An oculoplastic surgeon recommended a partial pretrichial brow lift for me - others have recommended the endoscopic brow lift. The dr who recommended the partial pretrichial brow lift said that my skin is very think and the pretrichial would give me a better result. I have one eyebrow that is lower than the other one and I would like to have my eyebrows more symmetric. Could you tell me the difference between an endoscopic brow lift and a partial pretrichial brow lift?

Answer: Browlift procedure First, it's important to make sure you're a candidate for a brow lift procedure, so a full set of photographs are required. A brow lifting procedure addresses leveling out asymmetrical eyebrows, raising or lowering the hairline, adjusting the frontalis, corrugator, procerus muscles of the forehead and can even add fascia grafts underneath the vertical corrugator lines between the eyebrows. With a browlift procedure, the hairline must shift upwards if it's performed with an endoscope or coronal approach behind the hairline. If the incision is placed at the hairline, the bald forehead skin can be removed and the hairline lowered. For many examples, please see the link and the video below

Answer: Pretrichial brow lift I have come to prefer the pretrichial or hairline brow lifts it targets the elevation of the principal goal of the surgery, the lateral brow. It has greater capability to address brow asymmetry but does produce some forehead numbness.
