Fat is harvested from the patient's abdomen, hips or thighs using a specialized technique and set of instruments. The harvested fat is processed and then precisely administered into the soft tissues between the upper lid and eyebrow. A deep-set upper lid crease can be filled and thus dramatically rejuvenated, and the apparent position of the brow relative to the upper eyelid fold is increased, resulting in the appearance of a lifted, but natural, eyebrow. Such results cannot be achieved through conventional, excisional upper eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) or incisional browlift procedures.

How much does soft tissue fullness between the upper lid and brow affect eye-area youthfulness? Just look at the cover of most fashion magazines. The youthful upper lid is often completely concealed by soft tissue fullness between the upper lid and brow. Looking at your own photographs over time will also make clear the fact that as time passes, the soft tissue fullness between the upper lid and brow recedes, often quite dramatically. The upper lid area gradually appears more hollow, and therefore more aged.

As the brows are not artificially pulled on from above to achieve elevation, the results of "No-lift Browlift" surgery are quite natural-appearing. This innovative procedure, like no other designed for the brow / upper lid junction, is truly capable of achieving the goal of eye-area rejuvenation.
