Brow bone surgery for bigger eyes: would it be the same surgery again? (Photos)

lavielavieMar 30, 2018
Hi! I have always loved my eye shape but I feel my eyes a hidden behind the browbone and also some heavy lids and of possible would love a lift at the corner. I have had a friend who had surgery to get more lid space and deeper set eyes. I already have brow-bone reduction so I'm wondering would it be the same surgery again with the same big incision or could it be done through the eyes like blepharoplasty.I prefer a less invasive route

Thank you for your question. I suggest that you move forward and consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon. You may be a candidate for fillers rather than a surgical procedure.  Best wishes,
