Asked By:Karina_Milan in Czech Republic, CZ

Hi,I'm 27 years old.All my life I have hooded,droopy eyes.So I have to apply make up each day,to make it more open and bigger.Also have this habit to pull my brows up,and now I have bad wrinkle on my forehead.Now I decided to make operation,would like to have almond shaped eyes,pull the corners up a little bit and make it bigger.I live in Czech Rep.at least need to explain what procedure exactly I need,but I'm confused what it should be blefaroplasty or canthopexy?Please advice me.
