Abstract

The internal eyebrow lift has gained popularity since its first description in 1982. It allows brow stabilization and some elevation through an upper blepharoplasty incision. The procedure also minimizes temporal eyebrow descent that may occur due to eyelid skin and soft tissue removal after upper blepharoplasty. The procedure is safe, quick, and long-lasting and it does not require expensive equipment or additional incisions.

Key words
