Brow Lift at 22?

I am a 22 year old female and have been considering an endo brow lift for years now ..Im unhappy with my eyebrows and would like them to be higher which is more attractive to me.. am I too young to undergo this procedure? and will it last or will my brows 'drop' as I read this is a common thing that happens following an endo browlift? Thanks in advance for your answer!

A: browlift options

Browlift is a great surgical procedure for the aging upper face, but age 22 is too young to consider this option.  The endoscopic browlift technique is less invasive, however the results lack the longevity of an open browlift.  Within a few years after endoscopic browlift, it is common for the drooping to recur.  If you feel absolutely compelled to make any changes in your upper face at this age, I would recommend trying Botox or Dysport, which will give a temporary (3 month) lift to this area when properly injected.

Hair Loss After Brow and Face and Neck Lift

Can you tell me how common it is to have some hair loss particularly on the sides of the head with a strip of thinning hair just past the incision line from a lateral brow lift, face lift and neck lift. I also have about a little larger than a nickel size bald spot now further down that line from the incision. I have this on both sides but really my left side is worse than my right side. Thanks Vicki

A: Hair loss is not infrequently a sequelae of brow and face lifts.

Hair loss especially early after extended face and brow lifts is not an uncommon sequelae.  However it will usually return with time.  It is more frequent in patients who begin with thin hair or have "tight" foreheads and scalps.

Fortunately it usually will recover with time. If it does not, the options are micrografting or reexcision and closure.

Internal Brow Lift with Upper Eyelid Surgery?

I have interviewed several doctors concerning surgery on my upper eyelids. All of them said I would only need excess skin removed but one of them suggested doing an internal brow lift at the same time. I am already nervous about this operation and don't want to do anything that would add more risk or a longer recovery time. Would having an internal brow lift do this? Also, if my brows are sutured to my forehead will it look strange as I continue to age?

A: Most surgeons have a "love/hate relationship with the brow lift There are many ways to do a brow lift, but all of them add additional recovery, expense, and possible complications to upper eyelid surgery. However, there are many patients who must have a brow lift to achieve a great result. Unfortunately it is difficult to add a brow lift after a upper lid blepharoplasty for some time due to the possibility of lids that do not close. If done at the same time, the surgeon can adjust accordingly. The consensus seems to be that most surgeons can give you a result without the brow lift so the best way forward may be to return to the one you favor who does not recommend the brow lift and tell him of the others recommendation.
