Introduction
Drooping of the eyebrows causes the upper lids to bulge and descend until they seem to lie on the eyelashes themselves.

An eyebrow lift can dramatically improve this problem and result in eyes which appear larger and more youthful. An eyebrow lift will not correct excess skin of the inner part of the upper lid or pouching caused by fat herniation at their inner corners and it will not have any effect on the lower lid condition.

Nature of Operation
The patient is admitted on the morning of the operation. The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia. The incision is made just inside the upper extremity of the eyebrow. Sutures are removed after a week. An overnight stay in the clinic is usually required.

Postoperative Sequelae

Scar
It is important to realize that the resulting scar can be visible if not camouflaged by eye make-up. Make-up can be applied after a week.

Hair Loss
This may occur from the eyebrows but since most women pluck or shave this hair anyway it dose not appear to be a problem.
