Liftbrow Lift

‍Eyebrow lift and upper blepharoplasty are two different procedures. The latter procedure fixes the saggy eyelid by making a double eyelid line, changing the original shape and form of the eye.

On the other hand, eyebrow lift simply makes an incision either above or below the eyebrow, enabling the patients to keep the original shape of their eyes, double eyelid lines, and appearances.

Let’s know more about the procedure before having it.

What is Eyebrow Lift?

An eyebrow lift, also known as a brow lift or forehead lift, is a cosmetic surgical procedure aimed at improving the appearance of the eyebrows and forehead area. It is designed to address sagging eyebrows, forehead wrinkles, frown lines, and other signs of aging in the upper face. The procedure can help lift the eyebrows to a more youthful and aesthetically pleasing position, resulting in a rejuvenated and refreshed appearance.

There are different techniques used for an eyebrow lift, including:

  • Traditional Brow Lift. This surgical procedure involves making incisions either within the hairline or along the natural creases of the forehead. The surgeon then lifts and repositions the underlying tissues and muscles, removing any excess skin if necessary. The incisions are then closed with sutures.
  • Endoscopic Brow Lift. This minimally invasive procedure utilizes an endoscope, which is a thin tube with a camera on the end. The surgeon makes several small incisions within the hairline and inserts the endoscope to visualize and adjust the tissues and muscles. This technique typically results in smaller incisions, less scarring, and a quicker recovery compared to the traditional brow lift.
  • Non-Surgical Brow Lift. Non-surgical options for eyebrow lift include treatments such as Botox injections and thread lifts. Botox injections relax the muscles that pull the eyebrows downward, resulting in a temporary lift. Thread lifts involve inserting dissolvable threads under the skin to lift and reshape the eyebrows, providing a subtle elevation.

Your cosmetic surgeon will choose the specific technique that will best suit your needs and preferences.

Who are Good Candidates for Eyebrow Lift?

Eyebrow Lift

Good candidates for an eyebrow lift are individuals who are bothered by the appearance of sagging eyebrows, forehead wrinkles, frown lines, or other signs of aging in the upper face. While each case is unique, here are some general characteristics of good candidates for an eyebrow lift:

 

  • Sagging Eyebrows: Candidates typically have eyebrows that have descended or drooped over time, resulting in a tired or angry appearance. The ideal candidate may desire to raise the position of their eyebrows to achieve a more youthful and refreshed look.

 

  • Forehead Wrinkles and Frown Lines: Candidates may have noticeable wrinkles or deep furrows on the forehead or between the eyebrows (glabellar lines). These can be addressed and minimized through an eyebrow lift procedure.

 

This operation is not performed directly on the eye area, but rather near the eyebrows. Therefore, it doesn’t change the shape of the eyes, double eyelids, single eyelid, or the overall impression of the client’s appearance. For that reason, Eyebrow Lift is for clients who want to keep their original looks.

Who are Good Candidates for Eyebrow Lift?

Prior to the eyebrow lift procedure, you need to have an initial consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals, medical history, and any concerns you may have. The surgeon will evaluate your facial anatomy and determine if you are a good candidate for an eyebrow lift. If you are fit for the procedure, the surgeon will provide specific instructions for your pre-operative preparations.

 

During the eyebrow lift procedure, you will be under local anesthesia. The type and placement of incisions will depend on the technique used for your eyebrow lift. Traditional brow lifts involve incisions either within the hairline or along the natural creases of the forehead. Endoscopic brow lifts utilize several small incisions hidden within the hairline.

 

The surgeon will lift and reposition the underlying tissues and muscles to elevate the eyebrows and smooth out forehead wrinkles. Excess skin may be removed, if necessary. Once the desired adjustments are made, the incisions will be closed with sutures or other closure methods. Your surgeon may apply dressings or bandages to protect the incision sites.

 

After the procedure, you will be monitored for a few hours until the anesthesia wears off. Your surgeon will provide you with detailed post-operative instructions regarding wound care, medications to take, activity restrictions, and any potential side effects or complications to watch for.

 

Swelling and bruising around the eyes and forehead are common after an eyebrow lift. These effects usually subside over time but can last for several weeks. You will have scheduled follow-up appointments with your surgeon to monitor your healing progress and remove any sutures.

 

The final results of an eyebrow lift can take several weeks or months to fully manifest as swelling subsides and the tissues settle into their new position. The results of an eyebrow lift are long-lasting, although the natural aging process will continue over time.

Lateral Canthoplasty

Lateral canthoplasty is a surgical procedure that has gained popularity in recent years to enhance the appearance of the outer corners of the eyes. This procedure is often sought after by those who wish to correct issues such as drooping, sagging, or asymmetry of the outer corners of the eyes.

 

One of the best places to consider lateral canthoplasty is South Korea, known for its advanced techniques, state-of-the-art facilities, and highly skilled surgeons. If you plan to have lateral canthoplasty in South Korea, contact Mina Plastic Surgery.

Why do People Choose to have Lateral Canthoplasty?

People may choose to have a lateral canthoplasty for a variety of reasons.

The most common reasons people choose to have this procedure are to correct a drooping or sagging appearance of the outer corner of the eye that may be caused by aging, genetics, or trauma. The surgery can also enhance the overall shape and contour of the eye area, creating a more youthful and aesthetically pleasing appearance.

In addition, it can improve the symmetry and balance of the eyes, particularly in cases where there is a noticeable asymmetry between the left and right eyes. Another reason people opt for this procedure is to boost self-confidence and self-esteem by addressing an aspect of their appearance that they feel self-conscious about.

Ultimately, the decision to have a lateral canthoplasty is personal and should be based on the individual’s unique needs and goals. It is crucial to consult with our qualified surgeon to determine if lateral canthoplasty is a suitable option and to discuss the potential risks and benefits of the procedure.

Lateral Canthoplasty

Who is a Good Candidate for Lateral Canthoplasty?

Lateral canthoplasty is suitable for those who want a soft gaze and a more extended outer corner of their eyes or to correct a sagging or drooping appearance. A person who has one of the following is a good candidate for lateral canthoplasty:

  • Excessive skin on the outer corner of the eyes causes a drooping or sagging appearance.
  • Short eyes. The distance between the inner and outer corners of the eyes is shorter than average.
  • Eyes that appear close together. The positioning of the lateral canthus can cause this.
  • Slanted eyes, where the angle of the outer corner of the eyes is more pronounced, giving a tilted appearance to the eyes.
  • A cross-eyed appearance. Several factors, including the positioning of the lateral canthus, can cause it.                                                       
  • Lastly, candidates must have good overall health and realistic expectations for the procedure’s outcome.

Lateral Canthoplasty: What to Expect

Before everything else, consult a qualified cosmetic surgeon to discuss your goals, medical history, and potential risks or complications. If you are pre-qualified for the consultation, you will be invited to the clinic for further medical examinations to ensure you can safely undergo the procedure.

Once you are qualified for lateral canthoplasty, the cosmetic surgeon provides pre-operative instructions to follow. The instructions may include avoiding certain medications, refraining from eating or drinking, and stopping smoking.

On the day of the procedure, local anesthesia is applied to numb the area around your eyes. If you undergo several cosmetic procedures simultaneously, general anesthesia is provided.

During the procedure, the cosmetic surgeon creates a small incision at the outer corner of the eyes to access the lateral canthal tendon. The surgeon modifies the tendon to create the desired shape or angle of the outer corner of the eye. After the modification, the surgeon will close the sutures.

After the lateral canthoplasty procedure, you will need to take some time to rest and recover. The nurses and surgeon will monitor you in the clinic for a few hours. Keeping your head elevated and using ice packs to reduce swelling and bruising for a few days after the surgery is crucial.

Moreover, your surgeon will provide post-operative instructions for you to follow, including taking antibiotics or pain medication, avoiding strenuous activities, and applying topical ointments or drops to the incision site. You will also have follow-up appointments with your surgeon to monitor your progress, remove sutures, and check for complications.

Remember that the full results of the procedure may take several weeks to months to recover fully, but you should see a noticeable improvement in the shape and angle of the outer corner of your eyes. Do not hesitate to ask your surgeon any questions or concerns you may have during the recovery process.

Frequently Asked Questions about Lateral Canthoplasty

You may need this added information to understand lateral canthoplasty better.

Yes, there is likely some scarring after your lateral canthoplasty. But you do not have to worry about it, as it is minimal and well-hidden within the natural creases of your eyes. Moreover, proper aftercare may further lessen its visibility.

Yes, there are a few cosmetic procedures that you can have alongside lateral canthoplasty. Ask your cosmetic surgeon if you are a good candidate for eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) or brow lift. Combining these eye cosmetic procedures lessens the overall recovery time and helps achieve a more comprehensive eyes and face rejuvenation.

Lateral canthoplasty is permanent, as the procedure uses a surgical modification on the outer corner of the eye. However, a few aspects may still affect the results, such as our natural aging process and lifestyle.

If you are not ready for the surgical procedure, you can have non-surgical alternatives to improve the outer appearance of your eyes. Derma fillers or botox injections are the common alternatives to lift the brow and create a more open-eyed appearance. However, you must consult your cosmetic surgeon to know if you are a good candidate for the procedure.
