Talking to a board-certified plastic surgeon is the best way to assess whether or not you need eyelid surgery, but there are some general guidelines you can use to determine your eligibility.
You may benefit from blepharoplasty if you’ve noticed that you always look tired or sad, even when you’re well-rested. Other signs that eyelid surgery may be right for you include visible bags below the eyes, upper eyelids that look very heavy, droopy, or full, and/or visible folds or creases around the eyes.
