Forehead and Brow Surgery
An often neglected area of facial rejuvenation is the upper face or brow. With age we can see a lowering of the eyebrows with hooding of the upper eyelids. Excessive frowning can pull the medial brow down dramatically causing an angry appearance. Utililizing modern endoscopic techniques and minimal incisions, the brow can be repositioned back to its original position. The frown muscles (corrugators) are weakened or eliminated during the procedure, which is an added bonus. This may all be accomplished WITHOUT creating a surprised overdone appearance. In a large percentage of patients Botox will no longer be necessary to control the frown lines.
Face + Endoscopic Eyebrow Lift - Patient 1 + Endoscopic / Blepharoplasty
This woman complained that she felt that she always appeared “angry.” This was a result of over-activity in the muscles surrounding her eyebrows which caused deep lines and descent of her eyebrows. She underwent an endoscopic eyebrow lift which weakened the over-active muscles from the inside, allowing her eyebrows be positioned in a more youthful position. This was all done through the use of a small camera and small incisions hidden within her hair.
