Hello,
I am Dr. Park Jeong-geun,
Director of Faceplus Plastic Surgery Clinic.

Recently, many people have been searching for the phrase ‘Karina forehead lift look’.
This expression is often used not just because the forehead appears lifted,
but because the eyes look clearer and the overall impression appears more refreshed.

While the visible changes might seem similar,
in reality, improvement in ptosis and changes in eye structure often work together.
Especially since the forehead, eyebrows, and skin above the eyes are connected and move together,
a change in one area affects the overall impression.

1. The ‘forehead lift look’: Why do the eyes appear different?
The ‘forehead lift look’
is not just a change in the forehead alone;

it often involves the eyebrows and surrounding eye structures lifting together,
making the overall impression appear different.
In particular, as the skin covering the upper eyelids is refined,
the eyes can appear clearer.

Therefore, even if the actual eye size hasn't changed,
the field of vision can appear more open,
and the eye shape can look more defined.
These changes often act as factors that make the overall image appear clearer.
2. The impact of ptosis improvement on one's impression
The forehead and eyebrow areas
are key elements that determine the impression of the upper face.

If these areas sag,
the eyes can appear constricted,
or a tired impression can be emphasized.
Conversely, when ptosis is improved, space above the eyes is secured,
often resulting in a brighter and clearer overall impression.


These changes sometimes lead to the feeling that ‘the image has been refined’.
Additionally, the overall atmosphere of the face can appear to change as well.
3. How are changes in eye shape created?
Changes in eye shape
are often not about directly altering the eye itself,

but rather appear indirectly as the surrounding structures change.
As the eyebrow position lifts
and the skin above the eyes is refined,
the eyes appear less weighed down,
and the lines become more clearly defined.

Therefore, even with the same eyes,
changes can occur that make them appear clearer and more distinct.
This is how structural changes affect the impression of the eye shape.
4. Why similar appearances can lead to different results
Even if one desires the same ‘forehead lift look’,
the results can appear different for each individual
due to variations in existing eyebrow position, skin elasticity,
and the degree of ptosis.

Furthermore, depending on facial proportions,
the emphasized areas of change can also differ.
Therefore, rather than simply basing expectations on a specific image,
it is necessary to consider what changes are possible given one's current state.
Understanding this point helps in evaluating the results.

The ‘Karina forehead lift look’
is best understood not as a simple lifting of the forehead,
but as a change in impression resulting from the combined effects of ptosis improvement and changes in eye structure.
Since the impression can change depending on the surrounding structures even without altering the eyes themselves,
it is helpful to distinguish which areas are undergoing changes.

The ‘Karina forehead lift look’ is not just about the forehead being lifted; it's a phenomenon where the eyebrows and surrounding eye structures lift together, changing the overall impression. In particular, the skin covering the upper eyelids is refined, which can make the eyes appear clearer.
How does improving forehead and eyebrow ptosis affect one's impression?
When forehead and eyebrow ptosis are improved, space above the eyes is secured, resulting in a brighter and clearer overall impression. This can alleviate the constricted or tired impression caused by sagging.
How are changes in eye shape created?
Changes in eye shape are not about directly altering the eye itself, but rather appear indirectly as the surrounding structures change. As the eyebrow position lifts and the skin above the eyes is refined, the eyes appear less weighed down, and the lines become more clearly defined.
Why do results differ even when aiming for the same ‘forehead lift look’?
Yes, the results appear different for each individual due to variations in existing eyebrow position, skin elasticity, and the degree of ptosis. Additionally, depending on facial proportions, the emphasized areas of change can also differ.
Does the ‘forehead lift look’ actually change the size of the eyes?
No, the actual eye size does not change. As the skin covering the upper eyelids is refined, the field of vision appears more open, and the eye shape looks more defined, creating an effect where the overall image appears clearer.
