Evaluating the results of eyebrow lift by combining methods of subcutaneous flap and thread support in patients with droopy eyebrows.

Background: Brow lift also known as eyebrow lift was first described in 1919, and since then, many changes have been made in the methods of doing it, although there is still no agreed method of absolute superiority for eyebrow lift. Most previous studies have reported the results generally qualitatively and based on patient or surgeon satisfaction. In this study, by combining two less complicated methods of eyebrow lift, we have evaluated the quantitative results.

Scalp Advancement and the Pretrichial Brow Lift.

This article will review considerations for scalp advancement, or forehead shortening, when done in combination with a brow lift. The author's technique for anterior hairline reshaping is presented with particular focus on simultaneous reduction of temporal recession.

What Neurotoxins Have Taught Us About the Brow: The Reintroduction and Review of the Transpalpebral Browpexy.

Introduction: The use of neuromodulators has grown substantially in our society, particularly in the temporary treatment of brow ptosis. This study revisits the use of the transpalpebral browpexy for upper face and brow rejuvenation in the context of what has been learned from neuromodulators.

Methods: A retrospective review of 97 subjects was conducted who had transpalpebral browpexy performed for lateral brow ptosis.

Objective Brow Height Measurements Following Pretrichial Brow Lift and Upper Lid Blepharoplasty.

Background: As the ptotic brow drops below the supraorbital rim, it can exacerbate dermatochalasis by pushing the adjacent skin of the upper lid further down.

Aim: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcomes associated with a combined pretrichial brow lift and upper lid blepharoplasty in patients with dermatochalasis and mild to moderate brow ptosis.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective case series of 46 patients with dermatochalasis and mild to moderate brow ptosis treated with a combined, bilateral pretrichial brow lift and upper lid blepharoplasty from January 2008 to December 2011.

The open brow lift.

The open brow lift procedure is discussed in terms of relevant surgical anatomy, preoperative evaluation, and detailed surgical technique for pretrichial coronal forehead lift with hair-bearing temporal lift, direct incisional brow lift, and coronal brow lift. Complications are discussed, and information is presented on patient evaluation and expectations, with a discussion of what patients can expect before and after brow lift surgery.

An aesthetically possible alternative approach for craniomaxillofacial trauma: the "pretrichial incision".

Frontal sinus and supraorbital rim fractures are common in facial trauma patients. Coronal incision is the standard approach for surgical management of these injuries. Nevertheless, with this incision, complications can occur as wide scars and alopecia.

Browlift--a South East Asian experience.

Background: To describe the indications, techniques and outcomes of various browlift procedures in a predominantly East-Asian community.

Patients And Methods: Retrospective review of patients who underwent browlift procedures performed by 2 oculoplastic surgeons or under their direct supervision, in a tertiary referral hospital in South East Asia from 2002 to 2007.

Results: Forty-six patients (30 female, 16 male) had browlift surgery for 89 sides from 2002 to 2007.

Endoscopic pretrichial brow lift: surgical indications, technique and outcomes.

Purpose: To present an alternative technique for rejuvenating the upper face of patients with high hairlines.

Methods: A chart review was performed to ascertain the longevity and aesthetic quality of endoscopically assisted pretrichial brow lifts. The charts of a single surgeon were reviewed (2000 to 2003).

Current treatments for brow ptosis.

Purpose Of Review: In this text, we describe and compare the most current brow-lifting techniques, including endoscopic, coronal, and pretrichial approaches, as well as subperiosteal and subgaleal dissection planes, and we discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each.

Recent Findings: Over the past decade, we have witnessed tremendous advances in the anatomic understanding of brow ptosis and in the procedures used to correct the resulting functional and aesthetic deformities.

The forehead lift: endoscopic versus coronal approaches.

Rejuvenation surgery of the upper one-third of the face can be accomplished by a number of well-known techniques and approaches. The objectives of this study were to: (1) determine if endoscopic-assisted forehead lifts achieve the same degree of correction as the coronal/pretrichial forehead lifts, (2) to assess the effect of concurrent blepharoplasty on brow elevation, and (3) to evaluate long-term results of coronal/ pretrichial forehead lifts. The study was a retrospective blinded comparison of pre- and postoperative photographs of patients who underwent forehead lifts.

The coronal forehead lift--modifications and results.

The coronal forehead lift has produced excellent results in the rejuvenation of the upper face. The problem of brow and glabellar ptosis, as well as the problem of frontoglabellar rhytids, are directly addressed with this procedure while producing no visible scars. In addition, the pretrichial modification of it can be used without alteration in the hairline.
