The Surgeon's Surgeon "I had been contemplating having my upper eyelids done for years. I finally decided to move forward and saw someone who I have worked with for nearly a decade. He is not only a superb surgeon but a great physician with a wonderful bedside manner. I had my procedure in the office under a local anesthetic. It was pain free and a very easy procedure. While I was not his most compliant patient, I am now 5 months out and very pleased with my outcome. I look more youthful and can see better! Having lived in Dallas for many years and been in the field, I could have chosen many in the area, all of whom are great. I went with the person I felt most comfortable with, in the environment that was best for me. He is someone I have not only worked with over the years but also the one I turn to for my most challenging patients. You will be happy when you choose Dr. Mancini to care for you." Jeffrey M Kenkel, MD, FACS Chairman of Plastic Surgery Director, Clinical Center for Cosmetic Laser Treatment Mission Accomplished! See better, feel refreshed, look natural. As the Chairman of Plastic Surgery Dr. Kenkel had very specific goals with zero room for error. Two years later he continues to enjoy the results. International Clientele I come from Italy, and I travel internationally - and have done so for the last 8 years - for Dr. Ronald Mancini. I am a perfectionist and I do my research very thoroughly. A few years ago, I experienced two serious issues: a botched eyelid surgery that also resulted in ectropion. Corrective oculoplastic surgery is significantly more complex than operating on a new case, so choosing the right specialist was absolutely critical. Dr. Mancini stands out at the very top of his field. He corrected what had gone wrong with precision, restraint, and exceptional technical skill. The results restored both function and appearance in a way that looks completely natural — never overdone. Because of his expertise, I traveled from Italy to Dallas specifically to be treated by him. Now that he has moved to Los Angeles, I continue to follow him there. Most recently, I saw him for upper eyelid filler — an extremely delicate area where advanced technique and deep anatomical knowledge are essential. Once again, the result was subtle, refined, and perfectly judged. Dr. Mancini uses cutting-edge techniques, but what I value just as much is his calm, confident demeanor. He is thoughtful, reassuring, and honest about what should — and should not — be done. He inspires trust immediately. It is no surprise that his work is sought after internationally, including strong interest from Asia. In a field where mistakes are difficult to fix and experience truly matters, Dr. Mancini is exceptional. I would not trust my eyes to anyone else, and I recommend him without hesitation Katja The Surgeon's Surgeon "I had been contemplating having my upper eyelids done for years.

Frequently Asked Questions Everything you need to know before your journey begins. What is an oculoplastic surgeon?

- Hyaluronic Acid Gel Gold-Weight for Paralytic Lagophthalmos | Dr. Ronald Mancini MD, FACS
INNOVATIONS Hyaluronic Acid Gel Gold-Weight for Paralytic Lagophthalmos Functional & Clinical Benefits The Hyaluronic Acid Gel Gold-Weight technique , developed by Dr. Ronald Mancini , is a novel surgical approach used to treat paralytic lagophthalmos , a condition in which patients cannot fully close their eyelids due to facial nerve paralysis. Traditional treatments often involve surgically implanting a small gold weight into the upper eyelid to help gravity close the eye. Dr. Mancini’s innovation uses hyaluronic acid gel as a functional alternative , allowing physicians to temporarily restore eyelid closure while preserving eyelid anatomy and function. This minimally invasive approach can help protect the cornea, improve eye comfort, and reduce complications associated with permanent eyelid implants. The technique was first described in: Mancini R, Taban M, Lowinger A, et al. Use of hyaluronic Acid gel in the management of paralytic lagophthalmos: the hyaluronic Acid gel "gold weight".

- Cyanoacrylate Glue Casting for Periocular Skin Grafts | Dr. Ronald Mancini MD, FACS
INNOVATIONS Cyanoacrylate Glue Casting for Periocular Skin Grafts Functional Benefits Skin grafts and reconstructive flaps are often necessary after eyelid cancer removal, trauma, or reconstructive surgery .

- The J-Curve Technique for Nasolacrimal Surgery | Dr. Ronald Mancini MD, FACS
INNOVATIONS The J-Curve Technique for Nasolacrimal Surgery Functional Benefits The J-Curve technique , developed by Dr. Ronald Mancini , is a surgical method designed to help surgeons safely navigate the nasolacrimal outflow tract , the delicate system responsible for draining tears from the eyes into the nasal cavity. Tear duct obstruction is a common condition that can cause excessive tearing (epiphora), infections, and chronic irritation . Surgical treatment requires careful navigation through a complex anatomical pathway. The J-Curve approach provides surgeons with a more predictable and controlled path through the tear drainage system, improving surgical access while reducing the risk of damage to surrounding tissues. This technique was described in: Sobti D, Walk D, Mancini R. (2016) The J-Curve for Navigating the Nasolacrimal Outflow Tract. Beyond Scars: The Evolution of Ptosis Repair Conjunctiva-Sparing Posterior Ptosis Surgery by Dr. Ronald Mancini, MD.

- Lower Blepharoplasty | Dr. Ronald Mancini MD, FACS
Reduce under-eye bags and rejuvenate your appearance with lower blepharoplasty by board-certified oculoplastic surgeon Dr. Ronald Mancini, MD, FACS. Lower Blepharoplasty Surgery involves rejuvenation of the lower eyelid and cheek region often involving a combination of fat sculpting and repositioning and excess skin removal and/or resurfacing. BEFORE Lower Blepharoplasty Dr. Mancini approaches lower blepharoplasty on an individualized patient basis. Fat sculpting and repositioning are performed with a small hidden incision on the back surface of the eyelid and is often combined with small amounts of skin removal with a small incision camouflaged below the lower eyelid lash line. Resurfacing of the thin eyelid skin with laser or chemical peeling can be performed simultaneously if needed to improve the skin quality. Example : 44yo female before and after lower blepharoplasty with fat transposition LOWER BLEPHORAPLASTY Functional & Aesthetic Benefits Smoother, firmer under-eye contours Reduction in puffiness and "bags" Improved transition between lower eyelid and midface A more rested, youthful appearance Who Should Consider Lower Blepharoplasty? Lower blepharoplasty may be appropriate for individuals who experience under-eye puffiness, hollowing, or loose skin that contributes to a fatigued or aged appearance. Many patients seek this procedure when non-surgical treatments fail to address persistent under-eye bags or deep tear troughs. While it is most commonly performed in patients in their 40s and beyond, younger individuals with hereditary fat herniation or volume loss can also benefit. Ideal candidates are in good general health, do not smoke, and have realistic expectations about the outcomes of surgery. During consultation, Dr. Mancini carefully evaluates each patient’s anatomy, lifestyle, and goals to determine whether lower blepharoplasty is the most appropriate treatment option. Patient Summary At 44, this patient wanted to address under-eye hollowness and tired-looking eyes. She underwent lower blepharoplasty with fat transposition to smooth and restore volume to the under-eye area, creating a more refreshed and youthful appearance. The results enhance her natural features while maintaining her unique expression. Why Choose Dr. Mancini? With dual board‑certification in ophthalmology and oculoplastic surgery, Dr. Mancini brings refined surgical expertise and an aesthetic sensibility to upper‑eyelid rejuvenation.

- Upper Eyelid Approach to Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty | Dr. Ronald Mancini MD, FACS
INNOVATIONS Upper Eyelid Approach to Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty Functional & Aesthetic Benefits Dr. Ronald Mancini pioneered a novel surgical approach to lower eyelid blepharoplasty that utilizes the upper eyelid incision rather than a traditional lower eyelid incision . Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is one of the most commonly performed facial rejuvenation procedures. Traditional techniques typically involve incisions along the lower eyelid. This innovative approach allows surgeons to access the lower eyelid fat compartments through the upper eyelid incision. By doing so, surgeons may reduce visible scarring and preserve delicate lower eyelid structures while still achieving aesthetic rejuvenation of the lower eyelid. This technique was published in: Taban M, Mancini R, Hwang C, Goldberg RA. (2010) Upper Eyelid Approach to Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty. Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. Beyond Scars: The Evolution of Ptosis Repair Conjunctiva-Sparing Posterior Ptosis Surgery by Dr. Ronald Mancini, MD.

REQUEST A CONSULTATION Functional & Aesthetic Benefits • Reduces visible lower eyelid scarring • Allows precise fat repositioning for natural results • Preserves delicate lower eyelid support structures REQUEST A CONSULTATION Who Should Consider This Surgical Technique? Patients seeking lower eyelid rejuvenation, correction of under-eye bags, or smoother eyelid contours may benefit from advanced blepharoplasty techniques. An oculoplastic surgeon such as Dr. Mancini can determine whether this specialized approach is appropriate based on facial anatomy and cosmetic goals. Ready to Enhance Your Natural Beauty?
