Forehead Rejuvenation

Detailed knowledge of forehead anatomy is the basis for rejuvenation strategies of the forehead region. Eyebrow position is the net result of forces that depress the brow, forces that raise the brow, and the structures that tether the eyebrow in place.Brow depression is caused by glabellar frown musles, the orbicularis and gravity. Frontalis is the only effective brow elevator.Attractiveness of the periorbital region is intimately related to eyebrow shape and eyebrow position as it relates to the upper eyelid and the upper lid sulcus. Aging causes enlargement of the orbital aperture as well as changes in eyebrow shape. Key elements of forehead rejuvenation are the attenuation of frown muscle action and the repositioning the ptotic eyebrow elements. Forehead rejuvenation can be accomplished using a combination of surgical and nonsurgical techniques.In this presentation, we describe techniques and different concepts of forehead rejuvenation with patient photos we have taken during the procedure.
