With a level browlift, the hairline must either go higher or lower depending upon placement of the incision. If the incision is placed at the hairline, frontal area, the skin that is removed is all nonhair-bearing skin, and the hairline can be moved closer to the face. If the patient has a low hairline, the incision is usually placed behind the hairline so as to raise the hairline. This is done by removing hair-bearing skin and therefore raising the hairline. Vertical and horizontal mattress sutures can be used to give a meticulous closure of the incision so as not to have any scar detectability.
