If wrinkles, which can be seen as traces of time, appear, it can make you look older, and the image you project can change significantly. Therefore, many people who have developed such wrinkles have become self-conscious about their appearance.

Those who have wrinkles on their forehead often worry that they might look tired or give off a dark impression, regardless of their actual condition. Because of this, they often pay a lot of attention to skincare in order to improve this. However, even with consistent care, forehead wrinkles that have already formed do not easily go away, which is why people have started looking into forehead wrinkle correction.

As the elasticity of the forehead area decreases, the muscles around the eyes can become more pronounced, which can also contribute to the development of wrinkles. It is important to address this in advance.

For most people, when it comes to wrinkle correction, procedures such as fillers or Botox are most commonly thought of.

However, these methods not only provide limited effects but also lack long-term sustainability. For those who value lasting results, it is important to consider external procedures like forehead wrinkle correction surgery.

Principle of Forehead Lift

Principle of Forehead Lift due to Aging of Muscles Around the Eyes

The position of the eyebrows is determined by the balance between the muscles that lift the eyebrows and the muscles that lower them. The principle of a forehead lift can be understood as weakening the strength of the muscles that lower the eyebrows (the depressor muscles of the eyebrows) and loosening the tight structures that fix the eyebrows in place, which helps maintain the lifted position of the eyebrows.

When performing a forehead lift, depending on the case, various degrees of resection or release are applied to the corrugator muscle, depressor supercilii muscle, procerus muscle, and orbicularis oculi muscle. It is important to release the fixation structures just enough as necessary. If the muscles or fixation structures are excessively resected or released, the facial expression may become unnatural, so it is crucial to perform the procedure only to the necessary extent.
