I have had hooded eyes my whole life. But now I feel like they have lowered and I can see them in my line of site and feel them when I move my eyes around. Would I be a good candidate for bleph or would I ask need a brow lift?
Answer: Brow lift You are an excellent candidate for a brow lift. A brow lift will raise your eyebrows. At this time, they are below the level of the orbital rim. After the brow lift is done, you may not need a blepharoplasty.

Answer: Eyelid surgery and browlift Upper blepharoplasty removes the extra upper eyelid skin that causes hooding. In patients with low set eyebrows, often a brow lift is performed at the same time as upper eyelid surgery.

Answer: Am I a candidate for eyelid surgery? Based on a photo but without an examination, a combination of a subtle elevation of your low lateral brow and an upper lid blepharoplasty will produce a more natural and better cosmetic result than either one alone. The lateral brow elevation will shorten the length of the scar that is required in the upper lid to correct the hooding of what you describe as "outside the natural eye."

Answer: Hooded eyes From the photos, it appears that the brows are heavy and touching the eyelashes. It is reasonable to try botox in the "crow's feet" and glabellar area to relax the muscles that pull the brow down. At the same time, avoid botox in the forehead since that will allow your brows to relax downward. It is also reasonable to discuss a browlift with a facial plastic surgeon. If you decide to get a trichophytic brow lift, it would be able to bring your hairline down a bit while supporting your brows. Your forehead will appear longer if you decide to get an endoscopic browlift.
