Eyelid Lift Surgery in Seoul
What Is Eyelid Lift Surgery?
An eyelid lift (upper blepharoplasty or ptosis correction, depending on anatomy) tightens the tissues of the upper eyelid to improve:
- Droopy or sagging eyelids
- Hooded upper-lid skin
- A tired or aged expression
- Reduced eye openness
- Asymmetry between both eyes
- Excess skin that affects crease visibility
It restores a brighter and more lifted upper eyelid contour.
What Eyelid Lift Surgery Can Improve
Patients typically seek an eyelid lift to:
- Make the eyes look more open and alert
- Reduce heaviness on the upper lids
- Refresh the overall facial expression
- Improve eyelid symmetry
- Create or refine a natural eyelid crease
- Correct functional drooping (ptosis)
- Enhance makeup visibility and smoothness
The goal is natural rejuvenation, not dramatic reshaping.
