In the field of modern medical beauty, eyebrow lifting surgery has become an important way to improve sagging upper eyelids, reduce inter-brow lines, and shape young eyes. Compared with traditional eyebrow lifting, Mini Brow Lift is gradually favored by more and more beauty seekers because of its small wound, fast recovery and natural effect.
This article will analyze mini eyebrow lifting from multiple angles to help you understand whether this surgery is suitable for you.
What is Mini Brow Lift?
Mini Brow Lift, also known as small incision eyebrow lifting, is a surgical method that gently lifts drooping eyebrows and upper eyelids through a small incision and minimally invasive way to improve eye aging.
Unlike traditional comprehensive eyebrow lift, it does not require a large-scale incision, but makes small incisions near the hairline or above the eyebrow, and uses sutures or lifting to achieve eyebrow lift.
The biggest feature of this surgery is:
The wound is small, usually only 2–3 cm.
The recovery period is short, and you can usually resume your daily life by 1-2 weeks.
The effect is natural and there will be no overly provocative or stiffness.
Who Is Mini Brow Lift Best For?
Mini eyebrow lift is not for everyone, it is better for people with mild to moderate eyebrow sagging:
Slight sagging of the upper eyelid
The eyelids block part of the eyes, but have not yet seriously affected the line of sight.
Hope to improve eye fatigue
Drooping eyebrows can easily make people look tired or older, and can restore their spirits after lifting their eyebrows.
Young people's early anti-aging
Some young people can improve the lines of their eyebrows by mini-lifting their eyebrows.
People who are reluctant to undergo major surgery
Compared with traditional eyebrow lifting or full skin lifting, Mini Brow Lift is a small invasive surgery with less trauma and low risk, and is more suitable for people who try medical beauty surgery for the first time.
Unsuitable people
People with severe sagging eyebrows and obvious skin sagging have limited results and may require a complete skin retraction surgery.
Such surgery is not recommended for people with coagulation disorders or severe skin diseases.
Mini Brow Lift's surgical method
Mini eyebrow lifting surgery is not a single method, but a general term. Different doctors will choose the most appropriate minimally invasive solution based on the degree of eyebrow sagging, eye skin status and overall facial proportion. Several common methods are as follows:
1. Endoscope-assisted small incision eyebrow lift
Operation principle:
Make a small incision of 2-3 cm on the inner side of the hairline or at the forehead, use an endoscopic device to enter, separate the tissues at the forehead and under the eyebrow, lift the loose tissue upwards, and then lift the eyebrows by suturing or fixing them in a higher position.
advantage:
Less trauma, quick recovery
The incision is hidden inside the hairline, and the scars are almost invisible
Improve the effect evenly, and the overall look is natural and young
shortcoming:
Limited improvement for people with severe sagging
Need a professional doctor to operate, high equipment requirements
2. Minimally invasive eyebrow lift
Operation principle:
Make a small incision where the upper edge of the eyebrow is close to the eyebrow shape, remove a small amount of loose skin, then lift up and suture. In this way, you can raise your eyebrows while shortening the excess skin of your upper eyelids.
advantage:
The improvement is obvious, the effect is immediate
Can remove some excess skin at the same time and improve upper eyelid relaxation
Simple operation, relatively short recovery period
shortcoming:
Incisions are on the edge of the eyebrow, scars need time to fade
Not suitable for people with naturally higher eyebrows, otherwise it is easy to appear unnatural
3. Mini eyebrow lift with under-eye incision
Operation principle:
Incite the lower edge of the eyebrow to remove some excess skin, and then stitch it upwards to shorten the distance between the eyebrow and eyelids. Unlike an incision of the eyebrow, the scars of the under-eye incision are more likely to be hidden under the eyebrows.
advantage:
The incision is hidden and scars are easily covered;
It can improve swollen eyelids and make your eyes more energetic;
Can be combined with open eye corners or double eyelid surgery.
shortcoming:
Limited improvement
Not very helpful to people with low eyebrows
Thread lift for mini eyebrow lift
Operation principle:
Eyebrow lift is achieved by burying absorbable lifting lines near the eyebrows or hairline, pulling upwards the relaxed tissue. The wire used is often PDO or PCL, which can stimulate collagen production.
advantage:
No incision required, almost no recovery period
Short operation process, only 30-40 minutes
Natural effect, suitable for temporary needs (such as before weddings, events)
shortcoming:
The effect is short, usually 6-12 months
Limited lifting range
Temporary convexity may occur
Mini Brow Lift's surgical procedure
Preoperative evaluation
The doctor will evaluate the eyebrow position, eyelid sagging, and overall facial proportions, and communicate with the beauty seeker to expect the effect.
Before the formal operation, the doctor will communicate with the patient to understand the following situations:
Facial basics: eyebrow position, eyelid relaxation degree, double eyelid shape.
Overall proportional analysis: the proportional relationship between eyebrows, eyes, forehead, whether it is necessary to combine double eyelid or eyelid surgery.
Patient needs: Some people want higher eyebrow curvature, while others just want to fine-tune the end of the eyebrow.
Anaesthetization
Local anesthesia is usually used, and the surgical procedure is basically painless.
Incision and lift
Doctors make small incisions in the designed location to lift eyebrows by suturing, fixing or removing part of the skin.
Suture and bandage
After the incision is sutured, the surgical area will be bandaged to prevent swelling.
Pull the eyebrow and surrounding loose tissue upwards and adjust according to the design height;
Stable the eyebrows in the ideal position by suturing, anchoring or wire fixing;
Be careful not to lift too much to avoid "surprised face" or stiff eyebrows.
Postoperative recovery
Usually the thread can be removed in about 1 week, and basically recovers to nature in 2 weeks.
Advantages of Mini Brow Lift
Small wounds, quick recovery
Compared with traditional large incision surgery, mini eyebrow lifting requires only 2-3 cm incision, which has a short recovery period and a small impact on life.
Natural effects
The lifting range is moderate and there will be no excessive uptick or stiffness.
Scar concealed
The incision is usually hidden in the eyebrows or hairline and is almost invisible after recovery.
Suitable for people with mild problems
For people with mild sagging and early aging, the ideal effect can be achieved.
Limitations of Mini Brow Lift
Limited effect
For people with severe sagging or obvious sagging of the skin, the effect is not as good as traditional eyebrow lifting or comprehensive skin pulling.
Limited maintenance time
Generally, it will last for 3-5 years, and some people may need to make subsequent adjustments.
Complication risk
Although the risk is low, swelling, bruising, temporary numbness, etc. may still occur.
