Am I a candidate for lower eyelid surgery for tired, droopy, bug eyes? (Photo)

Gorgeous64829Jun 24, 2023
I have tired, droopy bug eyes caused by a series of issues (ptosis,bone structure, ecc). I know that for the ptosis i should get ptosis repair and for the bug eyes i should get fillers/fat transfer, but I'm unsure when it comes to the droopy lower eyelid since from what I understand lower eyelid retraction repair is done after botched eyelid surgery. Could i get it anyway? Would it be the right solution and would it look natural? I want to correct the natural downard slope of my eyelids

The blepharoplasty and rhinoplasty surgeries are safely and commonly performed together. I routinely combine the surgeries with excellent results and no complication. If for some reason you did want to stage the procedures, in my opinion they should be separated by a few months. Both surgeries...
