Sana Ali, MD
Double Board-Certified Ophthalmologist & Oculofacial Plastic Surgeon Specializing in Cosmetic Eye & Facial Surgery in NYC & Westchester County
Dr. Sana Ali is a double board-certified ophthalmologist and fellowship-trained oculofacial plastic surgeon, specializing in cosmetic eyelid surgery, facial aesthetics, and reconstructive eye procedures. She provides advanced surgical and non-surgical treatments at SightMD locations in Manhattan, Harrison, and Yorktown Heights, serving patients across New York City and Westchester County.
Dr. Ali completed her medical education and ophthalmology residency at Albany Medical College in upstate New York, where she developed a strong interest in orbital and oculoplastic surgery. She was drawn to this subspecialty for its unique combination of precision, artistry, and functional restoration. She particularly enjoys working with both adults and children, allowing her to make a meaningful impact through both cosmetic enhancement and functional eye care.
Following her residency, Dr. Ali pursued a highly specialized two-year fellowship in orbital and oculofacial plastic surgery at the University of Pennsylvania and the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. During this time, she trained alongside leading experts in the field, gaining advanced experience in both cosmetic facial surgery and complex reconstructive procedures.
Dr. Ali’s expertise lies in cosmetic eyelid and facial surgery, including blepharoplasty (upper and lower eyelid surgery), brow lift surgery, ptosis (droopy eyelid) repair, lip lifts, and midface/cheek lift procedures. She is also highly skilled in non-surgical facial rejuvenation, offering treatments such as Botox®, dermal fillers, laser treatments, and brow contouring to address concerns including eyelid bags, dark circles, wrinkles, facial scars, and other signs of aging.
In addition to cosmetic procedures, Dr. Ali performs a wide range of functional and reconstructive surgeries, including lacrimal (tear duct) surgery such as dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR), orbital surgery for thyroid eye disease, and tumor biopsy procedures. She also has a special interest in eyelid and facial reconstruction following Mohs surgery, a focus she explored extensively during her fellowship training.
Dr. Ali is known for her thoughtful, patient-centered approach, combining surgical precision with an artistic eye to deliver natural-looking results. She works closely with each patient to understand their goals and develop personalized treatment plans that enhance both appearance and function. Outside of her professional life, Dr. Ali enjoys traveling, running, fishing, and fencing.
Practicing in Manhattan, Harrison, and Yorktown Heights, Dr. Ali provides expert cosmetic eye surgery, facial rejuvenation, injectable treatments, and oculofacial plastic surgery to patients throughout New York City and Westchester County, New York.
