Do I need a orbital eye bone shaving/reduction and brow lift? Or just temple lift and blefaroplasty? (photos)

Question

Hello. I’m 30 y.o. Please can you advise me on what procedure may help me to achieve more open and cat eye look. My eyes set deep inside my scull and my orbital eye rim is protruding. Which procedure is more suitable for me? Temple brow eye lift and blefaroplasty or I need a orbital eye rim reduction and brow lift. And how safe is bone reduction procedure? Thank you

I would not recommend any bony work for you. You would get an excellent result with Forehead reduction surgery (without a brow lift) and a conservative upper blepharoplasty.

You need none of those procedures, and please do not shave any bone around your orbits. The bone is too delicate for this.
