What can be done to correct symmetry and hooding? 21 y/o female (photos)

Your photographs are very limited. However, you may benefit from brow lift. This will lower your hairline, decrease the vertical height of the forehead and pull up the eyebrows. This will make you look younger and more awake.

Hello! My name is Jessica, I am a physician assistant, and one of the providers at Aesthetic Skin in Winnetka and Chicago. This is a great question. Given your concerns about eye appearance, including asymmetry, hooding, spacing, and a potentially lazy eye, there are several cosmetic procedures and considerations that might help address these issues. Hooded eyelids, where excess skin folds over the upper eyelid, can make the eyes appear smaller and affect makeup application. Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a common procedure to remove excess skin and fat from the upper eyelids, which can help create a more open and youthful appearance. This procedure can also improve symmetry and enhance the overall look of your eyes. Eye asymmetry and spacing can be challenging to address, but there are options available. For minor asymmetries, cosmetic fillers or Botox can sometimes be used to balance the appearance of the eyes by adding volume or adjusting the brow position. In more significant cases, surgical options like a brow lift can reposition the eyebrows to create a more balanced and symmetrical look. If the spacing between the eyes is a concern, procedures like canthoplasty (eye corner surgery) might be considered to adjust the lateral canthus and improve alignment. If you prefer non-surgical options or want to complement surgical treatments, cosmetic injections such as Botox or dermal fillers can help improve the appearance of the eyes. Botox can be used to lift the brow and smooth out any lines around the eyes, while fillers can address volume loss and contouring issues. Laser treatments can also help with skin texture and pigmentation around the eyes. I hope this helps and best of luck!

Thank you for your question. Considering your photos my recommendation will not be an upper eyelid surgery. Lateral brow lifting (temporal lift) and lower eyelid blepharoplasty (transconjuctival) and fat improve your appearance. Best Luck!
