Help me!!!
Honestly I look so old 😳I'm only 46.
Don't know what to do to reduce water retention coupled with hooded eyes inherited from both parents. A very stressful few years. I've aged badly well before time and am
Willing to invest in myself .
Any recommendations / thoughts/ experiences appreciated .

Hi there, I'm sorry you're struggling. I also have heavy/hooded eyelids (am in mid 30s) and plan to have eyelid surgery when I'm around 40. Look at some reputable cosmetic surgeons (check reviews etc) and perhaps have a consultation to see if you think it's the right choice for you.

It will probably be a few thousand pounds so you'll need to factor that in. They do tend to offer finance packages.

Please also remember that we are far more critical of ourselves. Others will not see our flaws like we do!

However, If cosmetic surgery makes someone feel better/more confident/happy then I say go for it!

You might have to pay about £200 just for a consultation. Some will try and push a brow lift too which is a few more thousand, also lower blepharoplasty may be needed which can leave the eyes looking pulled down.
Do lots of research on surgeons and reviews.

There was a woman on here a few weeks ago who was doing the keto diet. She said it had got rid of her hooded eyes. They were apparently really bad before and had gone after something ridiculous like a week. Just a thought, ladies!
