My brows naturally arch inward like I'm scowling when I smile. Can a subtle brow lift be used to lift inner eyebrows to look more level, and soft? I know in Korea they do an endoscopic brow lift on younger people to give a soft but not surprised look. My eyes are also subtly hooded, so I can see how that would be benefited as well. I am 27
Answer: Brow lift A subtle brow lift can certainly help even out your eyebrows and place them in a natural position such that you don't look "angry" or "surprised". The brows evoke emotion - as such, depending on what angle they lay at you may appear to convey certain expressions. Angled downward - anger. angled upward - surprise. A youthful, attractive brow position that is neutral and well placed can enhance the appearance of your eyes while brightening up your face. Endoscopic brow lifts can be performed, and subtle results can be obtained in patients of all ages. To be honest with you, you can also try chemical brow lifts with botox/dysport. I find young patients like doing this more often than surgery. The downside, of course, is that it is not permanent. I suggest you discuss all your options during your consultation. Depending on the position of your hairline, the length of your forehead, resting position of your eyebrows, etc you may be a better candidate for one technique over another. Best of luck!

Answer: Yes! Facial Sculpting with Fillers | Brow Ptosis | Browlift | Upper Blepharoplasty | Eyelid Lift Hello and thank you for your question. A formal evaluation would be needed to determine the best treatment. There are both surgical and non-surgical options to correct this, depending on your exact situation. For less significant issues, there are nonsurgical treatments: To give the eyebrows a nice lift, we use injectable fillers to improve the eyebrow, upper eye, forehead and temple. A filler is placed on the bone and in the fat pads of these areas to contour and lift without it looking overdone. We use cannulas to limit pain and swelling. Surgery (browlift and/or upper blepharoplasty) is a great option for more significant improvement- for example if there is more substantial eyebrow drooping. I suggest getting a consultation with an experienced cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert, or an aesthetic facial plastic surgeon like Dr. Donald Groves; we are both located right here in Los Angeles. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Brow Lift Thank you for your question. Yes, a brow lift will decrease the number of creases on your forehead. It will allow your angry lines disappear. Keep in mind that a browlift can be performed in conjunction with a blepharoplasty to save you time and address your subtly hooded eyes. Also keep in mind that any facial plastic surgery will simply lessen the signs of aging, but not reverse the process itself. I suggest you consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon.Best wishes,

Answer: Can a brow lift/forehead lift correct angry brows? The "angry brow" is actually causes by the corrugator muscles causing frown lines just above the nos and between the eyes. The muscle can be remove by the endoscopic brow lift which also raises the brow, by direct excision with an incision in the frown lines themselves and through the upper eyelid incision while doing an upper eyelid lift. A brow lift without removing the corrugator muscle will do nothing for the "angry look." You need to be seen by an experienced certified plastic surgeon for an examination and evaluation. There are very subtle differences that have to be evaluated to give you your best options. Best of luck to you.

Answer: Browlift for angry look? Yes a Browlift will do this. If you have a high hairline an endoscopic lift will raise it further. If you have an Irregular Trichophytic Forehead Lift you can keep your hairline where it is without a visible scar. See a very experienced Browlift surgeon who does both operations.
