I'm afraid that having upper Eyelid surgery will change the look of my eyes, specifically the shape. For example, I don't want round looking eyes.
The upper eyelid shape should not change with surgery. The goals are to remove excess skin and fat thus "opening" the eye and allowing the upper lid to be more visible and not covered by bulky skin. Roundness of the eye should not result from upper eyelid surgery.
The design of skin removal along the upper eyelid should follow your normal anatomy and lid fold position. If this is undertaken as considered, your lids should not change shape and the "round" look should not be a concern. The skin excision will provide a fresher, rested look which is optimal after blepharoplasty.
Hope this helps!
