Brow Lift Vs Forehead Lift: What's the Difference?

I know this seems like a silly question, but I see both terms used and am not sure if they're the same surgery...

A: Browlift is commonly referred to as a forehead lift

A brow lift, also referred to as a forehead lift, is a procedure designed to lift the eyebrows. There are different methods of performing the lift. They vary by where the incisions are placed and what part of the eyebrow is lifted.  These lifts can be performed from the scalp, the hairline, the temples, and even from the incisions of an upper eyelid blepharoplasty.

Are my Eyes and Eyebrows Asymmetric and What Can Be Done to Fix It?

I think my eyes and eyebrows are asymmetric. Also, my eyes seem to be droopy.Can you please confirm whether I am right by looking at the pictures? If yes, what is the best way to fix it. Please note: 1. I am in middle of loosing weight. I started at 215 pounds and now am at 182 lbs. 2. My glasses needs to be replaced. My current glasses power on the right and left side is 1 point lower then it should.

A: Perhaps to really have your eyes look better you need to look beyound the eyebrows.

Your pictures show that you have "scleral show" where the white of your eyeball shows bellow the iris.  This should be corrected as well as the forehead.

Over the short term, you can adjust your brows by plucking them so they are more even as has been recommended.  In addition, your facial structure would appear better if you allowed your hair to be longer in the area of the upper sideburn and above the ears rather than having most of your hair higher.  This balances the visual effect of your strong eyes better.

There are multiple options which can be done

Is It Normal to Have Itchy Scalp 2 Years After Endoscopic Forehead Surgery?

My scalp has been itching for 2 years post endoscopic surgery . Some days it is worse than others. My dermotologist did not find any scalp problems. My meds are atenonol, crestor, pristique, and trazodone. My plastic surgeon has been telling me to take benydral for all this time. Also I had my doc remove the plastic dissolving screws 8 months ago, as I thought they were contributing to the severe itching. Should I be concerned?

A: Itching can usually be helped with "desensitization"

You can have persistant itching after almost any operation where the nerves are put on tension.

This includes face lifts, forehead lifts as well as various tucks.

We manage this issue which can come on rather late after these operations by instructing the patient to begin by gently massaging the area after applying a light skin lubricant.  They do this by the clock for five minutes slowly increasing the pressure until by the end of the session they are massaging to tolerance.

This is done twice daily and can be done in the shower with your shampoo.

This will often over three weeks either solve the problem or greatly decrease it.

Hopefully this will help you.
