What exactly has happened to my eyes and how can I fix it? Be honest (Photo)

Question

Hello friends, I plan making some surgeries soon, so far I am interested a lot in the eye area as I am not sure what exactly has happened to my eyes. This is 10 years ago and now. I am not sure if it is a discoloration issue or a sagging skin issue, but my eyes look super swollen and different. What can be the cause and how can I fix it ? do I need surgery or something else ? Thank you and may you have the greatest day

Difficult to tell from your photos but I think you are bothered by the asymmetry of the upper lids and puffiness of the lower eyelid area. These can both be addressed surgically. The upper eyelid muscles can be adjusted to be more open and more symmetrical. The lower eyelids can be rejuvenated by repositioning the fat in your lower eyelids. Best to see an eyelid expert.

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hello, I hope you are well. I know that 10 years may not seem like a long time, but it is, and in those years many things can happen, you could have lost some sleep, aging has some effects absolutely, you tend to lose or gain fat, you can lose some collagen that can make your skin looks a little saggy, I believe that a blepharoplasty could be the right option for you, to refresh your look, eyes less tired looking, without bags, you will look some years younger.
