Can upper blepharoplasty increase the size of my upper lid space, on my already creased asian eyes? (photos)

Asked By:grace227 in Tacoma, WA

I am half Korean, with an already existing lid crease. When my eyes aren't puffy, the area bellow the crease is completely swallowed up by the overhanging skin. When my eyes are puffy, my eyelid space increases and my eyes look much bigger. My face looks nicer when this happens. If my understanding is correct, upper blepharoplasty can lessen the skin hanging down that covers my lid. Can it also increase the size of lid, below the crease, maybe by moving my eyelid crease a bit higher somehow?
