Drooping eyelids options? How much would it cost? (Photo)

Your eyelids are NOT droopy (meaning they do not obstruct your pupil / vision), but you do have excessive skin of the upper eyelids, and this can be treated with blepharoplasty surgery.  Costs of plastic surgery depend on the location, how expensive your area is in general, and also the reputation and experience of your plastic surgeon.  You can call a few surgeon offices in the area, and most should be able to give you a cost estimate (or a reasonable range) for what you're looking for.  Be sure to discuss your goals and concerns with your board certified plastic surgeon and consider the pros and the cons. Be certain your surgeon is properly certified.  I've attached a link where you can start your search.  In our practice, the cost is $4500 when done in our office suites, but if you choose to have full anesthesia for it (totally asleep), it adds about $1100.

Thanks for your question!
You're young which is to your advantage. You have what I like to refer to as "full upper eyelids." This means that there is some fat behind the skin that makes this look this way. This fat as well as some skin can be removed to give you a nice contour and open your upper eyes. After this, your eye shadow will be much more noticeable and you shouldn't have to lift up your skin! 
Hope this helps and God Bless!

Hello and thank you for your question.  The
best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation.  With that
being said, based on your photographs, the best shape and contour could be
achieved with an upper eyelid blepharoplasty.  Cost varies based on geographic region and surgeon expertise.   Make sure you specifically look
at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery
performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results.   The most
important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend
that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who
can evaluate you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.

You have some extra skin on the upper lids that could be trimmed with a surgery.   Botox to the outer bow would also help to open up the lateral area, and will last about 3-4 months.  

You are correct!  It would be a no brainer that upper eyelid surgery would address the problem but it will also have a much better result than any non surgical alternative, including Botox injections, could provide you.  Upper eyelid surgery is safe and the recovery is relatively easy and I feel provides excellent return on your investment.  Good Luck!

looking at the photos it appears like you have some fullness to your upper lids, although not an excessive amount of skin. botox can help to lift and reshape the brows and can elevate some of the tissue off you lids, but as you noted, it is not a permanent fix. blepharoplasty surgery is not 'permanent' either, but the results could be expected to last 8-10 years. surgery can be done in the office or with some amount of anesthesia and that changes the cost of things. 
i'd be happy to see you in my office and we can discuss the particulars of your case

An upper blepharoplasty can accomplish improvement of the drooping eyelids by removal of the excess skin and a small amount of fat creating the hooded look. The procedure can be performed under either local or general anesthesia, so the price could be different depending upon which level of anesthesia the patient desires. For many examples and our current price list, please see link and the video below

I agree upper lid blepharoplasty surgery would be a great option for you.  When patients are in their 30's I usually warn them that they may want repeat surgery 10 - 15 years later.  The brows continue to settle downward due to gravity and thus some redundant skin will gather over time.  If you wait to have surgery until you are in your 40s it is most likely to last indefinitely.  In your area I believe this surgery ranges from 3500- 4000 dollars. Hope this is helpful and best of luck.

This is a great question.  There are both surgical and nonsurgical options for this.  I would recommend discussing these options with an eyelid specialist to see both the costs and best option for you.

Hooding and excess skin of the eyelids can be reduced through an upper blepharoplasty surgery.  This procedure can be performed under local anesthetic, and removes the excess skin with a thin incision that falls in the natural fold of your eyelid.  To better assess the extent of your hooding eyelids and discuss in detail the upper blepharoplasty procedure, come in for an in person consult.
