18 with Dermatochalasis? (photo)

jmo707
I'm 18 and believe I have dermatochalasis. My eyelids have always been quite droopy and seem to get worse with time. It must be hereditary because my dad and his whole family have very droopy eyelids (my dad had surgery to get this corrected a few years ago). Is dermatochalasis the condition I have? And would I be to young right now for to get a blepharoplasty done? Should I do anything about under my eyes?
