I'm 21 and I find my eyelids to be too hooded, and I look like I have already 40! My mother has the same hooded eye, so as my father. What is the best procedure I can have to get rid of some skin on my eyelid? It is laser a good option? Would you suggest me to wait some years? Thank you
Answer: See an expert in eyelid and facial surgery Thank you for sharing your question, because many patients have your concerns. Eyelids can be hooded at any age. They tend to worsen as we age. From your photographs, it appears that a slight amount of skin could be removed from your upper lids. Make sure to see an oculoplastic surgeon who believes in under correcting the problem, so that you don't look "fake" after the surgery.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Upper lid hooding Provided your examination is in good order you would be an excellent candidate for an upper eyelift. You can consider non surgical methods such as laser but the down time is probably going to be similar. Hooding and eyelid excess is often very much hereditary.

Answer: Eyelid surgery Thank you for your question. Botox would be a non surgical option to try and raise your eyebrow to make the appearance of less heaviness. If you have loose skin and puffiness then surgery would the only option to remove. Extra skin and fat on the upper eyelid can cause the eyes to feel and look tired. Taken to the extreme, the extra skin can hang so much that it can hamper your vision and cause discomfort. If you look tired when you're not, and can’t put eye shadow or mascara due to excess skin covering your eyelids, then you can benefit from upper eyelid lift or Upper Blepharoplasty.

Answer: The Management Of Periorbital Aging Facial aging affects the entire face, but nowhere is it more noticeable than the area around the eyes. Aging of the soft tissue in this area not only makes us look older, but can change how we're perceived. Excess eyelid skin can make us look tired and less energetic, while brow descent can make us look serious and even angry. For these reasons, brow lift and blepharoplasty are commonly requested cosmetic procedures.Your pictures suggest mild brow descent and minimal excess eyelid skin. In someone who's only 21, the risk benefit ratio of surgical correction should be carefully considered. It's essential that the pros and cons of surgical intervention be thoroughly understood. Although surgery could be undertaken to correct your anatomic deformity, it might be better to delay surgery until you're older. For these reasons, it's important to consult a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this area. This surgeon should be able to formulate a treatment plan that addresses your age, anatomic findings and aesthetic goals.
