Counseling and Medical Examinations

We will discuss your concerns and preferences regarding your upper eyelids and assess skin laxity, thickness, eyebrow position, asymmetry, and how your eyelids open.

During the consultation, we will assess the amount and thickness of excess skin, the position of the eyebrows, any asymmetry, and how well the eyelids open to determine whether a subbrow incision (subbrow lift or eye lift) is appropriate.

Design and Treatment

Based on the results of the consultation and examination, we design the incision line along the lower edge of the eyebrows and determine the area of skin to be removed.

After anesthesia, excess skin is removed and the incision is carefully sutured. The procedure typically takes about 40 to 50 minutes. We use a combination of topical anesthetic cream and local anesthesia, and nitrous oxide anesthesia is also available upon request.

Postoperative Recovery and Downtime

Swelling and bruising generally subside within about 1 to 2 weeks. However, slight swelling may take about 3 months to subside, and redness around the scar will gradually fade over a period of about 3 to 6 months.

Sutures are typically removed about one week after surgery. Since recovery times vary from person to person, please consult with us well in advance to schedule your procedure if you have important plans.

Follow-up

During the one-week post-operative follow-up visit, we will remove the sutures and check the condition of the incision and any swelling. After that, we will continue to monitor your progress based on any concerns you may have, such as the appearance of the double eyelid crease or asymmetry between the eyes.

We’ve established an after-sales support system that makes it easy to reach out, so please feel free to contact us if you have any concerns.
