Eye asymmetry - is this treatable/correctable? (Photo)

Graceful33408Jun 7, 2023

I think I have some sort of eye asymmetry. It’s like one eye looks larger than the other. And as if I have a bit of cross eye? I can’t tell if one eye looks smaller because the one eyelid is droopier. Exactly what is going on here with me? Please help! Is this treatable/correctable? What would be the procedure like? I’ve been really conscious about this lately.

Hi there, I would reccomend another upper blepharoplasty. You should see a board certified plastic surgeon for consultation and an in-person eye examination to be sure you are a good candidate. Best of luck!

As we age, our eyelids naturally sag and droop. A combination approach would be best to see visible improvement. In terms of non-surgical treatment options, I would recommend a Chemical Brow Lift (using Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, or Jeuveau) and filler injections to rejuvenate the temples, eyebrow,...

You need to wait at least a full year from your initial surgery but through a transcontival approach it should be possible to remove the excess fat. Some fat grafting g might be necessary. Repositioning fat has limited flexibility in terms of the position of the fat.

Your medial brows are very low. I would recommend a brow lift to address the brow position you have. This can correct some of the excess skin in your upper lids. A revision of the facial scars can also be done in due course.

The gold standard is transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty (with eye fat bags repositioning). Fat injection is unpredictable. See an expert.
