Am I a good candidate for eyelid surgery? (Photo)

You need an in person examination to determine the proper treatment course to improve your symmetry. Your left brow is slightly higher than your right which is creating asymmetric tarsal platform show. Often this can be improve with neurotoxin to your brows, brow surgery, or eyelid surgery. Best to see an eyelid specialist.

Hello, it looks like there is some brow asymmetry as well as some eyelid skin redundancy that can all be addressed together. Would consider brow surgery combined with an upper blepharoplasty. Please see an experienced oculofacial plastic surgeon for best results.

Based on this photo it does not look that any surgery would help be meaningful since your asymmetry is very mild. Hope this helps.

Thanks for your pictures and questions. Although it is hard to tell from the photos alone and a physical exam would be necessary, you may have a condition called eyelid "ptosis" where the muscles in the eyelids do not function equally on both sides. This needs to be evaluated in detail prior to surgery to be able to come up with an adequate plan for correction. I would advise you to see an oculoplastic surgeon as they are the ones who usually deal with these types of issues. There are several good oculoplastic surgeons in Tampa but I usually refer to Dr. Bill Mack and I will include his link below. Hope this helps!

It looks like you have ptosis on the right side that is causing the asymmetry. That should be addressed by an experienced surgeon in ptosis repair.

All people have facial asymmetry.
For most people, the left eye socket sits higher in the skull and the right side.
This appears true for you as well.
The asymmetry you have is primarily based on bone structure and not soft tissues.
Normal facial asymmetry should not be treated surgically or treated at all.
The human brain is an accustomed to seeing human faces with normal asymmetry as being normal.
Normal facial asymmetry should not be treated surgically or treated at all.
The human brain is a accustomed to seeing human faces with normal asymmetry as being normal.
In fact, looking at computer generated images of perfectly symmetrical faces have an odd unfamiliar appearance.
I don’t think you should attempt to treat this. Attempts at surgical intervention are likely to lead to secondary asymmetry and new problems.
