My eyelids become bigger on the inner parts of my eyes, I don't like how this makes my eyes look. I wish they were more hooded on the inner corners. I have included a photo of my eye how it looks now, and then another photo where I've kinda drawn in the crease so you can see how I would want it to look a bit more like. Thank you

Answer: Hollow upper eyelid You have what we call a deep superior sulcus. You will notice that the medial lid is hollow and the crease rides up under the bone. This is because you don't have much fat there. Sometimes this may occur after an upper eyelid surgery where fat is removed. Other times it is an aging change, or has been present all your life. You can try adding HA filler to this area. Adding volume will decrease the hollow appearance and push the crease down. This is an advanced technique, so see someone who does it regularly.

Answer: Correction of Reduced Hooding of the Medial Upper Eyelid I agree with Dr. Martin. The reason you do not like the look is that the normal aesthetic is when a line drawn from the pupil through the height of the upper lid crease to the height of the arch of the brow is a nice smooth curve. Since your upper eyelid crease is highest medially and the eyebrow is highest laterally this creates the look that you do not like. The best way to deal with this is to add volume medially with either a filler or fat. I prefer fat but have used filler very successfully. I also agree that you need someone who is significantly expert in this and does it frequently. Most injectors are not capable of dealing with this problem.
