I went to see a PS that only works on the eyes. He suggested I have a left brow tack to fix excess skin above left eye and a lower bilateral blepharoplasty. Do you think this is an appropriate route? Why not a brow lift? Will this fix the loose skin under my eye?

Answer: Many ways to get the look you desire Thank you for the question. I prefer the endoscopic browlift , as it can keep the brow shape while elevating the brow as a unit to prevent lateral peaking of the brow. After this is done and things have settled a bit, a conservative upper lid bleph may be needed. It appears you have minimal fat pads of your lowers, but more photos are needed to completely assess.

Answer: Not likely you appear fairly young with some excess skin of your upper eyelids, left more than right. The Brow tack you are referring to is likely to be used to perform a brow lift but elevating the brow and "tacking" the skin up to it. This can work to raise the brow, will stretch out some of the loose skin, but not likely all of it. As for the lowers, it doesn't appear you have large/proptotic fat pads, so I am not sure exactly what you or he is trying to accomplish with a lower bleph. Maybe the picture is misleading, my suggestion, find another couple surgeons to have an in person consultation, maybe this so called expert of the eyes really isn't that.
