Droopy outer eye corners? What can I do? (photos)

Question

Hello, I'm a 22 year old guy and have droopy outter eye corners that really bothered me for a long time (I always had them). I would like to have them in a more neutral position (Inner corner = outter corner) or slightly higher (outter > inner). Would a Canthoplasty do the job? How predictable are the results and are they lasting?

This is a common problem with men. Lateral hooding of the upper eyelids is usually due to droopy eyebrows. you will benefit from eyebrow ptosis repair.

Hi,

Thanks for posting your question. I am happy to try and help you.

This is not a complex surgery but it would be very altering and people would definitely notice this kind of change. I would strongly encourage you to think about this before undergoing the canthopexy type surgery.

Best wishes,
