    Author: Chisholm BB, Lew D.
    Journal: J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 1996 Mar; 54(3):281-4. PubMed ID: 8600233.
    Abstract:
    PURPOSE: This report evaluates the efficacy of the modified supratrichial brow lift technique. The indications for the procedure, as well as the advantages, effectiveness, and complications are reviewed. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Thirty-six modified supratrichial brow lift procedures were performed bilaterally on 34 female and two male patients. The procedure was used in conjunction with a blepharoplasty in 32 patients and alone in four patients. RESULTS: The procedure improved the cosmetic result in the 32 patients with lateral brow ptosis who had a concomitant upper eyelid blepharoplasty. No complications were encountered. CONCLUSION: The modified supratrichial brow lift can improve the cosmetic result in patients with lateral brow ptosis undergoing an upper eyelid blepharoplasty.
