Eyes more natural after blepharoplasty

The shape of the eyelids should not be affected by blepharoplasty. By removing the skin on the eyelids, the eyes can appear bigger (which most people like). However usually over 6 months to a year there is a some reduction of the openness of the eyelids. We would have to know more information such as when your surgery was etc.. to answer more definitively.
