Is 29 too young for an upper eyelid surgery? (photo)

sweetie24
My eyes used to be one of my best features, but in the past few years my upper eyelids started getting all that extra skin, resulting in multiple deep wrinkles above the crease area. It makes my eyes look older than my 29 years of age, and puffy too, and it really bothers me. Looking at my 64 year old mother, who has a similar eye structure, it seems like it's going to get even worse. Is surgery needed in my case, and if so, should it be done at my age or would it be smarter to wait a few years?
