Visual testing documented impairment to my peripheral vision. My eyebrows were below my eye orbit. My opthalmologist recommend a brow lift and upper blepharoplasty. Medicare approved payment for the procedures. The plastic surgeon insisted on performing an endoscopic brow lift. My visual field has not improved, brows are still below the orbital rim & I look through my eyelashes and eyebrows. How do I discuss this with my surgeon? I am disconsolate. Can a revision open brow lift be performed?

Massaging can help improve the scar appearance, but I'd recommend that you consider microneedling +/- PRF for scar improvement. This minimally invasive procedure can easily be done under topical anesthesia.
