I'm 44, considering upper blepharoplasty and trying to understand if I would be a good candidate. The excess skin is down to my lashline and makes me look very tired.
Answer: Eyelid Surgery Hello! Thank you for your question.As far as I can see from your photos you have extra saggy skin above your eyes. For more fresh, young and elegant look I suggest you upper eyelid blepharoplasty. Also you have hollowness under your eyes with the fat injection to under eye area this image can be removed. If you can provide photos with better lighting, from the side of your face and 1 meter away I would be able to make a proper evaluation.Best Regards!

Answer: What you should know about blepharoplasty Thank you for your question and for providing photos. You appear to be a candidate for blepharoplasty to address the excess skin around your eyes. This surgical procedure can redefine the shape of the eyes by removing the excess skin and repositioning fat as needed to create a symmetrical appearance that is harmonious with the rest of your facial features. These steps can provide a long-lasting, youthful, and awake result. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon. They’ll be able to discuss your concern with you and suggest the best approach to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.

Answer: Upper Blepharoplasty Hi Aly, Based on your photos, you would likely benefit from an upper blepharoplasty, which would help to alleviate some of the skin that rests too low. It also looks like you would need a temporal browlift, to help the area to the side of your eye and give your brows more youthful shape. Without the browlift, you may have not have as optimal of a result. Of course whether or not you're a good candidate for surgery is not just your aesthetic appearance but whether you meet health criteria for the surgery and have reasonable expectations around the result. This all is determined in a consultation with a facial plastic surgeon. Hope this helps and best of luck! - Dr. Cabin

Answer: Improving Hooded Eyelids -- Botox/Xeomin/Dysport/Jeuveau for Brow Lift, Fillers, RF (Thermage, Legacy, Viva), Blepharoplasty For significant improvement, hooded eyelids require surgery if there is enough skin. For nonsurgical treatments: Radiofrequency (Thermage or Venus Legacy/Viva), injectable fillers, and a Botox brow lift can help contour the eyebrows and lift the eyelid skin. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an experienced cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer.
