I'm 24 and my Eyebrows Very Droopy? (photo)

You have a full masculine brow. I agree that a browlift will run the risk of leaving you with a feminine appearing eyelid. A conservative blepharoplasty would be a better option for you at this age.

Hi, thanks for your question!
At 24, having droopy eyebrows that cover your eyelids can understandably affect both your appearance and your confidence — especially when it gives a tired or older look. This condition is usually genetic, as you mentioned with your mother, and it’s called brow ptosis (brow drooping).

From what I understand from your photos, you seem to be a suitable candidate for upper blepharoplasty. Upper blepharoplasty involves the removal of excess skin on the upper eyelid to correct drooping. If it's not sufficient, I can combine it with a brow lift. Of course, I prefer to conduct a physical examination before making decisions about these surgeries.

Hello ! Thank you for your question I don't think your eyebrows are too droopy, your eyelids are too thick, so I recommend upper eyelid surgery to make you look younger and more attractive.
Thank you ! regards

     The low set brows and the hooding can be altered with surgery, but this may not be the best thing for a young male.  An exam as well as discussion of expectations would be necessary.  A trial of Botox for a brow lift should be used prior to considering surgery.

Your eyebrows look very normal for a male. I would be cautious about having them elevated too much as that is a more feminine feature. One option would be to perform a conservative brow elevation through an upper eyelid incision. This would allow a slight elevation of the brow along with removal of the excess upper eyelid skin with one surgery and one incision. Be sure you want to undergo surgery for what to me looks quite normal.

There are surgical and non-surgical options to your heavy brow issue.  The non-surgical options in our office include Ulthera or Botox.  Ulthera (Ultherapy) is micropulsed ultrasound that is FDA approved to lift your skin.  It is my "go to" alternative for patients like you.  Botox can lift your brows.  Unfortunately "chemical browlifting" is unreliable at best.  As an experienced injector, I don't always manage to consistently lift the brow however I do get lucky regularly and get the patient a refreshed non-heavy look to their eyes.  Unfortunately, Botox only lasts approximately 3 months. 


The surgical options include endoscopic browlifting.  This procedure leaves small incisions in your scalp behind your hairline.  The muscles between the brows can be loosened or divided and the lateral aspect of the brow can be raised.  An open brow lift leaves a fine scar at your hairline and removes excess forehead skin thereby lifting your brow.  A direct browlift can be done either through a direct approach leaving a scar above your brow or can be done through an upper eyelid incision used for an upper eyelid lift.  




My recommendation is to try Ulthera and if in a year you aren't satisfied, then seek out a board certified plastic surgeon and get a consult to review the surgical options.  Best Wishes!!

Its difficult to decide based on the limited photos you provided, but you have a combination of lowered brow as well as fullness of upper eye lid. To decide which is better, try repositioning your brows manually to see if you like the result. Endoscopic brow lift leaves no visible scars and can be used to lift different parts of brows as needed so it is matched to your needs. At your age I would be hesitant to recommend excision of eye lids.

A mini Irregular Trichophytic Forehead Lift is what would best raise your brows without leaving a scar since hair will grow thru it.  You do NOT need a blepharoplasty. 

As opposed to the female brow, a man's brow is aesthetically acceptable at, or even slightly below, the orbital rim. The male brow may or may not be arched laterally, and most commonly it is relatively horizontal in orientation. In cases where the male brow has descended well below the orbital rim, and the upper lid tissues appear heavy and redundant, a browlift can be an effective means of rejuvenating the upper third of the face. A great deal of care must be exercised, however, to avoid overdoing and thereby feminizing a male brow.

Although men are much less often good candidates for browlifts than women, endoscopic or trans-blepharoplasty removal of the corrugator (or vertical frown line) muscles is as applicable to males as it is to females, to permanently soften or completely eliminate vertical frown lines between the eyebrows.
