The upper face occupies about one third of the surface area of the face. It is comprised of the forehead, temples, brow, glabella and upper eyelids, as well as underlying anatomical structures. With time, the upper face succumbs to photodamage, skin thinning, dynamic and static rhytides, gravitational changes, soft tissue loss and bone loss, resulting in pigmentation, crepiness, wrinkles, sagging, and a gaunt appearance. Surgical procedures, such as blepharoplasty and brow lift, and non-surgical interventions, such as neurotoxins, dermal fillers, ablative and non-ablative lasers, ultrasound therapy and advanced skin treatments, can both transform and rejuvenate the upper face. Prevention as well as correction should be discussed when working with patients of various ages and needs. Both anatomical ‘danger zones’ and potential adverse events associated with procedures for upper facial rejuvenation should be understood so that aesthetic practitioners are equipped to deliver optimal treatment outcomes.
