Is there anything I can do about droopy eyelids?

[josiecat]

I'm only 40 but I've noticed one eyelid in particular is really starting to droop. I look 10 years older! I don't want surgery, is there anything else? I am very tired and haven't been sleeping well. Would this make it worse?

You can have Botox to help this. Need an experienced practitioner but it can be done .

Well now this may not be related to ageing but can be due to other conditions. Ptosis....which is what onedrooping eyelid is called, can be a condition you're born with or develop...I would go to the GP if I were you.

One thing it is linked to is Diabetes...not trying to scare you and don't begin googling! It could JUST as easily be that you have a weak muscle there and always have but now you're not in the first fush of youth, it's more apparent.

(I am also nearly 40 btw!)
