Your existing eyes stay the same,

drooping eyelids feel much lighter

 

A subbrow lift is a procedure in which an incision is made along just below the eyebrow, as in the photo above, to trim the sagging skin and muscle marked by the red line.

​

A double eyelid looks natural and pretty when it is formed by thin skin. By removing the thick skin below the eyebrow from the sagging skin, the thin skin near the double eyelid is stretched out and the double eyelid is revealed, so it helps improve heavy, stuffy-looking upper eyelids while keeping your existing eyes and look relatively natural.

 

Suitable For

• People whose upper eyelid skin droops, making the eyes look stuffy

• People whose skin at the outer corner sags and blocks their vision

• People who strain their eyebrows or forehead because of drooping eyelids

• People who want to keep their existing double eyelid and natural eyes

• People who are concerned that upper blepharoplasty may change their eyes too much

 

 

A careful incision that protects the eyebrow

 

A subbrow lift requires careful consideration not only of the scar position but also of "the angle of the incision."

 

TOV Plastic Surgery makes the incision considering the direction in which the eyebrow hair follicles grow. This reduces unnecessary damage to the follicles and helps the scar settle naturally just below the eyebrow line after surgery.

 

If the incision is made without considering the follicle direction, the eyebrow in that area may thin, and a scar that was initially hidden under the eyebrow may over time appear as if it sits lower.

 

Because eyebrow shape and follicle direction differ from person to person, a design tailored to each individual's eyebrows, rather than a uniform incision line, is important.

 

​

Custom design that also considers glabellar wrinkles

 

People whose inner eyebrows droop sometimes repeatedly strain the area between the brows and the forehead to open their eyes comfortably, and horizontal wrinkles between the brows become noticeable as well.

 

In such cases, after checking the patient's eyebrow shape and the direction of the wrinkles, the incision line can, if needed, be carefully extended not only below the eyebrow but along the vertical line of the eyebrow at the glabella.

 

Through this, we aim to ease not only drooping upper eyelids but also inner-brow sagging and horizontal glabellar wrinkles.

 

※ This method is not applied identically to every patient; the extent of surgery depends on eyebrow position and the cause of the wrinkles.

 

 

Expected Changes After Surgery

• Improvement of drooping upper eyelids

• Relief of heaviness at the outer corner

• Eyes that look lighter and clearer

• Natural preservation of your existing double eyelid and unique look

• Easing of the habit of straining the eyebrows and forehead

• Improvement of horizontal glabellar wrinkles through selective design

​

 

What about the scar?

 

The incision line is located just below the eyebrow line.

 

In the early stage after surgery there may be redness or firmness, but it gradually softens and fades over time. In addition, making the incision with the direction of the eyebrow follicles in mind helps the surrounding eyebrows naturally cover the incision line, so the scar settles in a relatively less noticeable way.

 

However, the degree of scarring and the speed of recovery may differ depending on skin characteristics, the extent of surgery, follicle condition and the individual healing process.
