My eyes seem to be too pushed forward? Or, is my forehead too flat/receded? (Photos)

Question

So my face structure is sort of weird to begin with, my jawline is really uneven and my mouth is kind of pushed forward. This makes my head look kind of like a pear since the top of my head is really small and flat. In relation to my browbone, my eyes seem to be protruding too much... and when I look up/sideways I can always feel skin around my eyes strained/strange and it's annoying and uncomfortable. What procedures are there to correct this and to correct the overall balance in my face?

You likely have inherited shallow orbits and poor maxilla support with relative bulging eyes. See following link on procedure to improve this problem. I have published on this treatment and you will find the link on the page too. Personal consultation is necessary. Skype consult available.

Hi there. Don't be too harsh on yourself. I would would encourage you to take the time and visit a board certified plastic surgeon in person to discuss your options to enhance your facial features.  It is hard to evaluate by looking at half-photos.  There are many procedures, surgically and non-surgically, that may help address your needs. Best wishes!

Your entire face is not visible so it becomes difficult to imagine your description.  As to the eyes, you do have some excess folding skin that can be conservatively removed.  Additionally some filler in you malar area can give more definition to your face and make the eyes less prominent !

Morning.  You're normal, just a variation of it.  Your eyes are shallow set and the tip of the eyeball is even with or even in front of the brow bone creating a prominent look to the eyes.  Surgery form some thing like this includes orbital decompression (which you should not consider, it's too risky for little change) and maybe fat grafting of the temples, brow, and forehead to de-emphasize the eyes themselves.  Finally you can get a very low Asian blepharoplasty to create on smooth crease using anchoring technique.  This should be very conservative.We can't see the rest of your face.Chase Lay MDAsian facial plastics specialist
