Written by Dr. Kami Parsa
Oculoplastic & Reconstructive Surgeon who specializes exclusively in cosmetic eyelid surgery, reconstructive, and revisional surgery of the eyes and surrounding tissue.
Dr. Kami Parsa’s Trifecta Lift redefines eyelid rejuvenation with its innovative three-pronged approach. This unique procedure combines lower eyelid blepharoplasty, fat transfer to the mid-face, and advanced skin tightening techniques to enhance the appearance around the eyes, providing results that are both natural and transformative.
Purpose
The purpose of the Trifecta Lift is to address the complex signs of aging around the eyes, which include sagging skin, under-eye bags, and mid-face volume loss. Dr. Parsa designed the Trifecta Lift to provide a holistic solution that restores a youthful appearance while maintaining natural facial expressions and contours.
Risks
As with any surgical procedure, the Trifecta Lift involves certain risks, which include:
- Swelling and bruising around the eyes
- Minor asymmetry as the face heals
- Sensations of tightness or minor discomfort post-procedure
- Potential for minimal scarring, expertly minimized through Dr. Parsa’s advanced techniques
Dr. Parsa’s extensive experience and meticulous surgical approach significantly mitigate these risks, ensuring high patient safety and satisfaction.
Preparation
Preparation for the Trifecta Lift involves several crucial steps:
- Consultation: An in-depth discussion with Dr. Parsa to understand the procedure, set realistic expectations, and tailor the approach to your specific needs.
- Medical Review: A comprehensive review of your medical history and any current medications to prevent complications.
- Pre-Operative Instructions: Instructions to avoid certain medications, such as aspirin and ibuprofen, and to cease smoking to ensure optimal healing.
Procedure
The Trifecta Lift procedure is meticulously planned and executed:
- Design and Markings: Initial markings are made around the eyes to guide the modifications and enhancements.
- Incisions and Technique: Incisions are strategically made inside the lower eyelid to prevent visible scars. The procedure involves precise repositioning of fat pads and redistribution or removal of excess skin and fat.
- Closure: The incisions are closed with fine sutures, ensuring a smooth recovery and minimal scarring.
This comprehensive procedure typically takes about two hours under general anesthesia, with some patients also receiving mild oral sedatives to enhance comfort.
Recovery
The recovery process is typically smooth and involves minimal discomfort:
- Immediate Care: Swelling and bruising are common but usually subside within the first two weeks. Ice packs and head elevation are recommended.
- Follow-Up: Dr. Parsa schedules follow-up appointments to monitor the healing process and ensure the results meet the planned aesthetic goals.
- Care Instructions: Patients are advised to avoid strenuous activity and direct sun exposure on the face to ensure the best healing environment.
Results
The results of the Trifecta Lift are both immediate and improve over time as the swelling diminishes:
- Enhanced appearance of the eyes and mid-face
- Smooth transition from the lower eyelids to the cheeks
- Natural, youthful look that complements the overall facial structure
Patients express significant satisfaction with the natural aesthetics and the comprehensive rejuvenation achieved through the Trifecta Lift.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Trifecta Lift?
Unlike traditional eyelid surgeries that typically address only the removal of excess skin and fat, the Trifecta Lift uses a holistic approach to enhance the entire eye area and mid-face. This includes repositioning fat pads and adding volume where necessary, which prevents the hollowed-out look often associated with conventional eyelid surgeries.
Who is an ideal candidate for the Trifecta Lift?
Ideal candidates for the Trifecta Lift are individuals who notice signs of aging around the eyes and mid-face, such as sagging skin, under-eye bags, and volume loss. Candidates should be in good health, non-smokers, or willing to quit smoking, and have realistic expectations about the results.
What can I expect during the recovery period?
Recovery from the Trifecta Lift generally involves some swelling and bruising, which typically subside within two weeks. Most patients can return to normal activities within a week after the procedure. Detailed aftercare instructions will be provided by Dr. Parsa to ensure a smooth and swift healing process.
How long does the Trifecta Lift procedure take?
The procedure usually takes about two hours to complete, depending on the specific needs and goals of the patient. It is performed under general anesthesia to ensure comfort throughout the process.
Are the results of the Trifecta Lift permanent?
