Abstract
Ptosis of the brow-glabellar tissues with or without vertical and horizontal wrinkling accompanies aging in other areas of the face. The direct browlift is effective in elevating and shaping brow tissues, but leaves a scar at the brow-forehead juncture and does little for glabellar deformity. The coronal forehead lift allows the correction of brow-glabellar ptosis and wrinkling with camouflage of the scar in the scalp. Male pattern hairline, thinning hair, or a high hairline may contraindicate this approach. Our technique for treating these patients is the midforehead lift. We review the anatomical considerations, patient selection, and surgical technique, showing representative cases.
