The position and contour of the eyebrow changes with age. Genetics, gravity, loss of skin elasticity, fat deflation, and activity of muscles around the eyebrow effect eyebrow position and contour.
A brow lift can help reverse the effects of gravity and help tighten the soft tissues to restore a more youthful contour to your upper eyelids, and eyebrows.
Brow lifting is not only performed for aesthetic reasons. In many cases, the drooping of the brow can actually affect vision and appropriate brow lifting can improve the lateral visual field significantly.
Types of Brow Lifts:
1) Endoscopic Brow Lift use small incisions in your scalp to lift the brows to a higher position. By carefully using an endoscope to visualize the surgery through the small incisions made in the scalp.
2) Temporal Brow Lift: Incisions about 2cm long are made just above each temple, behind the hairline.This procedure elevates the lateral portion of the brow to allow for a more naturally appearing brow contour in those that have a flattened brow contour with age.
3) Brow Pexy:This procedure is indicated for mild brow ptosis if blepharoplasty is also being considered. It is ideal for those patients who are also undergoing upper blepharoplasty and have mild eyebrow ptosis, not requiring the raising of the brow; rather they need support to prevent its descent over time.
4) Direct Brow Lifts:This is a powerful and effective lift which offered excellent and enduring outcomes. Usually direct brow lift performs in those individuals with severe brow ptosis or males with very heavy brows. An incision is made above the lateral portion of the eyebrows .The downside is that there is a scar along the upper brow line. The scar is usually very light, but in patients with very thin brow hair, this can be noticeable.
