I am looking into getting botox at the corner of my eyes. I am 29 and have heavy folds at when I laugh. Would botox help alleviate this? Thank you.
Answer: How to treat creases around the eyes: Know your treatment options Thank you for your question. You may benefit from an upper blepharoplasty, also known as an upper eye lift. This surgical procedure may reduce drooping, hooding, and skin laxity in this area to produce a more refreshed appearance while also reducing wrinkles around the eyes. It's possible that treatment with Botox Cosmetic would be suggested alongside surgery to maximize your results. I recommend that you schedule an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon who can assess your needs and help you decide the best course of action in addressing your concerns.

Answer: Eyelid lift option I see why you might be interested in botox as a way to address additional tissue of the upper eye, but unfortunately the way this injected medication works is to decrease nerve and muscle function for wrinkles moreso than to eliminate extra tissue. If you are interested in removing excess skin, then an upper lip blepharoplasty is really what you probably want to receive a consult for.

Answer: Heavy eyelids To address your concerns, Botox can be used to help elevate the brow conservatively. This would make the upper lids appear less heavy. To directly correct your concern you can consider an upper blepharoplasty which would remove excess skin from the upper lids. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.
