People with a classic almond eye (which is also known as doe eyes) have a natural upward lift to the outer corner of their eye. The lift of the lower eyelid makes it appear longer than the upper eyelid and also allows the eye to look larger, more shaped and more open.
What treatment does this look entail?
To achieve this look botulinum toxin is injected into the orbicularis oculi muscle to create a widening of the eye which gives a more oval or almond shape to the lower eyelid. The tail of the outer eye will also go upwards following this treatment. This allows the frontalis muscle to lift the outer brow giving a subtle upturned look. In addition to the botulinum toxin injection, dermal filler can be injected in the area around the eye to provide support and strength to the skin below the outer eyelid resulting in a fresh, less tired look with greater uplift of the lower eyelid.
How many treatments are required to achieve an almond eye look?
Two to three sessions may be required. And small incremental changes are more desirable when treating the delicate eye area. Once the desired effect is achieved maintenance can be done once a year.
Can the procedure be done on men and women?
A procedure can be done on women and also on men. Fortunately it can be performed on all skin types.
