Same exact thing happened to me. You can see my photos too. I had a temporal browlift w upper bleph although never needed the browlift to begin with. I have wide scars now and an empty pocketbook.PS charges 500 for revisions. PISSED and angry.

Hi I did go to someone who specializes in eyes, an ASOPRS member and facial plastic surgeon. I was ill-advised to have a temporal brow lift, although only needed upper eyelid surgery. I had 4 consults, thought I did all my research. 2 drs said no browlift, the other 2 said to do it with the eyelids. Im 38, and have always had lots of extra skin but never had low brows. As I age, the volume loss seems to have made my skin lax, and giving the illusion of a low brow. You know, thats my assessment and I think Im right. I flip flopped so many times. My scars widened and the results lasted about a month too! Now instead of looking refreshed, I look the same, but now with scars.

Great idea about ethics reform! How are these surgeons allowed to get away with this?

I hear you!! I had a temporal browlift and flip flopped too, but I didn't ask for a browlift. I was concverned about lateral hooding of my eylids. 2 drs said teple lift and the other 2 said upper eyelid surgery and no temple lift. I wished I listened to the other 2 drs who advised against it. What was I thinking? The dr said the scars would be think lines. NOT. I have 2 wide scars (about 7 mm wide to be exact) on the sides of my head. I was lied to. My brows also do this weird thing where one looks higher than the other and then settles. It is not worth the surgery unless you have low brows. Dont do it if your brows are at or above your orbital rim.

Well, its been over a year now and I have NO results. My lateral browlift scars have spread and are wide, and I still have lateral hooding and look the same as I did before. I have to pay an additional 500.00 for revisions in office no anesthesia. PISSED CONSUMER!!!!
