Which surgeries do I need for an almond eye shape & upward eyebrows tails? (Photos)

Question

Which option is better? Combination of : Upper Blepharoplasty + canthoplasty + direct brow lift(tail) OR combination of temporal lift + cheek lift to change eyes and brows shape??? Or what is the best option for me? I'm 26 y.o.

Do not seek a direct brow lift. The surgery involved a visible incision at the top of the eyebrow and is terribly disfiguring. The surgeon may proclaim their confidence in performing this surgery without making a viable scar, but I see many patients who have had this work with other very qualified surgeons seeking options to revise these disfigure scars at the eye brow. Surgeons simply over estimate their ability to make a scar in a visible location that is acceptable. The temple lift is another disfiguring surgery that is performed by well meaning surgeons. I would not recommend this procedure. You have mild bilateral upper eyelid ptosis with compensatory eyebrow elevation. There appears to be mild lateral canthal disinsertion. Canthal surgery at the time of an anchor blepharoplasty with anterior levator resection ptosis surgery would help reestablish a more open, bright eye. The ptosis repair will allow the upper eyebrows to relax down allowing the muscles at the eyebrows to relax and soften. This would give you a more appealing appearance. While these methods are my standard approach to eyelid surgery, what I am describing is very sophisticated and produces a very natural result. Please be careful what you look for out there. Your eyes can be your best feature.

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hello, first of all, you are not the good candidate of brow lift because the distance of the eyes and brow is too close. Forehead Lift could be the alternative way to upward eyebrows. With the brow lift the distance will be closer than now so we would like to recommend definitely FOREHEAD LIFT (ENDOTINE) + ptosis correction + incisional double eyelid surgery. If you have further questions then please leave the message:) Thank you!

Hello. When I examine your eyes from the photos you uploaded, the combination of eyebrow lift, upper eyelid and canthoplasty will be very sufficient for you to have an almond eye shape. You also have hidden ptosis that you are not aware of. So we can correct that too. Find yourself an experienced facial surgeon. Please check our Instagram account and RealSelf photos. You can get more detailed information about me, ask all questions about your case and sending your photos to my assistants at the number on my profile. You can also book an online consultation and discuss your problems with me. With all respect.
