One of the first signs of aging on the face is sagging eyebrows and forehead skin, which will lead to a tired, sad and older appearance. Because the eyes are one of the most important parts of the face and are very influential in the beauty of the face; Many people go for eyebrow and temple lift surgery to fix eyebrow and forehead drooping.
In this surgery, excess skin is removed and the distance between the eye and eyebrow is increased. This helps the eyes to be more beautiful and the face to look younger, happier and happier. In order to get enough information about eyebrow and forehead drooping and eyebrow and temple lift surgery; Stay with us until the end of the article.
The cause of eyebrow drooping
Although everyone knows that sagging forehead and eyebrow skin can lead to an older and more disproportionate face; But few people know about the various causes of eyebrow drooping. By knowing these factors, you can increase the longevity of the effect of eyebrow and temple lift surgery. Among the most important factors that cause eyebrow drooping; The following can be mentioned:
Genetics
One of the most influential factors in any field is genetics and hereditary issues. In the case of eyebrow drooping, genetics can also play a decisive role, and a person without the involvement of aging or other environmental factors, has a drooping forehead and eyebrow, and is considered a candidate for eyebrow and temple lift surgery.
age increasing
With age, the skin of different parts of the body and face will lose its elasticity and will sag. Although genetics or skin care can delay this process; But anyway, the amount of skin sagging will increase with age. Therefore, most people who are over 50 years old can apply for eyebrow and temple lift surgery.
Various environmental factors
Factors such as sunlight, improper nutrition, failure to follow a proper skin routine, smoking and alcohol consumption, and other such factors, will lead to more sagging skin over time.
When you are exposed to sunlight without sunglasses; You will have to open or close your eyes to maintain your vision. This causes excessive pressure on the muscles of the forehead and around the eyes and makes them fall faster.
Also, using heavy and inappropriate cosmetics and not providing enough moisture and water to the skin can cause the loss of muscle and skin elasticity and lead to drooping of the temples and eyebrows.
What is an eyebrow lift?
Eyebrow and forehead sagging do not only cause beauty problems; They can also affect a person’s vision and self-confidence. Due to the importance of this issue, there are different methods for eyebrow lift or forehead lift. If we divide these methods into two general categories; We can say that eyebrow lift is done in an invasive form (like surgery) and a non-invasive form.
The most basic form of eyebrow lift surgery; Cutting the skin of the face in the hair growth area and removing the extra skin. Of course, during these years, different and less dangerous methods have been invented for eyebrow lift. Brow lift surgery helps to remove forehead and eyebrow sagging and make the face look much younger.
Eyebrow lift surgery
It was mentioned that new and non-invasive measures are another method used to fix eyebrow drooping. Although some people recommend working with laser or even massage and doing home exercises for eyebrow lift; But it is clear that none of these methods have the efficiency and effectiveness of surgery.
Eyebrow lift surgery, like any other cosmetic surgery, including rhinoplasty, requires the presence of an expert team. Surgery is performed with anesthesia and although it is more difficult than non-invasive methods; But it has a much higher durability of several years and its effect is also much greater.
Of course, eyebrow lift surgery itself is performed in different ways and everyone can choose the desired surgery according to the doctor’s opinion and personal conditions.
Types of eyebrow lift with the help of surgery
Since eyebrow lift surgery was performed with a complete incision of the facial skin and was accompanied by a lot of pain and bleeding; It has been a long time. Currently, new methods of eyebrow lifting are performed with the help of surgery, which has made this process much easier, more convenient and less costly.
Among the surgeries that are performed for the purpose of eyebrow lift; The following models can be mentioned:
Classic eyebrow lift surgery
Endoscopic eyebrow lift surgery
Endotain eyebrow lift surgery
But what are the advantages and disadvantages of each of these methods?
Classic eyebrow lift surgery
For the first time, eyebrow lift surgery was introduced in this way. In this method, the facial skin is cut from the hair growth area or slightly behind, and then the veins and facial skin are pulled up. This will make the forehead wrinkles disappear to a great extent and the eyes will be more open. Also, in this method, the eyebrows can be placed in the desired place and the distance between the eyes and eyebrows can be adjusted.
Of course, eyebrow lift surgery may also be performed temporally. These two surgical models are not different except that in the classic method, the entire facial skin is cut slightly behind the hair growth line and on the scalp. But in temporal eyebrow lift surgery, the entire facial skin is cut exactly on the hair growth line.
Among the advantages of eyebrow lift surgery in the classical method, we can mention its wider effect. Due to the larger incision in this method, a larger area of skin is stretched and as a result; It will involve more parts of the skin. Also, the longevity of the classical eyebrow lift is longer than other methods, and the effect of this surgery will remain almost for the rest of your life.
On the other hand, due to the larger incision in this method, this surgery will bring more complications and difficulty.
Endoscopic eyebrow lift surgery
One of the newest methods of eyebrow lift surgery is to perform it with the help of endoscopy. In this method, instead of making a general incision on the top of the forehead, three or four small incisions are made and a very thin endoscopic tube is sent into the tissues. At the head of this tube, a camera and a light source are placed, which provide the medical team with pictures of the desired muscles and tissues.
By viewing these photos, the doctor can decide which muscles need to be lifted, and there is no need to make general incisions and lift all parts of the forehead skin.
The durability of this method is less than the classical method, but its durability is not much less than the classical method. The most important advantage of endoscopic eyebrow lift surgery is that its incisions are hidden next to the hairs and will not be obvious. Also, the number of stitches and its complications are much less than the classical method.
Endotain eyebrow lift surgery
Endotine is a type of skin-compatible prosthesis in the shape of a triangle that is like a glue; It pulls the muscles and skin of the forehead and temple upwards. Of course, this prosthesis will be absorbed after a few months; But its effect remains for a long time. The use of endothene helps the doctor to increase the stretch of the skin and tighten the muscles in place.
If the Endotine method is used along with the endoscopic method or the classical method; Its durability is much longer and the effect of the operation will remain for more than ten years.
The use of Endotine prosthesis makes the effect of this lift more than normal; So if you want to see the most changes after surgery; It is better to use endotain along with other surgical procedures.
Eyebrow lift without surgery
There are many methods to perform a lift without surgery; But you should know that their effect will not be as high as eyebrow surgery. Of course, these methods have less pain, complication and difficulty, and for people who do not have a lot of forehead droop or do not want to do surgery; It is a better choice.
Also, after a non-surgical eyebrow lift, you will recover in a shorter period of time and you can return to your daily activities. Among the popular non-invasive methods for eyebrow lift, the following can be mentioned:
- Eyebrow lift with Botox
- Eyebrow lift with thread
- Eyebrow lift with the help of eyebrow exercise and massage
- Eyebrow lift with botox injection
By injecting Botox, the muscles around the eyes and forehead are temporarily paralyzed, and as a result, frown lines and wrinkles around the eyes disappear. In addition, this issue makes the distance between the eyes and eyebrows appear larger.
Apart from Botox, other chemicals such as fillers are also used for non-surgical eyebrow lifting. Of course, you should keep in mind that this eyebrow lifting method does not last long and you have to renew it every few months. Also, the use of this method does not have many complications and its side effects will disappear shortly after the injection.
Eyebrow lift with thread
Using thread to lift eyebrows and forehead is another non-invasive method that is more effective than using Botox and fillers. In this method, several small incisions of about 3 mm are made around the forehead, and special lifting threads enter the lower part of the skin through these incisions. By pulling up these threads, the muscles and skin around the eyebrows and forehead are also lifted.
This method is less effective than surgery and has less durability. But compared to Botox, it maintains its effect for a longer time. Eyebrow lift with the help of thread lasts for about one and a half years.
Eyebrow lift with the help of eyebrow exercise and massage
Some people believe that with the help of massage and special eyebrow exercises, eyebrows can be lifted to some extent. Of course, this method is mostly used to prevent sagging and its effect is not comparable to surgery or even other non-invasive methods.
Choosing the right eyebrow lift method
Due to the variety of ways to lift eyebrows for different people, choosing the right method for each person is very important. So that each person can choose the best method for eyebrow lift according to their unique characteristics.
