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? What matters more than eyebrow lift cost <Selection Criterion>

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! What matters more than eyebrow lift cost <Selection Criterion>

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.

Blocked vision? The reason double eyelid surgery cannot fix it What matters more than eyebrow lift cost <Selection Criterion>

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.

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

they carefully examine the patient’s anatomical conditions

and take an approach that can maintain

natural results over the long term.
