Is there anyway to lessen my hooded eyes? (Photos)

July 16, 2017
Asked By:sapphire7498 in Australia, AU

I was born with this hooded eye shape, I wanted to know if there was anyway to reduce how hooded and droopy they are. I always have my age guessed wrong, people think I'm 5-6 years older than I really am and it bugs me. Also, because of my eye shape, I always look angry or sad, even when I'm not. I consulted with a doctor and he said there was nothing to do as I had a thick brow bone, and any surgery they did perform would produce very little effect. Advice?
