Surgical attempts to elevate the brow complex are usually successful medially, but often fail laterally. The "modified lateral brow lift" is a hybrid technique, incorporating featur...

Aims & Objective: To compare the cosmetic and functional results of frontalis suspension in congenital blepharoptosis using Silicone sling versus polypropylene. Materials Methods: A retrospective study, that was conducted at tertiary care hospital from 1st January 2018 to December 2021, thirty two patients with age ranging 5-50 years, ptosis having levator function 4 mm or less were randoml...

This analysis provided objective evidence that the ideal youthful brow peak has migrated laterally over time to lie at the lateral canthus. There...

This article presents a review of the contribution of the periorbital musculature and brow depressors to the overall brow aesthetics. Special focus is given to the role of transblepharoplasty brow lift as well as myotomy of the corrugator and procerus muscles. The authors' preferred surgical technique and patient results are reviewed in detail.
