Creating a Clear Impression with Endoscopic Forehead Lift and Revision Eye Surgery!

* Basic Information

# Female in her 20s

# Medical History: Incisional double eyelid surgery

# Current Condition

- Raises eyebrows whenever opening the eyes

- Eyelids feel puffy and heavy

- Weak eye-opening strength and closed outer corners of the eyes, resulting in a sharp or fierce impression

# Desired Changes

- Wants to improve the puffiness of the eyelids and achieve a more refreshed, clear look.

* Consultation

# There is puffiness and a feeling of stuffiness in the space between the eyebrows and the eyes. Simply re-fixing the double eyelid will not improve this sensation. In fact, it might make that area look even puffier.

# By releasing the corrugator muscles through an endoscopic forehead lift and simultaneously raising the eyebrows to an ideal height, we can resolve both the heavy feeling and the eyebrow position at the same time.

# The forehead and eyes cannot be considered separately. Harmony between these two areas is essential to achieve an ideal eye shape!

* Plan

# FIX-UP Eye Correction

- Endoscopic Forehead Lift

- Incisional Ptosis Correction (Revision)

- Epicanthoplasty (Inner Corner Fold Removal)

- Dual Canthoplasty (Lateral and Lower Canthoplasty)

* Post-operative Progress

1. What is the first change you notice? Even though a clear in-out double eyelid line was created, the eyelids do not look puffy at all, right? A very clean and refreshed line has been achieved.

2. By releasing the strong corrugator muscles through the forehead lift, previous wrinkles are smoothed out, resulting in a more voluminous forehead.

Frequently Asked Questions

In what cases is endoscopic forehead lift necessary?

Endoscopic forehead lift is necessary when you raise your eyebrows when opening your eyes, or when the space between your eyebrows and eyes appears puffy and stuffy. By releasing the corrugator muscles and raising the eyebrows to an ideal height, these problems can be simultaneously improved.

Why consider a forehead lift together with eye reoperation?

Yes, it is recommended to consider a forehead lift together with eye reoperation. Since the forehead and eyes must be in harmony to achieve an ideal eye shape, it is effective to improve them together if eyebrow position or forehead puffiness affects the eye shape.

What changes occur in the forehead after an endoscopic forehead lift?

After an endoscopic forehead lift, strong corrugator muscles are relaxed, improving previous wrinkles and creating a more voluminous forehead. This can lead to a fresher and more natural impression.

What surgeries were performed to improve the eye shape in this case?

In this case, Fix-up ptosis correction, endoscopic forehead lift, incisional ptosis correction (reoperation), epicanthoplasty, and dual canthoplasty/lateral canthoplasty with lower lid descent were performed together to improve the eye shape. Complex eye shape concerns were resolved through multiple surgeries.

What impression changes can be achieved with endoscopic forehead lift and eye reoperation?

Yes, a clear and refreshed impression can be achieved through endoscopic forehead lift and eye reoperation. The puffiness of the eyelids is improved and the strength of opening the eyes is enhanced, so the previously fierce impression can change to a fresh and bright one.
