Would a canthopexy and lower blepharoplasty be appropriate in my case?

Question

Hi ! I'm a 20 yo guy and I am really self conscious about my eyes and cheekbones as I'm looking quite tired and unnatractive in that particular area so I was wondering if a canthopexy and lower blepharoplasty would be appropriate to fix my tired look ? I am also thinking about radiesse injections in my jawline to make my face look wider. Best regards

having fillers in your cheek and your lower eyelid will help you to resolve the hollowness under your eyes and make the area look so much improved. surgery is not an good option for you. Cheek implant is an option but these days we can take care of it by filers.

Your eye and cheek area is fine - eyelid surgery and/or canthopexy would be over-operating. You have a nice, youthful face - and probably just need to get a little more sleep. All the best,

If you search hard enough, someone will do whatever you ask.  You do not need a lower blepharoplasty or a canthoplasty.  I think you would benefit from under eye fillers in the form of Restylane.  I personally do not like Radiesse for the simple reason that it can not be adjusted after it is injected if there is an issue.  Instead, I think Perlane, which is a hyaluronic acid filler, is a much better option.  It offers the same volume options, lasts longer, and can be adjusted with enzyme if there is an issue.

I suggest you obtain a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to be examined and discuss options. A likely starting point is to inject fillers into your lower eyelid and upper cheek area. This should improve the hollow under your eyes and give a stronger, more masculine look.

Looking at your pictures, I would actually recommend using Radiesse in your lower lid and cheek area by an experienced surgeon.If it pleases you, when it goes away you can elect to have a more permanent result with fat transfer from an experienced surgeon.Wishing you all the best,Talmage Raine MD FACS
