Question

i'd like to lower my eyelid crease as currently the one i have isn't aesthetically pleasing to me, is it possible to make my eyelids seem like the ones of this model?

Jose Perez-Gurri, MD, FACS · Answer

Hi. What is aesthetically pleasing? Isn't beauty is the eye of the beholder? You may not be happy and that's a different issue. I suggest you seek the opinion of an occuloplastic surgeon. Good luck.Dr. PG

There are many reasons for the position of the upper eyelid crease and most of these have to do with the attachment of the muscles responsible for opening in eyelids.The crease can be adjusted depending on the cause of the higher crease. It is a specialized procedure so please see an expert in eyelid procedures.Best regards and I hope this helps, Dr. Sapijaszko

The eyelid crease is affected by upper eyelid position and fullness. If there is ptosis, then ptosis surgery can lower the crease. Another option is filler injection. I cannot tell you from the photos what the exact problem is and what you should. Need proper consultation.

You can have your crease lowered as part of a standard eyelid lift or blepharoplasty.  See a board-certified plastic or occuloplastic surgeon in your area.  Good luck.

Yes, it is possible to lower the eyelid crease. Be sure to seek evaluation by an oculoplastic surgeon for an accurate diagnosis as you might have ptosis. The lid crease incision should be carefully planned if you wish to lower the crease. Also, the skin of the eyelid fold will affect the appearance of the crease. Be very specific with your questions and get the details of the surgical plan prior to having the surgery. Best wishes.
