I just turned 13 days ago and had a surgery called "mini-eye lift". Let me talk about my feelings.

I have always wanted to do eyebrow lift surgery on my upper eyelids, but after seeing some good and bad brow lift surgery cases online, my heart is wavering. Some sisters said that they can also do it at a local beauty salon. It can be done, but after all, a large piece of skin is removed above the eyes. I would rather have the surgery be successful in one go and not have to worry about it again and again and leave myself with regrets.

Like many sisters, I searched for information online for a long time and after reading countless cases, I finally came to Beijing for a face-to-face consultation and surgery.

As someone who has undergone fascial suspension brow lift surgery, I would like to share with you the changes around my eyes.

Before the operation

Before the operation, I originally had the “Mom-style” natural small fan-shaped double eyelids, which felt natural and fresh, and also fit my personal temperament. .

But the traces of time have indeed become serious. I am only 49 years old this year. The skin of the upper eyelids is loose and hanging down, stacked in the folds of the double eyelids, blocking the double eyelids from the head to the end of the eyes. Significant sagging.

After being covered by loose bark, the skin sags downwards more seriously.

You can feel your age just by looking at these eyes.

Face-to-face communication

I am very satisfied with the original shape of my double eyelids. I don’t want to change the shape anymore. I just want to restore the original appearance of my eyes when I was young.

But I am worried that like other people on the Internet have said, after eyebrow lift surgery, the eyelids will droop again less than half a year or less than one or two years later.

During the face-to-face consultation, I communicated my thoughts with the doctor in detail. The doctor’s suggestion was to perform fascial suspension brow lift surgery.

Because only peeling is performed, only the epidermal layer can be treated, and the deep fascial layer is not treated.

After lifting, reducing and fixing the SMAS layer of the real fascia, the lifted state of the upper eyelids will truly achieve firmness and youthfulness.

Surgery process

After a series of procedures such as pre-operative tests were completed, I felt at ease and everything was normal, so I underwent the surgery. Ten minutes before the operation, I heard that the anesthesia was painful, but when the acting director gave me the anesthesia, his technique was very gentle and it really didn't hurt much. It made me nervous for a while.

Postoperative observation

I was in good condition immediately after the operation. After the doctor looked at me, I was bandaged and the nurse sent me back to the ward for observation for about 30 minutes. After the director checked and found nothing wrong, I went home to rest.

Postoperative recovery

I have kept detailed records of this process. I am a person with a strong sense of ritual. This is my first time to undergo facial plastic surgery. Preoperative and postoperative changes need to be recorded in detail. It was a good experience.

The postoperative results were exactly as the doctor said. There was some swelling for the first three days, and the swelling began to subside on the fourth day. When the sutures were removed on the seventh day, the swelling had actually subsided by 80%. By the 13th day, there was only a slight redness left.

The original natural-looking double eyelids have reappeared without any sense of tightness. I can open and close my eyes freely, the swelling disappears quickly, and the scars are so light that they are almost invisible. This is what I want most. desired status.

This is my complete recovery process after coming to Beijing for fascial suspension brow lift surgery. Overall, I am satisfied with the surgery and recovery process.

The doctor said: Everyone has different basic conditions around the eyes. After sagging and aging, the skin condition, degree of sagging, eye shape and other details will be different. A face-to-face consultation is required to design a reasonable aesthetic plan for rejuvenating the eye area based on the current actual condition of the eye area.
