I had an upper eyelid lift about 12 years ago. I went for a consultation, and the surgeon said the skin above my eye is too thin,so I can't have another upper eye lift. He suggested a direct brow lift, where the incision is made in my eyebrow, or directly above. The stitches disappear in about a year. This is the second surgeon who independently recommended this. This procedure is different from the usual brow lifts where the incision is either at the hairline, or in the scalp. Second question. My eyebrows are very light and thin. I was thinking about getting permanent eyebrows done. If anyone has experience with either of these, could you comment?
