Will a gliding brow lift work for me & will it affect my forehead? (Photo)

Question

I’m 43 yr old and my forehead feels really heavy from constantly lifting my brows for an arch and to help me see better. I have a high forehead and I wear my hair up 24/7 so per several MD endoscopic and coronal lifts won’t be good for me. What about a gliding brow lift, though? Will that affect my forehead? How long do they last? thanks.

As we age, our eyelids naturally sag and droop. A combination approach would be best to see visible improvement. In terms of non-surgical treatment options, I would recommend a Chemical Brow Lift (using Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, or Jeuveau) and filler injections to rejuvenate the temples, eyebrow, eyelid, eye troughs, upper eye hollows, and forehead. I typically combine this with Ultherapy and thread lifting to lift the brow; RF and skin tightening laser treatments to stimulate collagen production and rejuvenate the skin; and laser or superficial RF devices for improvements in texture, color, and any crepey skin around the eyes as needed. In some cases, surgery is the best solution to achieve the desired results. See an expert for a formal consultation. Best, Dr. Emer.​

Much more information is needed, such as a full set of facial photographs, especially of your forehead from all different directions. From the limited photograph, it appears that the height of your brows appears adequate And it does not appear that you even need a brow lift. You have significant asymmetry of your upper eyelids what can be addressed with an upper blepharoplasty under local anesthesia to make them more symmetrical.
