I'va always hated my downturned droopy eyes because they always make me look tired, sleepy and bored. Is there a surgery to make them more upturned or more almond-eye looking like the eyes of the girl I provided in the third picture? Thanks.

Yes, it is possible to have both an upper eyelid
surgery and a septoplasty performed in a single sitting. In fact, this approach
would be the best to maximize your benefits and minimize your recovery. You
will only have to be placed under anesthesia a single time and can take
downtime to recover...
The healing process from lower eyelid surgery depends on several factors. The technique used by the surgeon, the age of the patient and several other factors. It can also vary from patient to patient. Most patients are mildly bruised for 5-10 days.
Generally, I let my patients go outdoors after surgery. I ask them to wear large sunglasses that will cover the eyes. The nice thing about eyelid surgery is that wearing sunglasses can pretty much hide your recovering eyelids.Best of luck with your recovery!
