The use of muscle-hitch and internal gradual tension quilting sutures for eyebrow lift using an open temple approach.

INTRODUCTION: Brow lift incorporates an assessment and correction of multiple factors which differ considerably between patients. Various options for brow lift exist, each with its limitations when correcting the full spectrum of age-related changes to the eyebrow. Objectives & Hypotheses: To describe a brow lift technique that addresses the limitations seen in other techniques. STUDY DESIGN: Case series Methods: The technique was performed from 2022 to 2023 for 70 patients aged 40 to 77 years. All patients were female. RESULTS: All patients underwent the technique with satisfactory results and no complications. No infection of the wound or asymmetry was observed, and no patients required a revision operation. No major complications such as facial paralysis or necrosis was observed. CONCLUSION: This technique is a versatile procedure with good aesthetic outcomes which preserves facial animation and can be combined with other procedures while effectively elevating the lateral third of the eyebrow.
