    2. Patients with forehead lines, frown lines or crow's feet:

    Regardless of the distance between the pupil and the upper edge of the eyebrows, an endoscopic facelift can be considered, which can not only correct the drooping eyelids, but also eliminate wrinkles, and can have the effect of being 10 to 15 years younger.

    3. If the eyebrow drooping is not serious, and the distance between the pupil and the upper edge of the eyebrow is more than 2.5 cm, the upper eyelid correction surgery, which is generally called double eyelid surgery, can have good results
