Sub-brow lift in Gangnam, Seoul at Marble Plastic Surgery: lift sagging upper eyelids through an incision hidden under the eyebrow, keeping your natural eye shape.
Typical ranges for sub-brow lift; your surgeon confirms the details at consultation.
What is a sub-brow lift?
A sub-brow lift is surgery that removes a strip of skin just beneath the eyebrow to lift sagging upper eyelids while keeping your existing eyelid crease and eye shape. At Marble Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, Seoul, it is performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon.
Because the skin near the brow is thicker than eyelid skin, removing it there avoids the heavy or operated look that can follow large upper-lid excisions. The incision follows the lower border of the brow, where the hairs help conceal it.
Who is a sub-brow lift for?
Suitability is decided at a 1:1 consultation with your surgeon.
- Sagging upper eyelids, especially at the outer side
- Thick upper-eyelid skin
- People who like their current crease and want a subtle change
- Those who have had eyelid surgery and do not want the crease altered
How a sub-brow lift is performed at Marble
- Consultation and planning Your surgeon measures eyelid droop and brow position and marks the incision along the lower edge of your eyebrow.
- Anesthesia and monitoring A board-certified anesthesiologist selects the anesthesia with your surgeon, administers it, and monitors you continuously throughout the procedure.
- Lifting from beneath the brow A crescent of skin is removed below the eyebrow, the deeper tissue is anchored to prevent the brow from descending, and the incision is closed in layers.
- Recovery and discharge You rest in a private recovery room under monitoring. Before you leave, the team explains wound care, medication and your follow-up schedule.
Recovery and aftercare
Swelling is usually modest. Stitches are removed after about a week, and the scar line under the brow fades over the following months.
- Swelling injection and regenerative LED laser in the first week
- Milia removal at checkups
- 1-year revision guarantee
- Unlimited surgeon-checked scar injections
- Recovery kit to take home

Who is a sub-brow lift best for?
People with drooping, thick upper-eyelid skin who want to keep their natural eye shape, including those who already have a crease they like.
Sub-brow lift or forehead lift?
A sub-brow lift removes eyelid skin only. A forehead lift raises the brow and smooths forehead lines. Your surgeon recommends one based on brow position.
