M24 150+ weight loss and want to wear contacts but insecure about upper eyelid area/ eyes. Any procedures that can help? (photo)

Question

Wanted to know what I can do about uneven eyes and lots of fat in the upper eyelids. Would I be a candidate for upper bleph/eyebrow lift? Any other procedures or treatment options that would help my case?

C. Blake Perry, MD · Answer

The appearance of the eyes depends on the height of the lids, soft tissue surrounding the lids, and the brow position. You would need an in person consultation to determine the best plan to help rejuvenate your eyes. Based on the photos it appears you have mild ptosis of the left upper lid.

James R. Gordon, MD, FACS, FAAO · Answer

Thank you for sharing your question and posting your photos. It appears that you have mild ptosis of both upper eyelids. Lifting the eyelids with surgery would open them wider and help to fill in the area where you have noted fat loss. See an experienced oculoplastic surgeon for proper guidance and treatment. Good luck,

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

For significant improvement, hooded eyelids require surgery if there is enough skin. For nonsurgical treatments: Radiofrequency (Thermage or Venus Legacy/Viva), injectable fillers, and a Botox brow lift can help contour the eyebrows and lift the eyelid skin. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an experienced cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer.
