Deep crease under eyes when smiling. Would lower blepharoplasty help? (Photo)

Hi Kaseyr,Thanks for your question and your photos. I agree with the majority that botox would help soften the lines but not make them completely go away. Surgery at your age would be too agree and could lead to an outcome that may not improve but worsen your smile. A strip of muscle would need to be cut but that could lead to ectropion which is the white of eyes showing after the operation. Be patient and continue to smile.Botox could improve your outcome. Seek someone with experience in botox for the eyes. good Luck.All the best,Carlos Mata MD, MBA, FACS

No, a lower blepharoplasty is not what you need. Personally, I think your eyes look great when you are smiling. They're expressive. For now, I would advise you to leave things alone. My best,

Hi Kaseyr,Thanks for your question. I think you are much too young to consider a blepharoplasty. I would start with a little low dose Botox under the eyes. If properly performed, this is safe and can be quite effective. It is also a much cheaper option than surgery!Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns!Good luck!
