Hooded eyes and heavy brows at 23. Options to get rid of excess skin and raise brows? (photos)

December 3, 2016
Asked By:toochie in Los Angeles, California

Do I have enough forehead? I was born with hooded eyes and brows that sit low on my face, I know it'll only get worse with age. I've seen recommendations here for people to get a blephoplasty, I'm not sure if I'd need something more. I want excess eyelid removed and brows raised to increase lid area. Do I have enough forehead to work with for this without making it very tiny? What surgeries would I need? I'm also looking into filling my tear trough, something I was born with as well.
