Let’s just say that we can really always believe in the rejuvenation ability of Korean women.

Two days ago, I saw a video of Choi Ji Woo participating in an event. She has long straight black hair and a black dress, showing her elegance.

In the sheep's impression, she had experienced cliff-like aging before and her facial collapse was extremely exaggerated. Compared with now, she is completely different. The speed of her rejuvenation must be too amazing.

has been constantly controversial since her comeback. As the first-generation Korean drama queen and tearjerker, it is not easy to give birth to a daughter at the age of 44. The most intense dispute is that her husband was raped by Cowherd Brother.

Fortunately, my original intention is still the same, and my career is booming. You can tell whether you are happy or not by looking at your status.

is now 49 years old, and her daily photos on Instagram are even more vivid. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is 29 years old. She does not look like someone who is about to turn fifty.

If I have to find fault, it’s the condition around my eyes.

As we all know, as most people age, their facial features and contours can be quickly adjusted, but aging in the eye area is difficult to repair.

sisters, have you discovered it? Whether you have single eyelids, double eyelids, swollen eyelids or thin eyelids, they all have a common aging feature👇.

The shape of the eyes changed from round and upward, with a sense of vitality and fullness, to a triangular shape with a slightly drooping upper eyelid line.

For example, the double eyelids become narrower, and the trend changes from upward to drooping;

Another example is the round, full almond eyes, which change into splayed eyes.

In fact, the underlying logic of eye aging such as dull eyes, pressed eyebrows, loose eyelids, multi-layered eyelids, sunken eye sockets can be understood to be caused by weak levator muscles.

Don't take it for granted that levator weakness is a problem for middle-aged and elderly people. Nowadays, more and more young people are suffering from excessive eye use, daily eye makeup, contact lenses and double eyelids, etc. You will also face levator muscle weakness.

For example, many sisters are troubled by dull eyes, looking dull and tired in daily life, or not being photogenic when taking photos.

I want to improve but don’t know how to make efforts. I always feel that it is an unsolvable problem?

Different types and causes of levator muscle weakness require different solutions. Some people need levator muscle correction, some need thermal therapy on their foreheads, some people need to lift their eyebrows without making their eyes look ugly, and some people just need hyaluronic acid eyebrow filling. A bow will do the trick.

So today, Sheep is here to talk to you about the aging condition that almost everyone will face - levator muscle weakness.

What is levator weakness?

The levator palpebrae superioris is an important muscle in the upper eyelids and is responsible for opening the eyes.

Levator muscle weakness, also commonly called ptosis, , refers to the insufficiency or loss of this muscle, resulting in insufficient strength and degree to raise the upper eye and face, that is, insufficient ability to open the eyes, and the pupil is partially blocked.

Some people are born with bilateral levator muscle weakness, while others have unilateral levator muscle weakness, resulting in more obvious big and small eyes. The above myogenic conditions are all true levator muscle weakness.

There are also some people whose eyes are not small themselves, but levator weakness will make their eyes appear smaller than they actually are, giving people a feeling of being unable to open their eyes and having no energy. This is pseudolevator weakness.

Regardless of whether it is true or false, the impact of levator weakness on appearance and temperament is very obvious.

Many people who are judged as lackluster, tired, or looking aggressive and unapproachable may have problems with excessive occlusion of the upper eyelids due to weakness of the levator muscles.

This problem of upper eyelids easily covering the eyes has a lot to do with the eye characteristics of Asians.

The less supportive eye sockets and shallower eye sockets make it easy for skin, muscles, septa and other tissues to accumulate around the eyes, which also determines the degree of ptosis in Asians.

Take double eyelids as an example. The double eyelid line of Asians (double eyelid line) is often partially covered. Compared with the larger and wider double eyelid line of Europeans, it shows a soft and slender feature.

However, if you cover it too much, you may not be able to see the double eyelids, or the double eyelids on one side may be clear and the double eyelids on the other side may be narrow, which results in partial ptosis.

Most people have a misunderstanding, thinking that levator muscle weakness is innate?

In fact, not all of them are born. As age increases and normal eye aging occurs, levator muscle weakness and ptosis will occur.

As mentioned earlier, levator muscle weakness is also common among those who wear contact lenses for a long time, frequently use eye drops containing glucocorticoids, or have undergone inner eye surgery.

So, how to judge whether you have levator muscle weakness?

The simplest method is to use your fingers to firmly press the muscles above the eyebrows so that they cannot exert force👇.

Then try to open your eyes. The extent to which your eyes can be opened at this time is the degree of ptosis.

Generally speaking, moderate to severe sagging requires treatment.

Especially for developing children, due to weakness of the levator muscles, the visual range of the eyes is insufficient, which will affect the vision development.

In addition, due to weakness of the levator muscle, which results in the inability to open the eyes, people often use the power of the frontalis muscle to compensate by lifting the eyebrows to open the eyes.

This habit of inadvertently using the forehead to raise the eyes over the years will also aggravate the pulling of the eyebrows and the lines on the forehead, which is one of the reasons why forehead wrinkles appear at a young age.

More importantly, as age increases, the levator palpebrae superioris muscle will undergo degenerative changes, the aponeurosis will be over-stretched, and after losing elasticity, the eyelids will droop.

Coupled with the thickening of the accumulation in the upper eyes, the eyelids cannot lift, and the eye muscles are not strong enough, causing the eyelids to droop and droop, which is an aging condition that almost everyone will face.
