My eyebrows are naturally very high, so are there any procedures other than brow lifts that will correct lateral hooding without raising my eyebrows even higher? I didn't have this issue until after I had an upper bleph with extended incisions (about 1/2 inch past the outer corner) and mainly it's just the left eye.
Answer: Lateral hooding A browlift is really the only procedure that addresses lateral hooding. Some surgeons try to remove skin from this area, but in my opinion, this looks unnatural and the scar is quite visible. The brow remains low with this approach and the results are inferior to a properly performed browlift.

Answer: Which procedures address lateral hooding of the eyes? The best procedure(s) is/are best decided after an in-person examination of the area. Options for lateral hooding are: temple lift (lateral brow lift), volumizing the area with fat transfer of filler (fat works the best), CO2 laser resurfacing, and sometimes removal of the excess skin through a primary or revision blepharoplasty. Botox can also be used to help improve lateral hooding in some cases.the link below offers some more information.I hope this helps.

Answer: Lateral brow falling If your outer brow is falling after upper lid blepheroplasty then you probably needed this area of the brow lifted in the first place. Outer brow elevation now may be required as long as your eyes will close properly.

Answer: Which procedures address lateral hooding of the eyes? Hooding is most often addressed either by removal of a very small amount of extra skin that is creating the hood or conservative elevation of the outer part of the eyebrow. It is not possible to make a specific recommendation without meeting you or at least seeing photos of the area that concerns you. Ideally, you can discuss with your original eyelid surgeon as they know your history better than any other surgeon. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon
