What type of surgery should I get for hollow deep set eyes? (photos)

Question

my eyes are deep set hollow and sunken. Causing them to be dark on my eyelids too , I’m 18 and I’m considering getting a eyelid surgery or some kind because my brown bone is so prominent pushing my eyes back it feels like death . Also not to mention my eyes are quite small and are downturned . I’m looking to achieve a almond eye with a hooded eyelid effect

Hi,

So after looking at your picture there are a number of things that can be done to help you.

First, as you mentioned, you have dark shadowing – especially beneath your eye which can be improved with injectables. An injectable to research is called Ameela which works to brighten the peri-orbital area and this combined with laser treatments can help to improve the pigmentation ten fold.

To achieve an almond shaped eye, there is a procedure called a Canthopexy which is like Blepharoplasty, but works on the inner corner of the eyes to give them this desired shape.

In regards to your brow bone, this could be your anatomy or you could potentially be suffering with tension headaches which make the eyes feel like they are being pushed. So perhaps you should visit your GP to see if this is the case.

Facial Fat Injections could be another option to give you more volume beneath the eyes too which looks natural and lasts a lot longer than filler.
