In Dr. Flora Levin's own words

How Dr. Flora Levin describes their own approach, from their Instagram posts. Each statement links to the original.

Approach

  • Dr. Flora Levin prefers to ensure a "clean slate" by having filler dissolved before performing a lower blepharoplasty.
  • Recognition, understanding, and technique are the pillars of aesthetic surgery, and they are important in that specific order.
  • Dr. Flora Levin does not recommend threads, especially near the eyes, because their short-lived results do not justify the cost.
  • Dr. Flora Levin's philosophy is that good plastic surgery is unnoticeable.

Specialization

  • Specializes in Blepharoplasty & Browlift

Technique

  • Dr. Flora Levin's practice often combines fat grafting with a lower blepharoplasty to enhance mid-face appearance.
  • Dr. Flora Levin makes small targeted corrections to multiple aging factors to achieve the most natural results.
  • Dr. Flora Levin's practice ensures Botox has worn off before surgery because the markings made for skin removal are affected by brow position.
  • Dr. Flora Levin does not use permanent, non-dissolvable, or non-hyaluronic acid fillers near the eyes due to safety concerns.

Consultation

  • Dr. Flora Levin's practice recommends that patients come in for an upper blepharoplasty consultation without any active Botox in their forehead.

Recovery guidance

  • Dr. Flora Levin recommends dissolving any potential residual filler prior to lower blepharoplasty surgery, noting that it may require a couple of sessions.
  • Dr. Flora Levin's practice recommends not getting Botox for three to four months prior to an upper blepharoplasty consultation and especially before surgery.

About

Dr. Flora Levin, MD, FACS, is an oculoplastic surgeon practicing in Westport, Connecticut, and is board certified in Ophthalmology. She is also specifically board certified in Blepharoplasty & Browlift. Her approach to aesthetic surgery is founded on three pillars: recognition, understanding, and technique, emphasized in that specific order. Dr. Levin aims for natural results by first understanding the underlying anatomical changes that contribute to a patient's "heavy," "tired," or "hooded" appearance. She highlights the significant impact of procedures like outer brow reset and ptosis repair on cosmetic outcomes, even though patients may not frequently request them. Dr. Levin explains that failing to recognize or correct outer eyelid hooding or ptosis can leave patients still looking tired. She performs ptosis repair by tightening the eyelid muscle to open the eye, noting it is "scarless" as the incision is hidden inside the upper eyelid. Similarly, scars from outer brow reset, which lifts the lateral part of the eyebrow, are hidden in the scalp. She also offers procedures such as dermal fillers, eyelid surgery, and browlifts, with final surgical results typically visible at 4-6 months.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2025)

$9,177

Payments

8

Compared to peers

Above average

Dr. Flora Levin received $9,177 across 8 payments in 2025. That is higher than about 89% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as compensation for services other than consulting, including serving as faculty or as a speaker at a venue other than a continuing education program, and the largest single payer was Galderma Laboratories, L.P..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
