Am I a Candidate for Upper Blepharoplasty ?

Hi, I am a 26 yr old who always seems to have puffy eyes. I have considered Blepharoplasty surgery in the past and am now considering it again. I used to think I needed it for the upper and bottom, but now I'm not sure. I feel like I always look tired, especially without make up on. Is Upper Blepharoplasty right for me? What other treatments would help? I've always feel like I look tired and it's hard to look at people in the eyes because i'm self conscience about them. Eyebags run in my family. Help.

Blepharoplasty for tired eyes

Thanks for your question - An upper lid blepharoplasty may be indicated in your case. Looking at your photograph you have some upper lid asymmetry with the right upper lid having more skin than the left. An upper lid bleph could be a quick way to give you a more refreshed look. A lower lid bleph would address the tear trough area but you may wish to wait on this until the area is worse. As always our opinions are no substitute for a visit to your doctor. Be sure to find a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss these issues. I hope this helps.
