I have excess skin under my brows and have been to two doctors for consultation. One is recommending a Bilateral Temporal Brow Lift and the other recommends an Upper Lid Blepharoplasty. Can someone tell me the pros and cons of each proceedure and how to decide what one is most appropriate for me. I am a 72 year old female and I'm considering having something done because I find that I lift my brows a lot when reading.

Answer: Brow lift or upper blepharoplasty. Well I had the argument 35 years ago and it seems a lot of surgeons still do not get this. 1..gravity works vertically so the brow lift you need isNOT temporal but rather an Irregular Trichophytic Forehead Lift which we developed for patients like you so your hairline is not raised and you do NOT see a scar. 2. You could hide a "nest of robins" in your upper lid sulcus so a blepharoplasty is NOT needed.
