Low-set Eyebrows on 30 Year Old

Endoscopic Browlift for flat or low brows in a young female

If you are unhappy with your brow appearance because the brows lack an arch or are too flat you have 2 options.

However, in general, in young patients (patient under 40 years of age), it is always best to try non-surgical options first. I agree with trying Botox. In the right hands, it can give you a very natural result, which is impossible to achieve with surgery. It is also reversible, so "no bridges are burned".

Eyebrow Lift Surgery in Younger Patient

There are no strict age guidelines for cosmetic facial surgery. Eyelid surgery or brow lift surgery for younger patients to improve appearance is generally not recommended. One potential option that is less invasive and may you give a temporary idea of brow lift surgery is Botox Cosmetic. Younger patients do, however, have cosmetic surgery to improve the shape or position of the eyebrows. Only after a comprehensive evaluation can a plastic surgeon help determine an appropriate option for... more

Brow contouring

Low-set eyebrows are not necessarily a bad thing, as long as they are full and complement your face. However, they can be lifted or contoured if desired. Consider endoscopic eyebrow/forehead lifting/contouring. Dr T.
