Do I need eyelid surgery? (Photo)
Actual RealSelf Patient Comment: Hi, I’m a 32 year old female and my lids have started drooping. It’s not bad toward the middle of my eyes or the inner part, just on the outer edge as pictured. Can you please tell me what I can do to lift this up?
Dr. Persky’s Answer: If your upper eyelids bother you, there are a few choices for treatment. The least invasive would be using a neuro-modulator like Botox to selectively raise your eyebrows a little. A second consideration would be having Ultherapy of the forehead above your brow. Lastly, a skin only excision of the excess upper lid skin would be corrective. Feel free to contact our office for a complimentary virtual consultation. Most important, do your homework and choose your treating physician most carefully based on their experience, skill, knowledge, honesty, and natural artistic vision.
