I can't find anyone who does this. Why? I have a high forehead. My brows are in an excellent position medial however. It is just the lateral brows that have melted down the sides of my face. I do not want my brow lifted medially. Dr Martin cuts an ellipse from the skin in the temporal region at the hairline.His incision is pre-trichial. I'm interested in hearing what doctors that do brow lifts think. Thank you.
Answer: The Trichophytic browlift
Hi Dianne, I agree with the others that there is a potential risk of visible scars when the incision is extended to the more lateral temple region. I was a member of the group that originally developed endoscopic plastic surgery procedures and have been performing endoscopic browlifts for years. I will add a pretrichal incision to lower the hairline where indicated. You say that you have temporal hooding in the eyebrow and a high forehead. If a pretrichal or "trycophytic" procedure is recommended, you might consider hair transplants to that area after the browlift healed to hide the scar if it remained visible

Answer: Brow Lift
This is a great procedure and I dont think the scar even if its bad is really an issue. If your forehead is that high maybe consider doing a classic coronal brow lift

Answer: Lift the Lateral Brow with a Peri-temporal Trichophytic Brow Lift?
The lateral trichophytic brow lift in the right patient has the advantage of not distorting the hairline and obviously improves the lateral hooding. The scar in poor scar formers may be an issue.

Answer: Pretrichial lateral brow lifting
Pretrichial (trichophytic) lateral forehead/brow lifting is a very good effective technique that is also safe. It is the most common technique that I use in my practice in females. The incision is made along the lateral temple hairline, which heals and hides very well. It can be done under local anesthesia.
