Abstract

Brow ptosis cannot be ignored when evaluating a patient for rejuvenation of the upper third of the face. There are several techniques to address brow ptosis, and midforehead browlift has been performed for decades. It is a technically straightforward procedure and, with graded resection, can be used to lift any part of the brow and address the medial brow depressors. This technique has special utility in the treatment of brow ptosis associated with facial paralysis.
