In Dr. Jonathan Pargament's own words

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

Approach

  • I truly love providing solutions that simultaneously improves patients’ vision while enhancing their aesthetic appearance
  • I am passionate about providing the highest level of surgical care in the safest manner possible

Specialization

  • Since then, I have focused my practice solely on aesthetic and reconstructive surgery of the brow and periocular region
  • As an oculoplastic specialist, Dr. Jonathan Pargament frequently fixes patients who have had over-aggressive blepharoplasties due to unappreciated brow ptosis.
  • The most common surgeries I perform are browlifts, upper and lower lid blepharoplasties and skin cancer (MOHS) reconstructions

Technique

  • Dr. Jonathan Pargament commonly utilizes an endoscopic brow lift technique, which involves incisions hidden behind the hairline and does not require the removal of any tissue.
  • Dr. Jonathan Pargament assesses the eyebrow position by considering the entire fat pad, not just where the brow hairs sit, to ensure proper elevation and avoid complications like lagophthalmos.

Training & credentials

  • Following residency, I completed a rigorous 3-year ASOPRS oculofacial plastic and reconstructive surgery fellowship in Salt Lake City, Utah
  • Dr. Jonathan Pargament has experience with cases where, even after a very conservative lid raise, a patient's ocular surface does not compensate, requiring the lid to be lowered again.
  • Dr. Jonathan Pargament's practice, focusing solely on lids and brows with a high volume of cases, develops a unique degree of detail orientation compared to general plastic surgeons.

Consultation

  • Dr. Jonathan Pargament engages patients in a detailed discussion about the risks of worsening dry eye with lid surgery, asking them to weigh potential improvements in superior peripheral vision against the risk of losing central vision quality and comfort.

Safety

  • Dr. Jonathan Pargament informs patients that in his practice, the risk of overcorrection in brow lifts is minimized, with a potential risk of a small undercorrection instead.

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)

$16,589

Payments

34

Compared to peers

Above average

Dr. Jonathan Pargament received $16,589 across 34 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 Amgen Inc..

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?”
