I'm 39 and have almond eyes and some positive canthal tilt. I have high broad cheekbones and prominent brow ridge. My eyes have become more hooded with the years but doesn't bother me as I read is a good feature in men. My concern is lower eyelid. I've always had dark circles probably from genetics and allergy. I wanted to know if I would see an improvement from blepharoplasty or is not worth it in my case. I barely have fine lines I think

Answer: Brow lift and upper and/or lower blepharoplasty
You are a great candidate for lower lid blepharoplasty with fat transposition. This surgery moves your natural fat to fill the tear trough and remove the “bag.” You also have ptosis of the left upper lid that needs to be addressed to restore symmetry. Best to see an eyelid expert.
The eyebrow and the eyelid are two separate units and should be treated as such. Eyelid surgery may change the shape and appearance of your eyelid but should not alter the position or appearance of the eyebrow. If possible, I would consider waiting on your eyebrow tattoo until after your surgery...
You are a great candidate for lower lid blepharoplasty with fat transposition. This surgery utilizes an incision on the back of the lid and moves your natural fat to fill the tear trough hollow. No skin would be removed; just the addition of natural volume. Best to see an eyelid expert.
