- Short-term effects: Immediately after surgery or injection, the brow ridge will show noticeable elevation, improving facial contours and making the eyes appear deeper and more vibrant.
- Long-term effects: With implant insertion, results can be maintained long-term provided no complications arise. For injectable fillers, hyaluronic acid typically lasts about 6 to 12 months, while autologous fat grafts offer lasting results once the fat cells successfully survive.
Suitable for the following individuals:
- Those with low or sunken brow ridges, resulting in a lack of facial definition.
- Those who wish to improve the appearance of their eyes to make them look more vibrant.
- Individuals with congenital underdevelopment of the brow ridge.
- Those with abnormal brow ridge shape due to trauma or other causes.
For prosthetic implant surgery, it is necessary to choose appropriate surgical instruments, such as scalpels, forceps, and hemostatic clamps. These instruments should possess excellent sharpness and durability and must undergo strict sterilization procedures. For injectable fillers, professional syringes are required to ensure the precision and safety of the injection.

The cost of brow ridge augmentation varies significantly depending on the method used:
- Implant insertion: Generally ranges from approximately 1,500,000 to 5,600,000 KRW, with imported implants being more expensive.
- Hyaluronic acid injection: Prices range from 370,000 to 1,850,000 KRW, depending on the brand and dosage.
- Autologous fat grafting: The cost is approximately 930,000 to 2,800,000 KRW.
Brow bone augmentation can make the brow ridge more defined and enhance overall facial aesthetics, but results may vary depending on individual facial structure and surgical technique. It is important to maintain realistic expectations and avoid setting them too high to prevent psychological disappointment.
Brow bone augmentation can be performed in conjunction with eye procedures (such as double eyelid surgery and epicanthoplasty) or rhinoplasty to achieve better overall facial improvement. For example, combining brow bone augmentation with rhinoplasty can enhance the three-dimensionality of the facial midline.
Infection: If sterilization is not strictly maintained during surgery or injection, it may lead to infection, manifested as local redness, swelling, pain, and fever.
Prosthesis Displacement: After prosthesis implantation, improper fixation or external impact may cause displacement, resulting in abnormal brow ridge morphology.
Allergic Reaction to Injectables: Some individuals may be allergic to injectable substances such as hyaluronic acid, experiencing symptoms like rashes and itching.
Fat Liquefaction: After autologous fat grafting, fat liquefaction may occur, leading to the formation of local hard nodules.
In addition to the aforementioned side effects such as infection and allergies, local swelling and bruising may also occur, which generally subside on their own within a certain period after the procedure.
For injection fillers, it is important to choose certified syringes and needles. Some advanced injection devices can improve the precision and uniformity of injections, reducing the occurrence of complications. When selecting equipment, ensure that it has relevant medical device certifications.

If symptoms such as localized redness, swelling, increased pain, or fever occur after surgery, it may indicate an infection. If you notice a sudden change in the shape of your brow ridge, it could be due to issues like implant displacement or fat liquefaction. In case of any abnormal symptoms, seek medical attention promptly.
When choosing a treatment plan, communicate thoroughly with your doctor to understand the advantages and disadvantages of each option. Based on your facial condition, personal needs, and physical health, your doctor will develop the most suitable treatment plan for you.
