In such cases, please return to our clinic for appropriate follow-up treatment

What Is Subbrow Lift?
A sub-brow lift is a surgical procedure designed to reduce sagging in the upper eyelids. It involves removing excess skin just beneath the lower edge of the eyebrows.
For those who originally had a natural double eyelid crease, this procedure can help restore the original crease while improving the appearance of sagging upper eyelids.
As a result, many patients also notice reduced forehead wrinkles and relief from tension or heaviness around the eyelids and brows. This surgery offers a natural-looking improvement without significantly altering your facial expression or overall appearance.
Features of Subbrow Lift
- Effectively reduces sagging of the upper eyelids!
- Restores a youthful and refreshed look around the eyes!

FAQ
Can I have double eyelid surgery on each eye on separate days?
It is possible to have the procedure on each eye on different days. However, in this case, you will need to pay for each eye separately. The cost for one eye is 60% of the price for both eyes, so it will be more expensive than having both eyes done at the same time. Please understand this in advance.
