Droopy eyes - How do I increase my eye size with a plastic surgery? (photos)

Question

I have double eyelids and I've never had a procedure related to my eyelids. Naturally, I think my eyes are droopy (not saggy but droopy if that make sense. They're firm but are very low. I say I think because I'm not sure if that is the correct term.) Could something like a lateral cantoplasty work? Thank you.

You could be a candidate for upper eyelid surgery. Often skin is removed and the muscle tightened if needed to help open the eyes up. Best to see an eyelid expert in your area to discuss your goals.

These these subtle and complicated issues, there is no substitute for a detailed and in person assessment. You do appear to have upper eyelid ptosis and it may very well be that you have a lateral canthal partial disinsertion that will benefit from lateral canthal surgery. Canthal surgery alone will no fix your issues. Generally re-anchoring the lateral canthus, this pulls on the abnormal eyelid and makes the upper eyelid ptosis a bit worse. For that reason, it is quite common to combine the canthal repair and ptosis surgery during the same surgery. Your eyes can be your best feature.
