What matters more than eyebrow lift cost
<Selection Criterion>

Hello.
This is Objet Plastic Surgery.
Many people feel that the area above the eyes feels heavy
or that the skin covers the double eyelid crease,
which can make them feel stuffy.
Every time they look in the mirror,
they may think,
"It wasn’t like this before," or
when they take photos,
their eyes look small and
their expression looks tired,
so they feel it is hard to post photos without editing.
People around them may say things like,
"That’s just what happens as you get older," or
"Can’t you just get double eyelid surgery?"
But in reality, it is not easy to clearly know
which method is right for you.
Moreover, the surgery recommended
can differ from one clinic to another.
Some places recommend upper blepharoplasty,
while others suggest an eyebrow lift,
which can make things even more confusing.
At times like this,
some people feel burdened by the cost of an eyebrow lift
and choose a cheaper option.
But more important than the price is
accurately understanding the condition of your eyes.

So today, I’ll explain
what kinds of eyes need an eyebrow lift,
what specific features they have,
and how to distinguish them from other similar-looking cases.
If you read until the end,
you may be able to judge more clearly
which category your eyes fall into.
Can you see the ‘OOO’ clearly?

The first sign that an eyebrow lift may be needed is
when sagging skin covers the double eyelid line.
If you originally had a clear double eyelid crease,
but as time passed,
skin above the eyes began to sag,
and the crease behind it became less and less visible,
that is the kind of situation we mean.
In such cases, every time you open your eyes,
the skin folds over,
making the eyes look smaller
and creating a stuffy feeling.
In particular, when taking photos,
many people notice that their eyes look half-closed,
or that they have to consciously strain
to open their eyes wide.
What happens if you get double eyelid surgery again
in this situation?
In fact, the double eyelid itself is not the problem.
It is simply the skin covering it
that has become stretched.
That is why,
rather than creating a new double eyelid,
a method that removes the sagging skin,
after eyebrow lift is a much more suitable choice.

If the thick skin just below the eyebrow is removed,
the thin eyelid skin can be preserved as is,
so the double eyelid line you originally had
can be naturally maintained.
Therefore, if you had a double eyelid
but it is being covered,
that can be considered an eye shape
that may need an eyebrow lift.
If ‘this area’ is thick, it is recommended!

The second sign is
when the eyelid skin is especially thick.
Because of naturally thick skin,
some people feel a heavy sensation above the eyes
and have to use a lot of effort
every time they open their eyes.
In such cases,
if a standard upper blepharoplasty is performed,
there is a chance that the eyes may instead
look unnatural
or appear more severe.
Why is that?
Upper blepharoplasty involves making an incision in the eyelid skin
and creating a new double eyelid line.
At that time, if the double eyelid is created
while leaving the thick skin as it is,
the thick tissue will place strain
on the double eyelid line when the eyes are opened.
As a result,
the eyes may become overly defined
or their shape may change in an unintended way.
By contrast, an eyebrow lift directly removes
the thick skin below the eyebrow,
so it can effectively improve the heavy feeling.

Because it does not touch the eyelid itself
and instead only organizes the sagging part from above,
it can resolve the stuffy feeling
while maintaining a natural eye shape.
Therefore, people whose eyes feel heavy
because the skin is thick
can also be considered to have an eye shape
that may need an eyebrow lift.

The third sign is
when sagging skin actually blocks the field of vision.
This is not just a cosmetic issue,
but a stage where daily life becomes inconvenient.
If your upper field of vision feels stuffy
when your eyes are open,
or if you unconsciously tense your forehead
to try to open your eyes wider,
that applies to this condition.
In particular, many people say
it is hard to concentrate
because when reading or working on a computer,
the area above the eyes keeps feeling like it is closing.
When skin sags enough to block the field of vision like this,
it usually occurs in the upper eye area,
below the eyebrow.
The eyelid itself is not the problem;
it is the skin above it sagging downward
and covering the eyes.
In such cases,
double eyelid surgery alone is difficult to solve the problem.
Because the eyelid itself is normal,
the sagging skin covering it must be removed directly
to secure the field of vision.
An eyebrow lift removes sagging skin
just below the eyebrow,
so it can precisely address the part
that is blocking the vision.
After surgery,
you will need less effort to open your eyes,
and your field of vision will also become wider,
making daily life much more comfortable.
Therefore, if you are experiencing
not only cosmetic concerns but also functional discomfort,
that can be considered an eye shape
that may need an eyebrow lift.

Today, I explained
three features of eye shapes that need an eyebrow lift.
If your double eyelid is present
but covered by skin,
if the skin is thick
and the area above the eyes feels heavy,
and if sagging skin is even blocking your field of vision,
then if even one of these three applies,
it can be considered a condition worth
considering an eyebrow lift.
Of course, even if the symptoms seem similar,
each person’s eye structure is different,
so an accurate diagnosis should be made
through consultation with a specialist.
If you are planning to have a consultation,
keep these three points in mind.
Is my double eyelid
covered by skin?
Is the eyelid heavy
and thick?
And is the field of vision actually
blocked to the point of discomfort?
If you clearly check these points,
it will help you judge
which method is right for you.

Dr. Kim Hyun-jo of Objet Plastic Surgery
uses extensive clinical experience
to precisely analyze each patient’s
eye structure and skin condition,
and makes it a basic principle of care
to objectively and honestly guide patients
on whether an eyebrow lift is appropriate
or whether another method would be better.
Rather than recommending surgery blindly,
they carefully examine the patient’s anatomical conditions
and take an approach that can maintain
natural results over the long term.
I hope this article has helped
easel some of your questions
about eye shapes that may need an eyebrow lift.
