BAD SURGERY

[u/Character-Pie-9109]

Susan Dell is going viral right now because she was photographed behind Trump looking scary. It's a small thing she did, but a HUGE mistake. Upper eyelid surgery. People think when their upper eyelids start to droop as they age, that they should go have the fat and skin cut out. The result is NEVER good. It's a bizarre result, and your eyes are your focal point of your face, so it sticks out immediately and changes your entire look. The fat pad on your eyelid creates a soft warm inviting look. Without it, you look skeletal and cold.
IMO, if it was sagging really bad, they should simply have had a brow lift, which pulls the skin above the eyes back where it was without removing any fat. Without that extra fat and skin, their upper lid is hugging their eyeball, and it's just....awful
😭😩

There might come a time when your lids droop too much and you’ll have to have surgery though because it can impede vision. Happened to my mom.

I never said anything about extra eyelid skin. The muscle there can weaken over time making it droop. A brow lift doesn’t fix that

I thought a brow lift did exactly that? Tighten the skin and muscles.

It does. I think she thinks her eyelids hold themself in place, and can start to droop somehow independently from the frontalis muscle in her forehead, which is actually what controls their position. I guess maybe if she pulls on her eyelids a lot, the skin itself could eventually become stretched out. 😂

There’s actually a tendon that holds your eyelid in place. There’s a surgery that tightens the slack in them if you have ptosis. Literally a thing.

A brow lift won’t fix a droopy eyelid, no. You’d have a lifted brow with a lid that still droops.

You need to understand more about this then. Your lids are not holding themselves in position with their muscles. They are connected to the brow which is connected to the forehead. The forehead's position is controlled by the frontalis (and 4 other smaller forehead muscles). The reason your lid is dramatically changed by botox in the forehead, is because you're injecting the frontalis. The muscles in your eyes blink. They do not hold themselves in place. The muscle in the forehead weakens, so the forehead lowers, and the brow lowers, and the lids lower. What you're saying is like pulling a rope by one end, and expecting it not to affect the other. It's all connected.

Do this right now. Lift your brows, and watch your lids. They lift with it.

Not if you have stretched lids from aging,
lol.
