Endoscopic Brow Lift & Incisional Ptosis Revision (a.k.a. 2-in-1 Fix-Up Ptosis Correction)

* Basic Information

# Female in her 20s

# Medical History: Previous incisional ptosis correction and epicanthoplasty

# Narrow space between the eyebrows and eyes, resulting in a bulging and heavy appearance

# Insufficient ptosis correction from the previous surgery, leaving the patient looking sleepy and tired

* Consultation

# The narrow space between the eyebrows and eyes creates a feeling of heaviness. Simply re-fixing the double eyelid fold will not improve this sensation; in fact, it could make the area look even more bulging.

# We planned to resolve the narrow space between the brows and eyes through an endoscopic brow lift, while simultaneously performing eye revision surgery to correct the eyelid-opening strength and ensure the line is clearly visible.

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

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Fix-Up Ptosis Correction?

Fix-Up Ptosis Correction is a surgical procedure that combines endoscopic forehead lift and incisional ptosis correction revision surgery. It aims to address the narrow space between the eyebrows and eyes and correct the strength of eye opening to create an ideal eye shape.

Why are forehead lift and ptosis correction revision surgery performed together?

This is because the forehead and eyes cannot be considered separately. Harmony between the two areas is necessary to alleviate the stuffiness caused by the narrow space between the eyebrows and eyes and to create an ideal eye shape.

What should I do if my eyes still look sleepy after a previous incisional ptosis correction?

Yes, revision surgery can be considered. If your eyes look sleepy and tired due to insufficient ptosis correction, you can plan a revision eye surgery to correct the strength of eye opening and improve the line.

What changes can I expect after the surgery?

After the surgery, an in-out double eyelid with a visible line from the front will be created, and the eyelids will not appear bulky, forming a clear line. As the swelling subsides, a natural and clear impression will be achieved.

Are there any complications or side effects after the surgery?

Yes, they can occur. Complications and side effects such as bleeding, inflammation, infection, and asymmetry after surgery may vary depending on the individual and require caution, as advised.
