Im 24 Year Old Male and Want to Know if Canthoplasty and Blepharoplasty Would Be I Deal for my Eyes my Droopy Eyes? (photo)

 The upper eyelid ptosis can be repaired to give you a less droopy look.   This is the surgery into which you should look.

Ptosis or drooping of  the upper eyelids has multiple causes. You will need to be assessed by your plastic surgeon. This may even be a medical condition such as myasthenia gravis.

Assuming this is a mechanical problem, this can be corrected surgically using different techniques according to the severity of the condition. There are two different types of muscle that lift the eyelid, and these can be tightened in surgical procedures to elevate the eyelid more effectively. Neither canthoplasty nor regular blepharoplasty would be appropriate on their own. Ptosis correction surgery is often combined with blepharoplasty however.

You may have some issues that can be addressed. You may have some upper eyelid ptosis and you  do show more of the lateral triangle of sclera on the left than the right.  Concerning the lower lid, the surgery may more trouble than it's worth for you.  You may consider upper eyelid correction of potential ptosis. Consult with a BC Oculoplastic surgeon or plastic surgeon for an exam and recommendations.

You have upper eyelid ptosis (droopy) which can definitely be lifted (Ptosis surgery).  You do not need canthoplasty or blepharoplasty.  See an oculoplastic surgeon.

You eye opening is less than ideal and the right side opens less than left. The surgery is called ptosis repair. There are a couple of different approaches to ptosis repair. It's used to open up your eyes more (vertically) and improve the asymmetry between two sides. This the the surgery you should focus on rather than canthoplasty or blepharoplasty.
