Eyebrow lift: beautiful eyebrows at last
As an expression of politeness, interest and appreciation, conversation partners look each other in the eye. The eyes make a decisive first impression and convey many forms of expression such as joy, sadness and surprise. Scientific studies prove that eye contact increases physical arousal and harmonizes the brain activity of those involved. The messages conveyed by the eyes include the shape and position of the eyebrows and the size of the eyes. Long, thick eyelashes and smooth skin look youthful and beguiling.

The shape and position of the eyebrows
The ideal eyebrow shape and position varies between men and women. The average distance from the upper edge of the eyebrow to the hairline is five centimeters for women and six centimeters for men. In women, the eyebrows start above the inner corner of the eye and protrude slightly beyond the outer corner of the eye. The eyebrows tend to have a thicker central section and a thin lateral section. Lateral, rising eyebrows are perceived as youthful and attractive in women. In men, the eyebrows are flatter and more pronounced on the sides. In women, the highest point of the eyebrow moves outwards with increasing age and an imaginary line between the two corners of the eye falls to the side. The decreasing elasticity of the skin and connective tissue reduces the eye opening by around ten percent from the age of 20 to 60.
The shape and position of the eyebrows vary greatly depending on age, gender and ethnicity. The beauty ideals of eyebrows are influenced by culture and current fashion trends. There are no ideal, universally valid beauty characteristics. Younger people under the age of 30 prefer low and slightly angled eyebrows, while older people prefer more arched eyebrows. A change to the eyebrows should not only take into account personal characteristics, but also harmonize with adjacent regions such as the forehead, eyelids, corners of the eyes and temples.

What eyebrow correction techniques do we offer?
Forehead lift
In a forehead lift, the tissue is tightened either in front of the hairline on the forehead or behind the hairline and excess tissue is removed. The advantage of this technique is that:
- frown lines and frown lines can be removed.
This technique is not suitable for patients with a high hairline or thinning hair.
Keyhole technique for lifting the eyebrows
The keyhole (endoscopic) methods for lifting the forehead leave smaller scars. However, excess skin cannot be removed. With the shot hole technique, you can:
- The eyebrows are raised.
- Frown lines can be corrected.
Lifting the eyebrows during an eyelid lift
The approach of an upper eyelid lift also allows the eyebrows to be raised or fixed without additional skin incisions. The technology is suitable for:
- Lifting the eyebrows, and for
- Correction of frown lines.
