Achieving Defined Double Eyelid Lines with Endoscopic Forehead Lift and Revision Eye Surgery!
A case study of a woman in her 20s who achieved clear, refreshed eyes through a combination of endoscopic forehead lift, revision ptosis correction, and Mango canthoplasty.
* Basic Information
# Female in her 20s
# Narrow space between eyebrows and eyes with a puffy appearance
# Previous double eyelid surgery has completely unraveled. Desires large, defined double eyelids!
* Consultation
# The patient wanted to improve her stuffy and somewhat sharp impression caused by the narrow gap between her eyebrows and eyes.
# To address the narrow eyebrow-eye gap and the puffy upper eyelids, an endoscopic forehead lift was planned. Additionally, to correct weak eye-opening muscles and create a defined line, an incisional ptosis correction was scheduled. To make the ‘closed-off’ eyes look larger, a Full Mango Canthoplasty (epicanthoplasty and lateral/lower canthoplasty) was also planned.
# The forehead and eyes cannot be considered separately. Harmony between these two areas is essential to achieve the ideal eye shape!
* Surgical Plan
# FIX-UP Ptosis Correction
- Endoscopic Forehead Lift
- Incisional Ptosis Correction (Revision)
- Mango Canthoplasty (Epicanthoplasty, Lateral/Lower Canthoplasty)
* Post-Operative Progress
1. What is the first change you notice? Even though the double eyelids were created naturally, the upper eyelids do not look puffy at all, right? This is because the space between the eyebrows and eyes was secured through the forehead lift! A very clean and refreshed line has been created.
2. A beautiful forehead is a bonus! The forehead, which used to be uneven due to the habit of lifting the brows, has become voluminous and smooth. Simply releasing the muscles that pull strongly on the eyebrows can improve the forehead contour beautifully.

Frequently Asked Questions
In what cases is endoscopic forehead lift necessary?
Endoscopic forehead lift may be considered if the distance between the eyebrows and eyes is narrow, making the eyes appear stuffy, or if the eyelids are puffy, or if there are forehead wrinkles due to a habit of raising the eyebrows. It helps create an ideal eye shape by harmonizing the eyes and forehead.
What surgical methods can be combined during eye reoperation?
Yes, various surgical methods can be combined during eye reoperation depending on the patient's condition. In this case, incisional ptosis correction was planned to correct weak eye-opening strength and create a clear line, along with Mango Ttueim (epicanthoplasty, lateral canthoplasty, and lower canthoplasty) to make the eyes appear larger.
How does endoscopic forehead lift affect the double eyelid line?
Endoscopic forehead lift positively affects making the double eyelid line natural and clear. It secures space between the eyebrows and eyes, improving the puffiness of the eyelids, which helps the double eyelids appear fresher and more natural.
Can the forehead contour also be improved after a forehead lift?
Yes, it is possible. Endoscopic forehead lift has the effect of relaxing the muscles that strongly hold the eyebrows, which can help improve the uneven forehead contour caused by the habit of raising the eyebrows, making it more voluminous.
Why should the eyes and forehead be considered together?
Since the eyes and forehead are closely connected, harmony between the two areas is important for an ideal eye shape. The position or condition of the forehead directly affects the eye shape, so it is effective to plan improvements together, considering the overall impression.
