I'm 22 and caucasian, I'm I eligible for an epicanthoplasty and a blepharoplasty? (photo)

Yes, I would do an upper eyelid anchor technique blepharoplasty combined with a medial epicanthoplasty - I currently prefer the redraping technique which has very little visible scarring. The two procedures are done at the same time. The lower lid area has a groove which I would most likely fat graft.

You may benefit from several procedures including epicanthoplasty, upper blepharoplasty, and eyelid filler injection. Consult with an expert oculoplastic surgeon. Epicanthoplasty best done separately from upper blepharoplasty.

Hello. Thank you for your questions and photos. Yes, you would likely benefit from a blepharoplasty, epicanthoplasty and fat transfer procedure based on photo evidence alone. A blepharoplasty would reduce the excess skin in your upper eyelid and open up your eye. An epicanthoplasty would also help uncover your inner eye folds and open up your eyes further. A fat transfer could help reduce the darkness under your eyes by filling out that area. If the skin itself is darker, an eye cream can help lighten it. Schedule an in-person consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area to discuss these options in greater detail, to receive a full examination and to begin to create a personalized surgical plan. I wish you good health.

Thank you for your photos. A blepharoplasty can help remove the excess skin above your skin causing the hooded appearance. An epicanthoplasty can alter the corner of your eyes. The dark undereye circles may be improved with filler and depends on how much of the darkness is due to shadowing and grooving vs pigment within the skin. Hope this helps!Johnson C. Lee, MD

Hello BubblyBubbie,Yes you could be eligible. It will depend on a number of factors all of which will need to be discussed with your surgeon. Eliminating the epicanthal fold for you is a meticulous procedure which comes with risks. Removing a small amount of skin also has its own risks. The recovery is simple but the final results may take few months. As with any surgery your job is to weigh the risks and the benefits to see if it is worth it. After discussing all the risks you can weigh the benefits. My suggestion is to seek out an expert oculoplastic surgeon to have these discussions.Cheers

a blepharoplasty would work wonders for you.  As for the epicanthoplasty, whomever you see can determine if you truly have an epicanthal fold that could benefit from a procedure there.

Hi and thanks for your question.  Not 100% sure because the pictures are a little blurry but I'd say you do have epicanthal folds and maybe a little excess upper eyelid skin which would make your a candidate for epicanthoplasty and an upper blepharoplasty.  Best to go consult with a surgeon!  Good luck!
