He then completed his residency in ophthalmology in Loma Linda, CA. and a fellowship in oculoplastic, orbital and reconstructive
surgery at Baylor College of Medicine, Cullen Eye Institute in Houston, TX.
Dr. Van Putten actively participates in continuous education seminars and workshops to stay abreast of the
technical advances in microscopic, laser and cosmetic surgery. He was among the first oculoplastic surgeons to perform blepharoplasty
(the delicate cosmetic surgery commonly referred to as an "eye lift") with UltraPulse Laser technology and is one of very
few surgeons with the ability to remove lower eyelid bags with no skin incision. Dr. Van Putten also offers the most progressive
techniques and equipment available today for both surgical and nonsurgical wrinkle removal and skin rejuvenation of the brow,
face and neck areas.
