Describe a handsome guy: thick eyebrows and big eyes

Describe a beautiful girl:

But as we age

Have you ever paid attention to your eyebrows?

Do you feel your upper eyelids drooping a bit?

The original double eyelids disappeared

Looks a bit like "triangular eyes"

As we age, aging is inevitable, which is reflected in the aging of the face. In addition to the eyes that everyone often pays attention to, there is another part that is often neglected, that is the eyebrows.

Many friends may wonder, eyebrows will also age?

In fact, the aging of eyebrows is mainly manifested in "drooping eyebrows", which often occurs together with the sagging of the upper eyelid skin and is inseparable.

Since many female friends have their eyebrows tattooed or draw their eyebrows frequently, they often don’t notice that their eyebrows have drooped. It feels like...the upper eyelids seem to droop a little, the original double eyelids disappear, and the outer corners of the eyes droop into a triangle, which not only affects the appearance, but in severe cases, it may even cover part of the pupil, and in severe cases, it is not even very convenient to see things.

As the saying goes, eyebrows and eyes are good brothers. They work together to promote aging.

In order to fight against facial aging and make the eyes look brighter and more energetic, some people who are over 40 years old or in their 30s with severe sagging eye skin have turned their attention to brow lift surgery.

Brow lift surgery generally uses the method of subbrow incision. By removing the relatively excess skin under the brow and tightening the loose and drooping tissue, it improves the loose skin of the upper eyelid and corrects triangular eyes and s-shaped eyebrows. It makes the whole person look more energetic and younger, with bigger and more lively eyes.

In addition, by lifting the upper eyelid skin, it is also possible to reduce or eliminate some wrinkles around the eyes.

Will I be unable to close my eyes after a brow lift?

If too much skin is removed, the eyes may not be able to close, so the skin should be removed reasonably and moderately; if the eyes cannot close due to swelling caused by surgery, they will return to normal after the swelling subsides.

If performed by a qualified doctor, there will be no glaring, drooping eyes or inability to close the eyes after the operation.

Upper eyelid swelling may occur in the early postoperative period, and cold compresses can be applied to help reduce the swelling.

Will the surgery remove my eyebrows?

A brow lift is a procedure that involves making a fusiform incision at the lower edge of the eyebrow to remove loose skin, which generally does not damage the position and shape of the eyebrow.

If the patient is not satisfied with his/her eyebrows, eyebrow cutting can be performed to improve the poor eyebrow shape, failed eyebrow tattooing, and scars left after eyebrow washing.

Generally speaking, the incision of brow lift surgery is often relatively hidden. After recovery, the scar is not obvious and will not affect eyebrow drawing and tattooing.

How long will the effect last?

The durability of the surgical effect depends on the surgical method, postoperative care and individual conditions, and can generally last from several years to ten years.

Finally a reminder to everyone!

Be sure to choose a regular plastic surgery hospital

Avoid improper surgical technique
