As we get older and the skin around the eyes begins to sag,
we may undergo surgery to remove the eyelid skin.
It is best to try to prevent sagging,
but once the skin has sagged, it may be possible to maintain it, but not reverse it,
so surgery is considered.
The surgery is called upper blepharoplasty when performed on the upper eyelids,
and lower blepharoplasty when performed on the lower eyelids.

Lower blepharoplasty removes sagging skin and lifts and secures the muscle that has drooped downward,
so it can be performed on its own,
but with upper blepharoplasty, when the sagging skin of the upper eyelid is removed,
the eyebrows are pulled slightly downward,
so for people whose eyebrows are already somewhat drooped,
their expression may change and look somewhat sad or depressed.

So, to prevent the eyebrows from being pulled down and appearing saggy as well,
performing an eyebrow lift at the same time as upper blepharoplasty
can make the surgical result more effective.
By removing sagging skin to eliminate the parts that covered the eyes,
the area above the eyebrow of the eye that had sagged more in the back than in the front was lifted,
maximizing the effect of upper blepharoplasty.

When sagging skin covers the eyes, it can make a person look tired,
and depending on the eye shape, it can also make them look depressed or even fierce, as if they are angry.
When this disappears and the eyes regain a better shape,
the overall impression improves as well, and the face looks brighter overall.

There are people who can see enough effect from upper blepharoplasty without having to undergo an eyebrow lift,
and there are also people, like the patient above,
for whom the combination of these two surgeries is more effective.
There may also be people who need other procedures such as an eyebrow lift under the eyebrow or a forehead lift, rather than upper blepharoplasty,
so do not judge your current condition on your own;
please consult with a specialist.
