General information: Male, 32 years of age. I was told I had thick skin around my nose area. I would like to reduce the 'wrinkle' space of both eyes that lead towards the nose/middle of the face for better eye form. I have attached pictures (front/side) for better understanding. Is this procedure feasable through surgery?

The diagnosis for low eyebrow position would be 'eyebrow ptosis'. Usually, the eyebrow moves down due to the aging process or many people are born with low eyebrow position. Functionally, if your eyebrow is too low, you feel heavy when you open your eyes. Aesthetically, you may look a bit angry...
Ptosis is always a bilateral problem unless it is the result of trauma. You need to see a plastic or ophthalmic plastic surgeon who specializes in treatment of ptosis and does a significant number weekly.
You are referring to the combination of a lateral canthoplasty combined with a temporal browlift suregry to create an upward sweep to the side of the eyes.
