Subbrow Lift, Non-incisional Ptosis Correction, Upper Eyelid Micro-fat Grafting, and Lower Blepharoplasty
A case study of a female patient in her 50s who underwent a comprehensive eye rejuvenation including subbrow lift, ptosis correction, and lower blepharoplasty.

* Basic Information
# Female in her 50s
# Medical History: No specific findings
# Current Condition
- Thin skin with significant sagging
- Weak eyelid opening power and hollow upper eyelids
- Bulging fat under the eyes, creating a tired and aged appearance
* Consultation
# The patient visited with significant sagging of the upper eyelid skin and weak eyelid opening power. She planned the surgery due to bulging and wrinkles under the eyes.
# Caution is required if performing ‘Upper Blepharoplasty only’ (removing sagging skin while creating a double eyelid), as it can make the upper eyelid puffiness more prominent and result in an unnatural or harsh-looking double eyelid.
# The plan is to lift the sagging skin from beneath the eyebrows and improve the eyelid opening power through non-incisional ptosis correction.
# For the lower blepharoplasty, it is crucial to: 1. Reposition the bulging fat pockets, and 2. Perform orbicularis oculi muscle suspension to prevent ectropion and ensure long-lasting results.
* Surgical Plan
# Subbrow Lift, Non-incisional Ptosis Correction, Upper Eyelid Micro-fat Grafting
# Lower Blepharoplasty


* Surgical Process and Progress
# Subbrow Lift
- Efforts were made to resolve skin sagging as much as possible.
- It is important not just to excise the skin, but to perform periosteal fixation to prevent re-sagging and ensure long-lasting effects.
# Non-incisional Ptosis Correction
- Not only was a double eyelid line created, but the eyelid opening power was also improved, resulting in a clearer impression.
# Upper Eyelid Micro-fat Grafting
- Resolved the hollowness of the upper eyelids.
# Lower Blepharoplasty
- In addition to repositioning the under-eye fat, the orbicularis oculi muscle was securely suspended to prevent complications like ectropion or easy recurrence.
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!
