Would a blepharoplasty make my eyes look better or worse?

Question

Johnny Mao, MD, FACS · Answer

What exactly do you dislike about your eyes?  The upper creases are even, the shape is almond, there is not a lot of loose skin, your brows have a nice shape and appropriate height.  I can't really see your lower eyelid region. But based on what I see, I think they look attractive and don't let any one tell you otherwise.

Jeffrey M. Darrow, MD · Answer

Your eyelids look excellent, with symmetry and youthful fullness.  Whether a upper blepharolasty would improve this could only be determined in a face to face consultation where you could express what you would like to achieve and your plastic surgeon could tell you whether it could be accomplished.  See a board certified plastic surgeon for a detailed consult.

In my opinion, your eyes are beautiful. They are nearly perfect. If you feel you have too much fullness in the upper lids, then an evaluation by a specialist is needed to determine if you would benefit from an upper blepharoplasty. You certainly don't appear to have overly low set brows, but you do have a very small amount of excess skin in the upper lids causing a small amount of coverage of the upper lid skin above the lashes. A blepharoplasty can be easily performed in the office to correct this, and downtime is usually only a few days. Seek someone that specializes in the eyes and face.Andrew Campbell, M.D.Facial Plastic SpecialistQuintessa Aesthetic Centers

Thanks for your question.Blepharoplasty is an excellent procedure for decreasing the amount of excess skin and and puffiness in the upper lid.  The scars also heal quite well and are frequently difficult to see.  After a complete examination, you plastic surgeon can tell you for sure, but removal of just the right amount of skin can produce very pleasing results.Best wishes!Regards,

The eyes look much better when upper eyelid blepharoplasty increases the amount of the visible upper lid skin. This allows for more eye shadow that can be applied and the eyes look bigger as well. The key is conservative surgery that is not over done. RegardsDr. Janjua
