Welcome to Our Practice

Welcome to Aesthetic Eye & Surgical Arts

I believe excellent care begins by listening carefully to what brings you to our office. From there, my responsibility is to make the right diagnosis, explain your options clearly, and recommend treatment that is appropriate for you—not simply a procedure.

Whether you are considering cosmetic eyelid surgery, seeking treatment for an eyelid condition, or facing skin cancer and reconstruction, you can expect thoughtful evaluation, individualized recommendations, and meticulous attention to both function and appearance.

Most of the surgeries I perform are completed here in our office. For many patients, this provides a more personal and familiar surgical experience without routinely requiring a separate surgery center. When a different surgical setting is appropriate, we will discuss that with you.

My staff and I want you to feel comfortable asking questions and to understand what to expect before, during, and after treatment. We look forward to welcoming you to our practice.

Understanding Reconstruction

The repair may extend beyond the visible defect

After a skin cancer is removed, the final defect may be larger than the original visible lesion. Reconstruction often uses nearby tissue to restore contour, function, and appearance.

Patient Reviews

What Patients Are Saying

★★★★★

“I would give 10 stars if possible. From the initial phone call through the final visit, everything and everyone is top notch. Dr. Brannan is the physician all wish every physician would be. He exceeds expectations in expertise and ability. Additionally, Dr. Brannan is very kind.

My goal for my upper and lower eyelid surgery was to have a fresh appearance. I did not want to look vastly different. Dr. Brannan’s skill gave me exactly wanted I wanted, and my expectations were met and surpassed. I am thrilled with the result.

The front desk ladies are amazing along with the nurses and PA. All physician offices should strive for the standard achieved in this practice.”

“Recently I had upper lid blepharoplasty by Dr Brannan because my lids were so droopy I couldn't see and I couldn't be happier with the results. I had minimal bruising and now, three weeks later, even people who know me cannot see the swelling - all they see is that I have eyes again! Dr. Brannan has an artist's touch and the procedure was quick and painless.The staff is wonderful and every single time I was in the office I was taken early for my appointment. Dr. Brannan and his staff are the best!”

“I just loved the minute I entered the office! The receptionist is exceptional when providing information and feedback. She was warm, caring and concerned about your needs. Dr. Paul Brannan was very professional and knowledgeable. I really was very comfortable during his diagnostic and felt that I am in good hands. I had the recommendation from another client in which Dr. Brannan did an exceptional job with her eyes. I am really looking forward to my surgery and I have no doubt its going to be a great success. It takes an hour drive to his office but every minute has been worth my time.

! El servicio del Dr. Brannan es excepcional! El Doctor Paul Brannan es genial y le explicara muy bien el proceso necesario para operarle los ojos. Las recepcionista es muy amable y le ayudara con todo los papeles y los servicios que rinde el Dr. Paul Brannan. Si usted necesita un especialista de los ojos, usted estara en muy buena manos. El is muy sabio en su area medica.”
