Is there any disadvantage to having the eyelid surgery before the browlift?

Asked By:Genuine804161 in İstanbul, Türkiye

Im a male, My doctors recommend that I have eyelid surgery, and some of them also suggest I may need a brow lift. However, I'm uncertain about the necessity of the brow lift. It's important to note that lifting the brows by 2 mm can reduce the sagging skin on the eyelids, meaning the surgeon would need to remove less skin. If I start with eyelid surgery alone, the surgeon might have to remove more skin. and after this, if i go for brow lift, is thing going to cause a problem?
