A case study of a 50s female patient achieving natural rejuvenation through sub-brow lifting and under-eye fat repositioning.

Middle-Aged Eye Surgery: Enhancing Beauty Naturally with a ‘Did She or Didn’t She?’ Look!

* Basic Information

  • Female in her 50s
  • Medical History: Non-incisional ptosis correction several years ago

# Current Condition

  • Experiencing discomfort due to sagging eyelid skin
  • Under-eye fat is bulging, making the face look tired

* Consultation

  • The patient visited the clinic planning surgery due to sagging and hollowing of the upper eyelids, as well as bulging and wrinkles under the eyes.
  • Since the distance between the eyebrows and eyes is favorable and there is slight hollowing in the eyelid area, a sub-brow lift was planned.
  • Regarding the under-eye area, since skin sagging was not severe, we decided to approach through the conjunctiva to reposition the bulging fat pockets without excising any skin.
  • Additionally, to alleviate the tear trough, a PRP injection was planned to regenerate the dermis.

* Surgical Plan

  • Sub-brow Lift
  • Under-eye Fat Repositioning

* Post-operative Progress

  • We aimed to naturally resolve the eyelid sagging through a sub-brow lift.
  • When performing a sub-brow lift, it is crucial not just to excise the skin but to perform periosteal fixation to prevent re-sagging and ensure long-lasting results.
  • By repositioning the under-eye fat, we addressed the bulging while simultaneously using PRP injections to aid skin regeneration and improve the sunken appearance under the eyes.

Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!
