I am 42 and my upper eyelids are getting more and more droopy. One is much worse than the other. Do you think an eyelid lift or Ultherapy would help me?
Answer: Whether to do a blepharoplasty or Ultherapy. Avoid a hollowed eye. Ultherapy is unlikely to be of significant benefit. It's important to have an in person consultation with a qualified surgeon. Many patients who desire upper lid blepharoplasty should be mindful that fullness around the eye (periorbita) can give a youthful appearance. A blepharoplasty performed in the wrong patient can skeletonize and hollow the periorbital region, which can make a patient look more aged. When blepharoplasty is indicated some surgeons try to avoid a hollowed look by removing only upper lid skin and not muscle. Some surgeons will use fat graft or filler along the brow to restore fullness to the brow area. Consultation with your surgeon will help determine which treatments are right for you.

Answer: Upper eyelid lift vs browlift to improve the appearance of the eye The decision point for you is if a browlift procedure or upper eyelid lift - or both - would produce the best cosmetic result. This decision requires a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Eyelid Lift or Ulthera I think you are young enough to try noninvasive procedures. My process for eyelid rejuvenation is thermage of the eyes/brow/forehead, botox of the crows feet and eyebrow, filler to the brow to give it lift, and fraxel or clear and brilliant with PRP for textural improvement. All of some of these can really help to lift the eyelids and improve the apperance of the skin and eyes -- making you look and feel more attractive! Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Upper blepharoplasty is the answer Looking at your photos, you are a good candidate for upper blepharoplasty. Ultherapy only tones the skin. It does not do what surgery does for the upper eyelids. See before/after photos of upper blepharoplasty for better understanding.

Answer: Droopy brows=forehead lift! Droopy brows=forehead lift! Do not waste your money on other things. If your hairline is high it can be lowered at the same time as your brow lift, This is done with a procedure we developed 35 years ago, The Irregular Trichophytic Forehead lift.
