25 years old- early candidate for upper & lower blepharoplasty? (Photo)

January 15, 2015
Asked By:Asiletse in Toronto, ON

I've had eye bags for quite some time now, and they've been getting noticeably worse recently. They are certainly genetic as my dad and grandmother both had them quite prominently. I also get a far amount of puffiness and water retention. 25 seems young though- is it a better idea to wait or would it be more beneficial in the long run to remove now? Also will blepharoplasty affect, positively or negatively, water retention? Bags are noticeably worse and scrunched up smiling. Thank you
