In the before picture, her pupils are just barely visible. The
after picture shows a more normal upper eyelid position, with the upper eyelids
cutting through the iris, well above the level of the pupil.
In some people, the upper eyelid position is too low because the muscle that
holds the eyelid up is damaged. In this patient's case, the muscle
was fine, it was just too taxed by the weight of excess skin it had to hold up.

Questioner:
Is It Worth Getting my Rhinoplasty? Because I Think my Front Looks Good.
how should it change?
(Questioner submitted photos)
Dr. Denenberg's answer: Often the frontal view changes little in a rhinoplasty
When most of your complaints result from a strong profile view, it's possible to improve that profile while making only tiny changes to the frontal view. See my "Web reference" link for a morph showing how your profile could be changed and some other important info. I brought the tip of your nose back closer to your face, took down the hump, and raised the tip a small amount. These changes would only affect the frontal view by perhaps having the nose not droop down over your lip quite so much. It makes sense: you can't really tell from the frontal view how big someone's hump is, so it's the profile view that changes more.
