Will upper eyelid blepharoplasty make my eyes look bigger? (photos)

As commonly practiced, blepharoplasty surgeons often aggressively remove the upper eyelid fold. It is not your enemy. You need at "hood." Removing it surgically will skeletonize your upper eyelids and make them look older. The absence of an upper eyelid fold reduces the signal to the forehead that stimulated the frontalis muscle to raise the eyebrows.  That means that after this type of aggressive surgery, the eyebrows often fall. Predisposed eyelid can also become droopy after this type of simple upper blepharoplasty. This is probably ground that your eyelid surgeon has already covered with you. If not, you might want to discuss these concerns before having surgery.

From your photos, you do not appear to have agreat deal of hooding, as you have noted. The lid margins are in a normal position, and the amount of scleral show ( how much "white " is showing, is quite normal and youthful. Upper eyelid blepharoplasty , while removing the excess hooding and making the eyelid more defined, will not affect any of the above , or make the eye look bigger.

Great question. In general, upper eyelid blepharoplasty is designed to remove excess skin and improve contour. Patients with droopy eyelids usually undergo a different procedure called ptosis repair. The other consideration is a patient with a heavy brow. This can be from a variety of reasons including excess supraorbital fat or lacrimal gland hypertrophy/prolapse, as well as brow sagging (ptosis). As others have said, upper blepharoplasty alone will not generally make your eyes look bigger. Warm regards.
