Hello! Thank you for your question.As far as I can see from yoır photos you have extra saggy skin both under and above your eyes. For make more fresh, young looking I suggest upper and lower eyelid blepharoplasty. If you can provide photos with better lighting, from the side of your face and 1 meter away I would be able to make a proper evaluation.Best Regards!

I suggest following up with your physician. If you have existing ptosis, neuromodulators (such as Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, and Jeuveau) could potentially worsen your condition. Regardless, the effects of these products will diminish in 6 to 12 months, so it should all resolve in time. Best, Dr. Emer.

Dr. T recommends first treating any eyebrow unevenness, with neurotoxins. 
After treating that, if necessary, he recommends doing CO2 laser treatment to help lift the eyelid, for your mild ptosis. For your age, he doesn't feel surgery is necessary.

Yes it appears you have asymmetric upper eyelid ptosis. See an oculoplastic surgeon for evaluation and treatment.

Soon-Dong Kim, MD · Answer

It seems that you have asymmetry eyes because of your asymmetry bone structure. As you can see from your photos, the height of eyebrows and eyes are different. What we can fix the the asymmetry eyebrows, only FOREHEAD LIFT (ENDOTINE) can fix it. Also you need full incisional double eyelid + ptosis correction to correct your minor ptosis and make your eyes bigger and fresh. If you have further questions then please leave a message:) Thank you
