I have heavy eyelids and in pictures it looks like I'm about to blink. Is surgery necessary to fix this? I am 31 years old.
Answer: Heavy eyelids.
Heavy eyelids can be from many causes. As a professional, I only can make a judgement that is correct from better photos--otherwise it is just a guessing game and not in your best interest. Send photos with relaxed both eyes from the front.

Answer: Heavy eyelids
The picture submitted is helpful, but a non animated photo would also help. It seems you would benefit from an upper blepharoplasty. Best to consult a Board Certified PS in your area to examine you and determine what is best in your case.
Kind regards,

Answer: Heavy Eyelids. In Picture It Looks Like I'm About to Blink. What Can I Do?
Based upon the side type or oblique facial animated view I would recommend an upper lid blepharoplasty. This can improve the excess skin and fat of your upper lids. Best to seek a few in person evaluations from boarded PSs in your area.

Answer: Treatment option for heavy eyelids
Heavy eyelids are typically the result of excess skin and fat on the upper lids. Brow position also determines the amount of hooding that is present. If extra skin is present and is touching the eyelashes, an upper blepharoplasty would be the best choice.

Answer: Heavy Eyelids: Upper Eyelift Surgery vs. Ptosis Surgery
As a board certified Oculofacial Cosmetic Surgeon practicing in New York, I can say based on your description that you either have excess skin on/above your upper eyelid OR weak levator muscles of your eyelids (ptosis). Pictures would better help, but you must consult with a qualified surgeon who can best determine what kind of blepharoplasty candidate you are: upper eyelift surgery OR ptosis surgery.
