Symptoms/Indications

• Sagging or low-positioned eyebrows that create a tired, sad, or angry appearance
• Deep horizontal forehead wrinkles
• Frown lines or vertical creases between the eyebrows (glabellar lines)
• Excess skin hanging over the eyes
• Asymmetrical brows
• Desire for a more youthful and alert appearance

Treatments

Endoscopic Brow Lift:
• Minimally invasive technique using an endoscope (a small camera) and tiny incisions.
• Small incisions are made behind the hairline.
• The endoscope allows the surgeon to see and adjust the underlying tissues.
• Excess tissue is removed or repositioned, and the brow is lifted.

Coronal Brow Lift:
• Involves a longer incision made behind the hairline, from ear to ear across the top of the head.
• The forehead skin is lifted, and excess skin is removed.
• Provides a significant lift but is less commonly used due to the longer incision.

Temporal (Limited) Brow Lift:
• Focuses on lifting the outer parts of the eyebrows.
• Shorter incisions are made within the hairline at the temples.
• Suitable for patients needing mild to moderate elevation.

Direct Brow Lift:
• Incisions are made directly above the eyebrows.
• Excess skin is removed, and the brows are lifted.
• Often used in patients with significant brow drooping and when scarring can be well-concealed.

Procedure

Consultation:
• Comprehensive evaluation by a plastic surgeon to discuss goals, expectations, and medical history.
• Determining the most appropriate technique based on individual needs and desired outcomes.

A brow lift can significantly rejuvenate the upper face, creating a more youthful and refreshed look. It is essential to have realistic expectations and follow the surgeon’s advice for optimal outcomes. Regular follow-ups and adherence to post-operative care ensure the best possible results and longevity of the surgery's effects.
