What kind facelift do I need? (Photo)

July 12, 2024
Asked By:chri312 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

My eyes are slanted downward on both sides naturally and the ‘negative canthal tilt’ trend really brought it to my attention. They give a sad and childish demeanor and I need to know how I can go from this to that. Is it possible? I’m looking for the keyword; I assumed temporal lift but sources say it doesn’t do much to change the eye shape. Id rather not risk reshaping my eyes with canthalplasty resulting in horrendous outcomes. The potential is there I just need it upward. What do I need?
