I am a 48 year old medium skin tone Caucasian and wanting to know if I’m more suited to an upper Blepharoplasty or a brow lift. I’m wanting a more youthful eye area and have dropping of one eyelid more than the other.

Answer: Extended brow lift Your eyebrows are below the level of the orbital rim and they should be above the level of the orbital rim in females. You would benefit from a brow lift. This will lower the hairline and decrease the vertical height of the forehead. The brow lift can also be extended down to the ear and do a lateral eyelid lift as well. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Browlift and blepharoplasty Thanks for your question. The answer is probably both. I think most patients who need blepharoplasty would probably benefit from at least a temporal browlift. That said, I do think you would have an nice result from blepharoplasty alone. I probably wouldn't recommend just a browlift, however. Dr. B
