With respect to facial anatomy, there are measurements and positions of the eyebrows that are regarded as normal. In women, a youthful feminine brow is considered to be at the level or above the upper boney margin and has a higher arch towards the outside tail of the brow.
With facial ageing, there can be the descent of the brow as a combination of gravity and facial expressions that results in a lower and flatter brow. In men, the eyebrow position is youth is lower than in women with a flatter shape.
Although we know these are common positions of the eyebrows, the natural position of the brow is very variable and any brow lift procedures need to be customised for an individual based on their unique changes with facial ageing.
In the past brow surgery was over-used as a substantial proportion of people naturally have low eyebrows, including may famous actors and actresses, George Clooney, Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman and Grace Kelly. In people who always had low eyebrows, it is unwise to have brow lift surgery as this procedure can change a person’s appearance by giving them a surprised look.
Grace Kelly had relatively low eyebrows in her youth. Dr De Silva would advise against forehead or brow lift surgery in patients with naturally occurring low eyebrows and the surgery can change one’s appearance.

Upper Blepharoplasty involves the removal of excess upper eyelid soft tissues (skin, muscle laxity and fat bags) to improve the upper eyelid rejuvenation
Volume augmentation with techniques including fat transfer
Wrinkle injection for reduction of dynamic lines associated with facial expression
Skin resurfacing. Facial ageing often results in sun and environmental damage to the skin surrounding the eyelids. Resurfacing the skin results in a natural rejuvenation by reducing crepe skin, pigment spots and pore size
Facelift or neck lift surgery
