Brow Lift Gallery

A woman in her late 50’s who is bothered by drooping of her eyebrows and an aged appearance of her eyes. She has prominent “tear trough” deformities and under eye “bags”.
She is shown before and again, 4 ½ months after an open brow lift, upper lid blepharoplasty and lower eyelid blepharoplasty with fat pad transposition into the tear trough area. She holds her left brow slightly lower before and after her surgery. She is thrilled with the more youthful but still natural appearance after surgery.

Not a brow lift, but the use of the endoscopic approach that we use for an endoscopic brow lift to remove a submuscular lipoma of the forehead in a young woman in her early 20’s. The typical approach is to make an incision if a forehead crease, but she does not have a forehead crease to help camouflage a scar of this type. So the lipoma ( a benign tumor composed of fatty tissue) was removed through two small incisions in the scalp using the endoscope. She is shown just before and again, 6 weeks after surgery.

A woman in her early 60’s who is having difficulty with her vision at night because her upper eyelids and brows are blocking her vision. As we age we “deflate” and the brows and eyelids come down. She is shown before and again, 6 weeks after an endoscopic brow lift, combined with upper lid blepharoplasty. At first glance it may not appear that her brows are elevated. But the brows are penciled in and a mole on her left temple is shown to be pulled up from the brow lift. A blepharoplasty alone would not have appeared as natural because it would not address the drooping of her eyebrows. Her visual obstruction is corrected and she looks more rested as well.

A woman in her early 60’s with obstruction of her vision from brow ptosis and eyelid skin hanging down. She is shown before and again, 6 week after an endoscopic brow lift and bilateral upper eyelid blepharoplasty. She has a refreshed look after surgery.

A woman in her mid to late 60’s who is bothered by an aged appearance. She is shown before and again, 5 months after an endoscopic brow lift, upper eyelid blepharoplasty, fat grafting to the cheeks and lips, Facelift with lateral Smasectomy and peri-oral dermabrasion. Her results will be limited somewhat because of decreased skin elasticity- the “fabric” that we are working with. Nonetheless, she has a dramatic and natural appearing improvement at 5 months. Skin quality is somewhat better with the fat grafting. The dermabrasion is a tried and true technique that can give improvement of the lines around the mouth but with less risk of bleaching that can be seen with laser or deep chemical peels.
