Want to improve sagging eyelids? A doctor explains the differences between brow lift, blepharoplasty, and forehead lift.
With deep medical insight cultivated as an internal medicine specialist, I bridge aesthetic surgery, dermatology, and internal medicine. Having spent my childhood in China, I communicate fluently in Japanese, Chinese, English, and Korean. Possessing an international perspective—evidenced by invitations to present at overseas conferences—I actively promote techniques as a Key Opinion Leader (KOL) for GOURI and REJURAN®. My specialty procedures include double eyelid surgery, skin-nurturing boosters, and body hyaluronic acid treatments. My approach leverages the holistic understanding of the body cultivated through internal medicine to guide patients toward natural, healthy beauty.
I want to improve the sagging of my eyelids, but..."I don't know what kind of treatment is right for me."Many people find themselves unsure.
The appearance of forehead wrinkles, the width of double eyelids, and the position of eyebrows—the state of the eyelids varies from person to person. Naturally, the procedure you should choose will also differ.
This time, Dr. Senki Akashi of BIANCA CLINIC explains how to determine the appropriate treatment based on your condition.
If wrinkles appear on your forehead when opening your eyes, "ptosis" or "incision double eyelid surgery" are also options.
If wrinkles only appear on your forehead when you open your eyes,It may be due to weakened eyelid lifting strength or the position of the double eyelid line.
・Weak eyelid opening → Improve eyelid opening with ptosis surgery
・Single eyelid + excess skin → "Double eyelid surgery + skin excision" to refine the crease and tighten sagging skin
Depending on the cause of the symptoms, a fundamental approach to eyelid drooping is possible.

For those with stable double eyelids, adjustments can be made through a "forehead lift" or "brow lift."
For those with well-defined double eyelids who are only concerned about skin laxity, a forehead lift or brow lift may be an option.
・The entire eyelid skin is sagging ・Forehead wrinkles are also a concern → Forehead lift
・Concerned about sunken eyelids ・Only the skin under the eyebrows is sagging → Brow Lift
We aim for a natural finish while considering the balance of the facial structure and the distance between the eyebrows and eyes.
