  • The study aimed to assess the long-term effectiveness of Endotine-assisted endoscopic brow lift combined with upper lid blepharoplasty in increasing brow height.
  • Researchers analyzed pre- and post-operative photos of 35 patients, measuring brow height changes using Emotrics software, and compared these results to control groups.
  • Results showed an average brow elevation of 1.6 mm after surgery that remained stable for up to 55 months, with no notable differences based on gender, age, or side.
