Advanced Surgical Facial Rejuvenation

Abstract

The author has a simple new technique and concept, that of the endobrow lift, which is the direct elevation of the brow through the upper blepharoplasty incision. The Endobrow Lift is a procedure that restores a more youthful, refreshed look to the area above the eyes by correcting drooping of the brows. The main advantage of this procedure is avoiding an extrascar or hair loss that other procedures might cause.
