The aim of this study is to see which brow height and arch shape is preferred as ideal or young-looking by Koreans. A survey was conducted between June and Dec 2014 on 186 women who visited the brow bar ("Benefit" of Incheon city). They were asked to choose which they believed ideal and youngest amongst the 3 brow archetypes according to their height and 4 types of modification of Anastasia (rotation of medial and lateral arms), which was illustrated. Approximately half (52.5%) of the respondents answered that their brow matches them very well or well. Most (81.2%) believed there might be a method to yield an ideal brow archetype and almost all (97.3%) would change the brow shape if the expert advised. The most preferred ideal brow height was of a middle height (63.2%, the distance from the lateral canthus to the lateral end of eyebrow, which was 2/3 of the eye width). The most preferred ideal brow arch shape was the arched type (57.6% arches on a line drawn from the center of the nose through the center of the pupil). The most preferred young-looking brow height was of an upper height (46.2%, the distance from the lateral canthus to the lateral end of eyebrow was 3/4 of the eye width) followed by a middle height (39.7%). The most preferred young-looking brow arch shape was the head-up position (53.3%, medial arm of the brow was rotated upward to the horizontal plane). The result of this study might be useful in facial rejuvenation surgeries as well as in brow esthetics or tattooing of the eyebrows.

Article Synopsis
- Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure for the eyelids that aims to enhance both aesthetic and functional aspects, focusing on how it affects vision and appearance.
- A study examined 32 patients before and after bilateral blepharoplasty, measuring parameters like marginal reflex distance and corneal exposure area through photographs, as well as intraocular pressure.
- Results indicated significant improvements in eyelid measurements and corneal astigmatism over a three-month period post-surgery, suggesting that upper eyelid blepharoplasty can effectively reduce eyelid droop and improve cosmetic outcomes.
Vertical Internal Brow Suspension: A Technique to Avoid Lateral Relapse After Endoscopic Brow Lift.
Aesthet Surg J
January 2025
Article Synopsis
- - This study presents the Vertical Internal Brow Suspension (VIBS), a new technique aimed at preventing lateral brow relapse after endoscopic brow lifts, a common issue leading to patient dissatisfaction.
- - A retrospective analysis of 118 brow lift cases showed significant increases in brow height without affecting forehead height, with minor complications like frontal suture extrusions and temporary hair loss.
- - The findings suggest that VIBS offers a stable and effective solution for maintaining brow elevation post-surgery, marking a significant improvement in upper face rejuvenation techniques.

- A retrospective review of 70 patients treated from 2012 to 2022 showed significant improvements in spinal alignment and pelvic parameters post-surgery, with key metrics indicating a restored sagittal balance and better overall spinal health.* -
- The results included a notable reduction in global kyphosis from 90.6° to 35.6° and significant clinical improvements in disability and quality of life as measured by established indices, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed treatment approach
Change in Brow Position After Upper Blepharoplasty With or Without Internal Browpexy.
Ann Plast Surg
October 2024
From the Department of Plastic, Reconstructive, and Aesthetic Surgery of Dokuz Eylul University, Izmir, Turkey.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the effects of upper blepharoplasty on eyebrow position, focusing on cases where internal browpexy is used in conjunction with the surgery.
- A total of 48 female patients were evaluated, with one group receiving only blepharoplasty and another receiving both blepharoplasty and internal browpexy, showing differing results in brow height changes.
- Findings suggest that while blepharoplasty alone can lead to a decreased brow position, combining it with internal browpexy helps to stabilize and slightly elevate the eyebrow, improving cosmetic outcomes.
