Featured Cases Before & After Case 102

Large, open eyes are a universal sign of youth and beauty. No wonder cosmetic procedures around the eyes and forehead are so popular, such as Botox® Cosmetic and eyelid surgery. In addition, the eyes may be the first area to show signs aging with wrinkles and sagging tissue. The eye area gradually becomes smaller, narrower, or tired appearing with time. Eyebrow descent occurs slowly and will obscure youthful and beautiful eyes. A brow lift surgery can help "open" up the eyes to rejuvenate the face, either alone or combined with eyelid surgery. A minimally invasive brow lift surgery with a small endoscopic camera achieves a natural look with small incisions hidden in the scalp.

This Washington DC area patient had always felt her eyebrows were relatively low, which became even lower with age. The excess skin tissue in the upper eyelid area is due to combination of excess skin and the eyebrow "pushing" down the upper eyelid skin. She was referred to facial plastic surgeon Dr. Chaboki to review surgery options. She underwent an upper blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) and endoscopic brow lift. The combined brow lift and upper eyelid procedure allowed her eyes to be more open and youthful for natural results. After photographs are three months after plastic surgery.
