Hello, This 'bowing' of the lower eyelids can been seen after lower eyelid blepharoplasty.

Sep 15, 2011

It is common to inject Botox as a chemical brow lift. The goal is to weaken the brow depressors (muscles that pull your brow down). This injection point is close to the eyelid and to the muscles that raise your eyelid. If these muscles are affected by the Botox, you can develop a temporary droopy eyelid. I would hold on additional Botox and speak with your injector about an eyedrop (iopidine, or similar) that will help raise the lid until the Botox wears off.

Recommendation for Blepharoplasty?

If you prefer the more open appearance of the second photograph, then you should see an oculoplastic surgeon in your area. Ptosis surgery alone (without blepharoplasty) would give you the opportunity to have a similar appearance. I would caution against upper eyelid blepharoplasty based upon your age and the chance that upper lid blepharoplasty will femanize your eyelids (show more of the front portion of the eyelid). Good luck.
