Is There an Option To Raise Just The Inner Corners During a Brow Lift?

I dislike the angle of my eyebrows. They're lower at the inner corners, and when I relax my forehead make me look angry. I'm young, so this isn't a problem of sagging. Is there any way I can raise only the inner parts of my eyebrows without lifting my entire forehead? I prefer a more smooth/flat/angling downwards kind of look.

A: lifting the inner brow- beware! Brow lifts must respect inner brow position!

This is absolutely possible but almost never indicated.  most peole benefit from lateral elevation but medial elevation almost always will result in a perplexed or surprised look.  you need to be evaluated by a plastic and reconstructive surgeon who is well versed in periorbital aesthetics.  Be very careful with making changes to your medial brow as medial brow separation and elevation are difficult to correct.

 

 

All the best,

Hollowness Under Brows 1 Year After Brow Pexy. Could This Have Been Prevented? How To Correct? (photo)

I had a brow pexy over a year ago. I now have very hollow areas directly under my brows. What could have been done to prevent this. How can it be permanently fixed? I am a 52 year old female.

A: Brow pixy lead to hollow

This would not be unheard of depending upon the technique used.  Since the degree of hollow appears minor, I would discuss this with your plastic surgeon and probably correct this with micro droplet fat injections.  Good luck. Dr. Schuster from Boca Raton

Surgical Correction or Not to Correct Lagophthalmos from Brow Lift?

Fourteen months ago I had a brow lift (endotine implants). I now have lagothalmos in both eyes, (left eye 2mm short). I have mild upper lid asym. The "lago" caused chronic dry eye and I need ongoing treatment. My surgeon recommends lowering brows some to recover eye lid coverage. The more affected eye has slightly lower brow, not a correlation. My Opthamologist says surgery could make it worse. He recommends plugs or gold implants for affected eye. I have cosmetic and health concerns. Help!

A: Correction of lagopthalmos

There are several ways to go about trying to correct this problem, altho I have never seen a case where an endo brow was able to left the lids that much without an aggressive upper lid blepharoplasty.  In plastic surgery we like to take a ladder approach.  Try the simple things first, you don't need an atom bomb to kill an ant.  I would try botox in the forhead to relax the brow.  If this works then you will need to go every 3-4 months for botox.  The next styep would probably be releasing the brows and endotines endoscopically and letting the brow go back to its original height.  This would also be good to do while there is a botox effect to let the brow drop as needed.  I would probably save the gold weight procedure as a last resort.  Make sure the problem is the brow and not over resection of eyelid skin.  Good luck, Dr. Schuster in Boca Raton
