Sub-brow lift- How to improve sagging skin above the eyelids.

What is Brow Lifting or Sub-brow lifting?

Sub-brow lifting rejuvenates sagging eyelids to make the eyes appear younger. This method is especially useful for older patients who have their brows at normal positions but have lost elasticity in their eyelid muscles, or patients with thick upper eyelid skin regardless of age. Droopy eyelids can irritate the outer edge of the eyelids and can cause inflammation around these areas. Moreover, as droopy eyelids can impair their sight, patients try to open their eyes wider. This habit creates wrinkles on their forehead.


Brow lifting or Sub-brow lifting is suitable for:

1. Those whose distance between eyebrows and eyelashes is long.

2. Those that have thick eyelid skin, particularly those who are middle-aged.

3. Those that have droopy upper eyelid skin.

4. Those that have asymmetrical eyebrows.
