MY GUIDE ON UPPER EYELID EXPOSURE

[maxlooksmax]

1. Orbicularis Oculi Muscle Exercises​

Strengthening the orbicularis oculi can enhance muscle tone and potentially reduce eyelid exposure.

Partial Wink Exercise:

Method: Partially wink one eye, holding the position for a couple of seconds, then release.
Repetitions: Perform two sets of 50 repetitions for each eye.

Resistance Exercise:
Method: Raise your eyebrows and place a finger underneath to hold them up. Then, try to close your eyes while maintaining resistance.
Repetitions: Perform this exercise every hour.

2. Facial Yoga and Massage​

Relaxing the frontalis muscle (forehead) can help lower the brow position slightly, reducing upper lid exposure.

Forehead Relaxation:
Method: Gently massage the forehead and temples in circular motions to alleviate tension.

Eye Muscle Strengthening:
Method: Place your fingers over your eyebrows, try to move your eyebrows against the weight of your fingers, ensuring not to create wrinkles on your forehead.
Benefit: Strengthens the muscles around the eyes, improving support and contour.

3. Posture and Facial Awareness​

Maintaining proper posture and being mindful of facial expressions can influence eyelid appearance.

Neutral Head Position:
Method: Keep your head aligned with your spine to prevent forward tilt, which can accentuate eyelid exposure.
Benefit: Promotes even distribution of facial muscle tension.
Facial Expression Awareness:
Method: Avoid raising your eyebrows unnecessarily, which can lead to increased eyelid exposure over time.
Benefit: Reduces strain on the forehead and eyelid muscles.

Strategic Use of Eye-Safe Swelling Agents (Cold-to-Warm Alternation)​

Concept: Alternating cold and warm compresses can temporarily enhance blood flow and cause minor puffiness that makes the upper eyelid appear fuller.
How to Do It:
Start with a cold compress for 5 minutes, followed by a warm compress for 2 minutes. Repeat a few cycles.
Why It works: Cold constricts blood vessels, while warmth dilates them, creating a subtle swelling effect. This may create a more "full" eyelid.
Drawback: The effect is very temporary (a few hours at most).

Using Vasodilators (Nitric Oxide Stimulation)​

Concept: Products that increase blood flow could theoretically swell tissues, making the upper eyelid appear less recessed.
Examples: Arginine or topical products designed to boost circulation.
Risks: Redness, irritation, potential allergic responses.
Science: Local vasodilation is real, but sustained use may thin the skin.

Can a reverse brow lift with Botox help reduce UEE and make eyes better? I have a medium amount of exposure and have been looking into getting 15 units of Botox on my frontalis muscle. Would you recommend it or not?
