Is forehead lift or eyelid surgery best?

The eyes are the mirror of the soul and most people want eyes that look happy, bright and young. But over the years, the elasticity of the skin decreases and the skin around the eyes becomes thin and saggy.

It gives the impression you definitely don't want - that you are tired, sad or angry. So it's not surprising that many people want to freshen up their tired eyebrows with surgery, and start looking for information on what kind of procedures are available. But what should you actually choose to achieve the results you want? We look at the differences between two popular procedures - brow lift and eyelid surgery. Which is best depends on your anatomy.

Eyelid surgery

Eyelid surgery is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat bags. You can choose to focus on either the upper or lower eyelids - or choose a combination. By removing the sagging skin, you will look younger and more vibrant. Upper eyelid procedures are suitable for most people and often give very satisfactory results.

Forehead lift

For some people, the problem is not the excess skin on the eyelids, but the fact that the eyebrows have lost their elasticity and have started to droop. In this case, a brow lift is more appropriate than an eyelid correction. Drooping, heavy eyes often give a tired and worn impression. Ideally, the eyebrow should be positioned above the bone of the eye - this makes you look alert and youthful and signals attention.
