Answer: Candidate for eyelid surgery? Hi there, Yes, you do appear to be a good candidate for upper and lower eyelid surgery, though an in-person consultation would be important to confirm that. Volume restoration I the midface is also typically something we recommend together with the lower eyelid procedure.Hope that helps and best wishes, Dr. Donath

Answer: Eyelid surgery You appear to be a good candidate for an upper and lower lid blepharoplasty. Your eyebrows are in good position but you do have some excess upper eyelid skin along with bulging fat that can be addressed. Your lower eyelids also show some fullness which could be addressed possibly without an external excision, using a transconjunctival approach. Also you might consider fat grafting to the hollowed area under your cheek to help smooth the cheek junction. Good luck!

Answer: Eyelid Surgery Thank you for your question and sending in your photo. Having upper eyelid surgery which is removing excess skin will definitely improve the appearance so that you can apply nice eye shadows you mentioned. Lower eyelid surgery will restore firmness to the area surrounding the eyes and making you look more rested and alert. I would recommend an in person consultation to go over all your questions and options in more detail.

Answer: Upper and lower eyelid surgery--don't forget to consider adding volume! Thanks for supplying a photo. Upper lid surgery removes excess skin and fat and patients are happy they are able to wear eye shadow--so sounds like the right procedure for you.The lower lids have fat herniation and show significant volume loss in your photo. I would perform lower lid fat removal and fat augmentation with fat harvested from your thighs to prevent a hollowed out look.Fillers like Restylane or Belotero could also be used postop instead, if fat is not performed.

Answer: Upper and lower blepharoplasty candidate Yes it appears you would benefit from upper blepharoplasty and lower blepharoplasty. Very important not to remove fat but rather reposition eye fat to surrounding hollow area to have more smooth long-lasting results.
