Hi, I'm only 18 but I have hooded eyes that I feel make me look angry or upset and really take away from my face. I usually lift my eyelids slightly so that they look more awake and open and less droopy, but by the end of the day the tensing of the muscles gives me really bad headaches. I'd like something to get rid of this problem for good- it's a really big source of insecurity for me, it's starting to really effect me.
So my question is- since I am only 18, and the droopyness is genetic, do you think that eyelid lifting products or facial excercises will help me, or are those only for people who have droop due to aging? Is a surgery my only option? I really don't want to do that so young but it's really making me insecure. 8(
please reply! I haven't gotten much feedback or answers on this forum and it seems you all know a lot about this stuff. |

| I searched it and that isn't what it looks like...it's not my entire eyelid that droops it's just the upper space between my eyebrow and lids. They're called 'hooded' I believe...I can post a picture if it would help? |
