an anti-aging enthusiast, there’s nothing else out there like my under eye and mid face restoration! The unique thing about it is I replace the worn out membrane that is suppose to hold your under eye fat under your eyes AND I lift drooping cheeks to support and balance the eyes.

Hot take from someone who does this every day:

Most people aren’t being told the real problem.

So they end up treating symptoms again, and again, and again.

A little filler here.
A little skin removed there.
Maybe an upper bleph thrown in…

But under-eye aging isn’t isolated.
It’s structural. It’s connected. It’s predictable.

If the cheeks are fallen → the under-eyes won’t look smooth.
If fat is removed → brows and upper lids droop later.
If you’re maintaining it every year → you’re managing, not fixing.

The goal was never to look different.

It was to look like yourself, just not tired.

Follow along if you want to understand what actually works AND what most people get wrong.

This beautiful patient (Alicia) came all the way from Florida, feeling concerned about the onset of under eye bags and a descending mid-face. I performed a comprehensive treatment plan designed to restore the structure of her 20s and set her up for decades to come. This included:
1. Under eye fat secured under her eyes via the calsulopalpebral fascia.
2. Deep plane cheek lift accessed via minor incision in the patient’s smile line
3. Bull horn lip lift to restore upper lip fullness and symmetry
Alicia is 3 months post op in these photos and she couldn’t be happier with her results. Her under eye is smooth, her marionette lines have been eliminated and her lips are full again. I’m honored to have been part of her journey!

This is the type of result you can achieve in 3 months. It’s not an overnight change and takes patience and time, but Bright Eyes MD is a technique that delivers premium outcomes.
