Pre op - confident needs were communicated & desired outcome will be realized

Tomorrow will be another step in a long journey. My consultation last month was pleasant and informative. I left feeling confident that my needs were communicated, and that the desired outcome will finally be realized. My brows have descended from their naturally low position which also created laxity at the outer and inner eye; and the degree to which this affects appearance cannot be overstated. The eye area is the focal point of the face.

I had my brow tattoos removed recently which had been added along the upper edge of my natural brow. I also had the tattoos short in the center so I could draw the ends in the proper location even as my brows descended. My natural brows were extremely low and wide with their peak about one quarter of the distance from the medial ends. The tails were always low and with age they dropped and closed my eyes in along with the hooding of the skin. Their shape was unfortunate for my face shape and eye placement and even for my nose. The shape and placement of the brows has an outsized impact on the overall appearance of the face. For years I have plucked nearly all the hair of my brow hairs in an effort to "lift" them. I have also used makeup products to draw brows higher and to contour the skin flaps surrounding the eyes even after upper bleph.

This is not my first brow lift, but I had never heard of the "gliding brow lift" before last month so I will leave detailed information concerning my recovery here.

I am filled with excitement and am looking forward to being able to cut my makeup application time by over half. Nearly all my makeup application time was devoted to creating the illusion that the brow issue was not present. I am planning on powder brows after healing is complete. Relief is already washing over me.
