should I get a blepharoplasty?
hello!
I am 24 years old and am considering an upper blepharoplasty. my eyes are super hooded, my right one being worse than the left (I’m convinced it’s because it’s the side I sleep on).
the first pic is of me with my face fully relaxed. when it’s like this I can see my eyelashes from my right eyelid in my upper peripheral view. the second pic is my face being lifted the way I normally lift it. I have had forehead lines for years now from always lifting my brows. I think constantly lifting my brows (especially in class) is a contributing factor to tension headaches I frequently get. but at the same time, I don’t know if i’m crazy and imaging that I am lifting my brows because of my eyelids.
if I pinch the skin above my eyes and just hold it and it gives me so much relief though. I am often tired as well and I’m thinking it might have to do with the excess skin on top of my eye. lately I have been considering getting an upper blepharoplasty. my eyes have always been like this. I worry the issues I described will get worse with age.
is this normal? part of me feels like maybe it’s just in my head. I don’t know. I have been looking into surgeons in turkey, as that’s the only place i’d be able to afford it. I am also currently living in europe so it’s even more doable. I have read about potentially getting a referral from a doctor if it’s proven to be a medical issue, but I worry that would take too long. I was quoted 1200€ from this one particular surgeon in turkey.
let me know what you think!!! am I crazy?? should I get this surgery?? are there risks doing it in your twenties?? would the doctor remove just skin or fat as well?
thank u for taking the time to read 👍🏻
