36 and slight drooping - is there a non-surgical way to tighten eyelids? (Photos)

vashaunJan 7, 2022
I am interested in getting eyelid skin tightened via treatments and not surgery at this time. I'm 36 years old and started noticing my eyelids drooping slightly giving me a hooded eye appearance. My wedding is in 4mo. and I want to look refreshed. I've read about plasma pens, lasers, morpheus8, ultherapy, ect. I'm just not sure what can be used on eyelids. Also, I have very high eyebrows so I don't want to do anything that gives me a 'brow lift' effect. Any suggestions are appreciated

There are several techniques available for correction of epicanthal folds, possibly with upper blepharoplasty; they are all based on "Z" plasty pattern. In person consultation with a board certified plastic or oculoplastic surgeon is recommended. Good luck.
