ABSTRACT
The eyebrows and upper eyelids are closely related structures. It is therefore
recommended to develop a surgical plan based on evaluation of the eyebrows and the
periorbital area in order to achieve the desired result of a rested, natural appearance.
Different techniques have been used for eyebrow lifting. Each technique has
advantages, disadvantages and indications. A bibliographic search was conducted in
the databases offered by Infomed, such as Ebsco, Hinari, Pubmed, Google Scholar, as
well as ophthalmology and aesthetic surgery basic textbooks. Eyebrow lift by
transblepharoplasty has benefits such as a less invasive approach, less visible scars
after surgery, an easier dissection plane reducing intraoperative bleeding, reduced
surgery time and therefore fewer postoperative complications. On the other hand,
results are as lasting as those obtained by eyebrow lift surgery by endoscopic
techniques, but costs are markedly lower due to the non-use of an endoscope. The
present review was conducted with the purpose of broadening our knowledge about
aging of the facial upper third, as well as about the use of extended blepharoplasty as
a surgical alternative for periocular rejuvenation.
